Ok, just to be safe and document mappings in any event, I'll keep the complete list of mappings in the exporter. I'll only test with the types that work in a bufdataset...

Agreed, but you cannot every kind of data type, for that you will probably need the various databases... and hopefully a continuous integration server to run the tests...

Db.pas line 2020 gives you the mapping between ftxxx and corresponding Tfield descendant. This is a default mapping but AFAIK no db implementation is actually overriding this. Since there are a lot of ftxxx mapped to only a few TField classes, the testcases can be reduced considerably. It'll help also in reducing the long 'case fieldtype' statements you have now.
