In case you can do with less precision, you can store/index the date as a string of 8 digits yyyymmdd. There are some date formatting functions in java.text iirc. The format also nicely allows range queries. Regards, Ype -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
