Try setting it as an environmental variable. It is critical that this get done prior to initiating the connection. It should be something like: $ENV{NLS_DATE_FORMAT}='/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'; -Original Message- From: Doug Hughes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 27, 2003

As a follow-up, I noticed that setting the nls_lang environmental variable causes the dates to be displayed differently. Doesn't make any sense to me. You can force the date format with something like this select COUNTRY_ISO3_C,ACCT_NAME_N,LANG_ISO_C,to_char(ACCT_UPDATE_S,'DD-MON-:HH:MI:SS

I'm a fan of the in statement. It's easy to construct the statement with a join (I always need quotes around my values), and my guess is that it is more efficient. There is a limit in my configuration (I think its the oracle that kills it, but it may be perl), that at about 1,000 entries, it b
