Do the Regional Settings on your server allow this text to be recognized as
a date? I.E., does this statement raise an error?

Response.Write CDate("18/10/2005")

If this statement runs without error, see
http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2313

Otherwise, you will need to use basic string functions (Left, Mid and Right)
to extract the date elements and recombine them into a database-friendly
date format.

PS. you are going to unnecessary trouble in your example sql statement. All
that is required is:
WHERE dataAssunzione = '20051018'
No need for the parentheses and no need for the CONVERT function.

Also, given the lack of a parameter in te above example, it looks like you
are planning to use dynamic sql to create and run this query. if so, please

The surest way to defeat sql injection is to use parameters, either by using
a Command object to pass parameter values to a string containing parameter
markers:

or by using my preferred method of using stored procedures:
