listing data after a certain date

Hi,
[Quoted] [Quoted]   I need to write a query which lists data after a certain date. The [Quoted] [Quoted] following query is what I have tried writing but have been unsuccessful with it.

  Select name, ssn
  from junk
  where date > to_number(1-MAR-98)

[Quoted] [Quoted] The columns in the table are name varchar2(25)

                             ssn     number(9)
                             date    date

I have tried the select statement without converting to a number format and the query doesn't work then either. Can someone out there help me with this query.

Thanks
Dwarak
