Why would you care about the internal format of a Date in the DB? Let ActiveRecord and your database adapter take care of that. If your code deals with dates, use Date or DateTime -- not a String masquerading as a date. :-) And apologies in advance if I've misunderstood your issue. -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ hassan.schroe...@gmail.com http://about.me/hassanschroeder twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
