Hi all,

I have a question about optional parameter. If I use optional parameter, it
ask me to set default value for it. How can I set default value for Date
parameter? Thanks!

You can use a date literal:

....., Optional ByVal d As Date = #3/12/2003#
Alternatively you can add an overloaded procedure:

sub mysub(byval arg1 as integer)
mysub(arg1, #3/12/2003#)
end sub

sub mysub(byval arg1 as integer, byval d as date)
'code
end sub

\\\
Public Sub Foo(Optional ByVal Goo As Date = #10/10/2010#)
If Goo = #...# Then
...
Else
...
End If
End Sub
///

Notice that it's better to create overloaded versions of the
procedure:

\\\
Public Sub Foo()
Foo(Date.MinVal ue)
End Sub

Public Sub Foo(ByVal Goo As Date)
...
End Sub
///

I have a function which performs a query and returns a table. The one parameter that can get passed in is a date which defaults to NULL. There is an IF statement in the function that will set the paramter to an actual date if null. If I call the function while passing in a date the function comes back a second or 2 later. But if I pass in DEFAULT to the function, the same query takes 8 minutes. See code below and sample call below. ...

We commonly use triggers to log changes to our main tables to historical log tables. In the trigger, we create a concatenated string of the old values by casting them as follows: CAST(O.MYDATE AS CHAR(30)) When directly updating date fields in the main table, the logged value gets saved in the format YYYY-MM-DD as expected.

Access 2003, using a bound form. I'm seeing rather annoying behaviour when editing data in a control with a default value. It only happens when the form is on a new record. A specific example: on my form, the first control is bound to a date/ time field and has a default value of now(). When users need to change this control's data, they'll most commonly need to alter the time part leaving the date as is. But, on a new record, when...

Hi all It's me again. I now want to specify the current date in the format '26/06/2007' ie date/month/year as the default value in my mysql database. Which implies that by default the value of my date field in the database should be the current date. How can I do this in the Mysql database itself, so that each time my application is called the current date appears by default. Thanks in advance for your replies

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
