why pass anything from CF? why not just make the default value of the field in the database getDate()? if you're updating...just pass getDate() (just like that. no quotes, no # signs (it's a SQL Server function, not a CF function)). no need to make CF do any thinking :) -- Charlie Griefer ================================================ "...All the world shall be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you.
