From Christophe LUCET,
L.S.A., Paris :
Hello!
I need to set my date format on a database with Oracle 7.3.3.0.0. I tried
with the command :
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD/MM/YYYY';
but when i want to insert a date with this format, an error occurs since the
'DD/MM/YY' format is needed.
I wonder if the alter session effects end with a commit/rollback...
If someone can help me, i would be very appreciative. My e-mail : clucet_at_perinfo.com or lsa.perinfo_at_wanadoo.fr
