          You might want to check the SQL INSERT query syntax.

            What error are you getting? What's the underlying data type in this field? What's the table definition (your query only stands a chance of working if there's only a date field in the table test)?

                Don't worry, you mixed days and months. There is no 23. month since I know. TO_DATE('12/23/2010', 'mm/dd/yyyy') or TO_DATE('23/12/2010', 'dd/mm/yyyy') try it manually before using it: select TO_DATE('12/23/2010', 'mm/dd/yyyy') from dual; Regards Ralf

                      Your query is allright IF a) You have only one column in table to insert b) You have function called TO_DATE created to give you supposed output compatible with column you have c) Your function taking two parameters as a INPUT.

                        AND d) the parameters to to_date are consistent. TO_DATE('12/23/2010','dd/mm/yyyy') is no good. :)

                          Are you using SQL Server? TO_DATE is Oracle syntax. The equivalent in SQL Server is CONVERT(datetime, '12/23/2010', 101)

                                A few thoughts.

                                1. Is this field actually a datetime?
                                2. Is it a datetime in your application?
                                3. What does the format of the date matter?

                                If the field is a datetime, and it's being passed in as a datetime then you don't need to do anything. Just insert it as it is - the only reason you'd convert it is if you were passing it in as a string, and you should really avoid this and pass it in as a datetime instead. The format of the date is immaterial - just store it in the universal date format; choosing the format is only relevant when you display the date to the user and you should use the users locale to do this.

                                I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.

                                  The bad thing is that the "S" in "SQL" means "structured", not "standard". Look at the "SQL Zoo" for the SQL code in many databases, e.g. http://sqlzoo.net/howto/source/u.cgi/tip218780[^]

                                    Maybe because of semicolon you have missed. For your info : Oracle TO_DATE
