[Quoted] Using the scott.emp table:

[Quoted] I specify the following default_where in set_block_property. set_block_property('EMP',default_where,
'hiredate = (' || '''' || :block3.sdate || '''' ||','||''''||'DD-MON-YYYY'||''''||')'); NOTE: :block3.sdate is used to prompt the user to enter a date. I have formated the text item as DD-MON-YYYY in the navigator

Now, lets's say user enter 17-DEC-1980 in the date prompt... When I check :system.last_query, I get the following value  hiredate = to_date('17-DEC-80','DD-MON-YYYY')

Notice that the century is not included. This could be a problem for date after year 2000. What I really like to see is : hiredate = to_date('17-DEC-1980','DD-MON-YYYY')

Any help would be really appreciated. Received on Sun Dec 05 1999 - 17:09:41 CET
