Hello all,
I have problem. When users enter date in "MM-DD-YYYY' format the form should be able to pull the records if they enter the date format as 'MM-DD-YYYY' as ORacle stores dates in "Dd-MON-YYYY' format the date is not recognized in the flowwing query.
-------------
select dept_payin_no,payin_line_no, payin_date, cr_dr_flag, payin_amount, post_flag,
gl_Fund_code, gl_org_code, gl_acct_code, gl_prog_code,payin_comment, post_date,
Posted_by
from post_treasury
where post_flag='N'
and Payin_Date=to_date(to_char(&PDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY'),'MM-DD-YYYY')
Where &Pdate is the runtime date that the users pass which is format "MM-DD-YYYY' format.
Can anyone help with this?
thanx
