CF is most probably using a US dateformat (depends on the settings of
your server).

TRY:
<cfset targ=#CreateDate("2001","12","01")#>
<cfoutput>#Dateformat(targ,"dd/mm/yyyy")#</cfoutput>
<cfset compare=DateDiff("d",targ,Now())>

Subject: I hate DateDiff!


Hi,
No matter what I try this will not work for me.
Can anybody point out what is wrong with this code.
<cfset targ=#DateFormat("01/12/2001","dd/mm/yyyy")#>
<cfoutput>#targ#</cfoutput>
<cfset compare=DateDiff("d",#targ#,#DateFormat(Now(),"dd/mm/yyyy")#)>

It gives me weird output dates - of -233.

Thanks,
Declan
