On March 29 a thread about this topic was created. The answer has something to do with the timestamp format. The thread is huge, so it's best that you read it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Anonymous · 2006-05-16 21:38 The easiest way seems to bo to cast the column in the SQL-Statement like follows: select cast(changedate as char(27)) changedate from schemaname.tablename
