    <p>Currently, the jTDS JDBC driver (1.2.5) against Microsoft SQL Server 2008 appears to incorrectly report the data type for DATE columns as NVARCHAR. </p> <p>It probably behaves the same for both earlier versions of jTDS and SQL Server (2005, 2000)</p> <ul> <li><p>Are there any workarounds for this that don't require switching to a different driver (for example Microsoft's own driver) or patching the jTDS driver? </p></li> <li><p>Also I would like to avoid having to perform queries against the data dictionary (INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS view, etc.) to look up the data type information (and possibly cross-referencing against the output of "<strong>exec sp_datatype_info</strong>" in order to retrieve the SQL data types)</p></li> </ul> <p>A quick perusal of the jTDS outstanding bugs doesn't indicate whether this will be fixed or not.</p> <p>An answer to this question: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7885459/jdbc-jtds-bug-for-columns-of-type-date-and-timex">JDBC - JTDS bug ? For columns of type date and time(x)</a> seems to indicate that this doesn't occur in SQL Server 2005.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
