Well I had double quotes so I changed that. <cfoutput query="rsTitle"> #dateformat(Event_Date, 'dd/mmm/yyyy')# #rsTitle.Title#<br> </cfoutput>
I still get the same type of problem however. Seems I get the same date for all entries and a date that does not exist in the database at that. 01/Jan/1900 Sacred Ground 01/Jan/1900 Sacred Ground 01/Jan/1900 Sacred Ground 01/Jan/1900 Sacred Ground -----Original Message----- From: Tony Weeg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 26, 2002 1:39 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: New User try this #DateFormat(yourDateField,'mm/dd/yyyy')# .tony Tony Weeg Senior Web Developer UnCertified Advanced ColdFusion Developer Information System Design Navtrak, Inc.

Now I'm trying to add a date display field but it is returning the same date each time 01/01/1900 and I know that's not right :) -----Original Message----- From: Timothy Heald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 26, 2002 1:25 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: New User You will need to put back in the leading % in case the word they are searching for is in the middle of a title. Example Search string = "Time" Will return = "Time to go" Will not return = "It's Time to go." Also someone else mentioned using upper(), on the column and the search string your looking for to get by the case sensitivity of the db, I would recommend you doing it as well.

Thanks to you guys :) -----Original Message----- From: Clint Tredway [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 26, 2002 12:07 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: New User Take out the leading % and your query will work. With both % in there this returns everything because to SQL, your string is like everything in the database.
