Gang - 

I'm generating date and time variables from scanned forms.  Currently, 
the date and time values are as follows: 06/26/2006 and 11:30 AM.  I've 
written VBA code to combine them into a single string.  The resulting 
variable - datetime - is exported automatically to Access.  When it 
get's there it looks like "06/26/2006 11:30 AM".  Problem is, it is a 
string.  If I set up the database before it is populated with records 
and set the datetime variable to date/time format, it throws an error - 
saying invalid data type.  Clearly the ":" and perhaps the "AM" are 
text and the only way I can get the data into Access is as a string.  
That's no good.  My question for the group is - what does the data have 
to look like so that Access sees it as a valid date/time format?

Any help at all on this would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Mike
