I think that what you want to do is CONVERT it. Have a look at CONVERT in BOL. What you want to look at is the style option. You will need to CONVERT it to style 101, which is the US format.Tara |

You should validate the date in ASP before sending it to the stored procedure.IF IsDate(strMyDate) Then ' Valid date! ( to ASP anyway )End IfYou didn't say if you're using stored procedures or not. There are a few other ways to convert a date string into datetime format depending on your method.Sam |
