The following code gives me the error "syntax error converting datetime
to character string" im using access 2003 as a front end and sql server
2000 as a backend
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblDeal (dealRecipient, dealStartDate,
dealEndDate, dealType) VALUES (" & Me.txtrec.Value & "," & "'#" &
Me.dealStartDat e.Value & "#'" & "," & Me.dealEndDate. Value & "," & "'"
& Me.dealType & "'" & ")"
The specific part its complaining about is "'#" &
Me.dealStartDat e.Value & "#'"
I don't know how to format it for a date in the sql statement any other
way then that, can anyone please help?

Is this a pass-through query (i.e.: running on SQL Server)? If so, SQL
Server uses ', not #, to delimit dates.

Also formatting:
{d'2005-05-31'}
or just plain
'20050531'
You might get away with American format but given the confusion between
American and British format dates I'd stick to international format just
so's the code can look correct at a glance.

I know that given a FormatString and a DateTime you can use
DateTime.ToString(...) to convert the DateTime to a String. My question is
how can you turn that around? Given a String and a FormatString, how can
you convert the String back to a DateTime? DateTime.Parse(...) doesn't use
the FormatString.
Now admitedly, if the format string is just "MM", it can't be done. But if
the format string is "yyyyMMdd", or "ddMMMyyyy hhmmsst", it...

Jay and Herfried are telling me every time when I use CDate that using the

They told also that in a business situation it is better to use

Hi ,
I have two Sql Server 2000 on seperate machines ,
First one accepts datetime format like ("dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm:ss")
And Second one accepts datetime format like ("MM.dd.yyyy hh:mm:ss")

2- Do regional Settings affect Sql date format?

My question is: wouldn't keeping the datetime variables all the time in

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
