does the date time data in Oracle store in long number? From the application 
interface, we enter data in format like '01/02/2001 10:30:00 PM' , when I 
run the query, I get the result in long number as '915134070' . When I 
compare it to SYSDATE ('SELECT * FROM Mytable WHERE entry_date < 
SYSDATE-60'), I get the error inconsistent data type. How can I compare the 
field 'entry_date' to the last 60 days? Thanks
