No, this is the default ORACLE format for retrieved dates. > Is > there a workaround that doesn't involve rewriting the query? No, but modifying the query to use a date format is actually the best solution. This would give you something like: SELECT TO_CHAR(DATE, 'DD-MON-YY HH:MI:SS') AS DATE_TIME FROM TBL Look up the definition of the TO_CHAR function for the full list of format elements available for formatting DATEs.
