Re: Date to String ?

This looks like it probably belongs in a java newsgroup, not Oracle. Also, please include the error next time.

If you want to perform this conversion in java instead of in Oracle, you might start by looking at the javadoc API for SimpleDateFormat.format(). It performs a Date to String conversion.
