Rowversion Data Type

I've been using timestamps for concurrency since I started using SF. Now I have a new project and since timestamps have been depreciated I want to use rowversion. The DDT does not have a data type rowversion in the drop down when creating a new field. If I want to use rowversion for concurrency, what data type do I select for the rowversion field? I Googled rowversion data type but couldn't come up with a single answer. some articles say timestamp and rowversion are the same, another article said rowversion is a varbinary(8). What does SF expect?

Hi Larry,

SF RowVersion fields are Integers.  Check this thread where Trent explain a bit about it: http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost16677.aspx
