Get size of a data field

I can get the value, fieldname, typename for a field from a DbDataReader...

While Reader.Read
For i As Integer = 0 To Reader.FieldCount - 1
value = Reader(i).ToString
fieldname = Reader.GetName(i)
typename = Reader.GetDataTypeName(i)
If typename = "datetime" And value <"" Then
Dim d As DateTime = Reader.GetDateTime(i)
value = d.ToString(DFmt)
If fieldname = "ModifyDateTime" And Not tables Is
Nothing Then
timentries.AddEntry(SvrDb + fieldname, value, True)
End If
End If
AddRow(fieldname, value.Trim, typename)
Next
End While

How can I get a field size or length? (not the length of a given value)

Thanks,
Jon
