agreed, space and logic probably dictates that it's inefficient to have two
functions to do the same thing when you can just place a mapping over one to
meet the users needs?

Or try using CreateODBCDateTime and you see how the "date only"
information is stored with a time of 0:00:00 and the "now()" has the
current time in it.
I am guessing that this then justifies your use of DateFormat to convert
the Now() into a string first (which will ensure you only get the "date"
portion and avoid a spurious "time").
You should run this and see that the "time" is always stored even if it is
not supplied:
<cfset time1 = createodbcdate('12 March 2004')>
<cfset time2 = createodbcdate('12 March 2004 10:30:00')>
#time1#<br>
#time2#<br>
#datediff("s",time1, time2)#<br>
This WILL generate a difference of 37800 even though you are using the
CreateODBCDate function (vs. CreateODBCTime). This simply implies that
the ODBC date object created ALWAYS has a time component to it.
It looks like both functions do exactly the same thing.
