XML Schema Primitive Data Types to Visual FoxPro Data Types

XML data type Facets Description Visual FoxPro data type
anyURI length, pattern, maxLength, minLength, enumeration, whiteSpace Represents a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) as defined by RFC 2396. An anyURI value can be absolute or relative and might have an optional fragment identifier. Memo. Visual FoxPro applies a hyperlink to a URI in a Memo.

boolean pattern, whiteSpace Represents Boolean values, which are either true or false. Logical
date enumeration, pattern, minInclusive, minExclusive, maxInclusive, maxExclusive, whiteSpace Represents a calendar date. The pattern for date is CCYY-MM-DD with an optional time zone indicator as allowed for dateTime. Date
dateTime enumeration, pattern, minInclusive, minExclusive, maxInclusive, maxExclusive, whiteSpace This representation might be followed immediately by letter "Z" to indicate Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or to indicate the time zone. For example, the difference between the local time and UTC, immediately followed by positive or negative sign (+ or -), followed by the difference from UTC represented as hh:mm. Minutes are required. If the time zone is included, both hours and minutes must be present. DateTime
decimal enumeration, pattern, totalDigits, fractionDigits, minInclusive, minExclusive, maxInclusive, maxExclusive, whiteSpace Represents arbitrary precision numbers. Numeric, Currency, or Character
double pattern, enumeration, minInclusive, minExclusive, maxInclusive, maxExclusive, whiteSpace Represents double-precision 64-bit floating-point numbers. Double
duration enumeration, pattern, minInclusive, minExclusive, maxInclusive, maxExclusive, whiteSpace Represents duration of time. The pattern for duration is PnYnMnDTnHnMnS, where nY represents the number of years, nM the number of months, nD the number of days, T the date/time separator, nH the number of hours, nM the number of minutes, and nS the number of seconds.

For example, to indicate a duration of 1 year, 2 months, 3 days, 10 hours, and 30 minutes, you write: P1Y2M3DT10H30M. You could also indicate a duration of minus 120 days as -P120D.
