Use the correct format mask in your update. DD HH24:MI:SS looks like one, but there are only 60 minutes in an hour the last time I checked, and you have 81, or even 91. You'll have to rework that.
Table definitions and actual update statement would help, as well as version(s) Received on Mon Aug 21 2006 - 04:34:24 CDT
