The date literal thing (which was also present in StarOffice) has been a pain in my butt for a very long time, say, more than 10 years lol !!! How would you envisage the prepared statement working with the filter functionality currently available in forms, for example, where this transition from date literal is transparent for the user (because the query is generated on the fly) ?
