This must be my error, but I am not seeing it. Your input is requested. I have a table named Penalties with a column named DateIssued and a datatype of DATE. A select operation shows dates such as 4/6/1992 and 12/15/1993.
To delete all rows with dates earlier than 1/1/2005 I used the statement: DELETE FROM Penalties WHERE DateIssued < '1/1/2005'; but it did not delete the records. Doesn't matter if I use single quotes, double quotes, or no quotes. Trying to figure out where my syntax is faulty I tried selecting those records, but none are presented. I'm sure it's a simple user error in my syntax, but I don't see what that error is and I don't find anything in Rick van der Lans's or Mike Owen's books that's different from what I've tried. I'm sure it's a head-slapping, obvious error so please point it out to me.
