Totally blowing smoke here, but...

Do you need to cast the month() and year() as strings before you concatenate 
them using the CONVERT function?

Sorry to put this here, but I am having trouble sending mail to the
cf-talk list.

This is probably a simple one, but anyway ...

I am trying to do this in MySQL:

SELECT blah1, blah2, CONCAT_WS('-',MONTH(OrderDate),YEAR(OrderDate)) AS 
LegendDate
FROM table

I am expecting the results to be something along the lines of 2-2005, but am 
actually getting the 'binary value' of '504550484853', which ColdFusion then 
turns into '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.  I assume it has something to do with having 
the 
date functions inside the CONCAT() function.  I tried DATE_FORMAT() and got 
similar results.  Is there another way to accomplish this?
