Should be <cfset NewDate = #CreateODBCDate(Now())#>
Pound signs always go on the outside, any text not escaped (inside single
or double quotes) insides the pound signs are interpreted as
variables. And creating a date will automatically format the date
correctly, so no need for the dateformat command. And the date format for
ODBC dates aren't mm/dd/yy anyway, they are {d 'yyyy-mm-dd'} Hope this
helps.
