hi everyone....

I am trying to do a query that will just show me events for a chosen day.

i have an output like this...

<cfoutput query="days"> 
<CFSET yourDate = CreateDate(years, months, days)>
 <a href="index.cfm?showDate=#URLEncodedFormat(yourDate)#">
#DateFormat(yourDate, "dd/mmm [dddd]")#
</a>
 </cfoutput>

which gives me a urlencoded date format

I then want to pass this to a query to show all events for that day.

<cfquery name="events" datasource="#DSN#" dbtype="ODBC">
SELECT *
FROM events
WHERE eventdatestart = #createODBCdate(showdate)#
ORDER BY eventdateStart
</cfquery>

I am not getting an error, but no results are being returned.
I have tried also tried '#createODBCdate(showdate)#' (with single quotes)

this should be so simple but i cant get results!?

any help is appreciated.

thanks
chad
