Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: How do I change nls_date_format?
I believe that nls_lang also affects the date format, you may have to make
sure that you are setting nls_date_format after you set nls_lang. I'm assuming
that you want to change the default date format for the server, otherwise an
"alter session" command will do the trick.
