I've researched the OpenDBX source files and have found that not all column 
types are being returned. It seems most databases supported have this anomaly. 
I'm curious as to why?

 It doesn't make sense to me why each database interface program wouldn't 
support all types  for that database. I must not understand something. Please 
educate me. 

Thanks, 

Brad Selfridge
