Thanks you very much for you help ,

I will try to find some solution with the to_date function ,but do you know what is the query in SQL if I want to extract some date with the period date between the 01/04/( current year ) to the 31/03/( current year +1 ) ( we call it in french accounting date ) .

Thanks you for your help !!
