Thank you Rick!! I think the light maybe coming on here lately ;-). I think I've done about all I can do with being self taught for the most part and trying to figure it all out by myself ;-), coming out of the shadows and asking questions here after I've exhausted trying everything my little brain can come up with is definitely helping things to click for me.

The only purpose of createODBCDateTime() is if you're putting a date time object in a query and you're *NOT* using CFQUERYPARAM. so above, you'd be just fine with: #DateFormat(myDate, "mmmm dd, yyyy")# #TimeFormat(myDate,"hh:mm:ss tt")# Rick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:260094 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
