I would suggest you to go through the AX 2009 upgrade guide available at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/details.aspx?FamilyID=d9dae144-55b4-432d-b11e-f65ddb2d1b9c&displaylang=en
There is a specific section devoted to - upgrading date and time table field
pairs into UtcDateTime, in this document.
Hope this helps.
