Hi,   I've been driving crazy with this date issue. We've upgraded our Access dbs to SQL Server recently. We have form input using Aussie date format: dd/mm/yyyy and is same in the database (I've set the default language to 0 - international in SQL Server). However when I use LSDateFormat to display the date it always change to American format: mm/dd/yyyy (e.g. 7/6/2004 becomes 6/7/2004). I've tried some options:   <cfset SQLDate = DateFormat(Form.CloseDate, "yyyy/mm/dd")>   OR   <cfscript>  theDate = Attributes.formfield;  firstSeparator = find("/",theDate,0);  theDay = left(theDate,firstSeparator-1);  theYear = right(theDate,4);  remaining = Right(thedate,len(thedate)-firstseparator);  theMonth = left(remaining,find("/",remaining)-1);  Caller.SQLDate = createdate(theYear,theMonth,theDay); </cfscript> <cfset newSQLDate = DateFormat(variable.SQLDate, "dd/mm/yyyy")>   However, none of them work! Please help!   Thanks in advanced.
