Be that as it may, it's also a no-brainer to RTFM and use the function the way it was intended. This is a quote from livedocs: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/functa28.htm#wp1108693 <quote> LSDateFormat(date [, mask ]) date: A DATE/TIME OBJECT [my emphasis], in the range 100 AD-9999 AD. </quote> Not a string. Not a string that looks like a date to both you, me, and everyone else reading this. A date object. Date functions in CF are very understanding, and try to do their best with the mishmash of inappropriate arguments people offer them, and generally do a good job. However sometimes they fall over. You know: garbage in, garbage out. I have to say I'd prefer it if they just rejected strings outright... people would only make this mistake once, that way. I never use strings when CF asks for a date, and I never have any of the many and varying problems people that tend to use strings instead do.
