QOTD: Any clod can have facts, having an opinion is an art ! -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 4:55 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L List, I am trying to do an export query with a date field. I have tired different syntax. I know there are 500+ records with a date of 11/06/2003 in this table. What is wrong with my query since it returns no records? I have done this with character fields with no problem. What am I missing in the date syntax? $exp user/pwd file=test.dmp log=test.log tables=processing_messages query=\"where message_date=to_date\(\'11/06/2003\'\, \'MM/DD/YYYY\'\)\" example output: Export: Release 8.1.7.0.0 - Production on Thu Nov 6 15:30:21 2003 (c) Copyright 2000 Oracle Corporation.
