Safest method i found:

UPDATE ...DateCreated=
TO_DATE('#DateFormat(form.DateCreated,"dd/mm/yyyy")#','DD/MM/YYYY')

SELECT ...WHERE trunc(DateCreated) =
TO_DATE('#DateFormat(variables.Startdate,"dd/mm/yyyy")#','DD/MM/YYYY')

Pascal

PS: US citizens can use the mask DD-MM-YYYY if they like, but with this
method it really doesn't matter

How in the HECK do you enter dates into Oracle?

I have tried several variations of a simple date in SQL Plus, and
nothing seems to work. I keep getting an error saying Not a valid month.
This is with raw SQL, not going through CF.

SELECT * FROM tblMainEntry,TblDetailEntry
WHERE tblMainEntry.EmpID = 60597 
AND tblDetailEntry.REcordDate = '11-30-2001';


DAMMIT to HELLS!
