You are comparing CHAR to DATE, you would need one of the following
conditions
1- where DATECREATED = to_date('01-FEB-03 07:53:28','DD-MON-YY HH24:MI:SS')
2- where to_char(DATECREATED,'DD-MON-YYY HH24:MI:SS') = '01-FEB-03 07:53:28'
to be able to complete the WHERE clause

Hi...
I am getting the following error with a query like this
select * from cust where
to_char(DATECREATED,'DD-MON-YYY HH24:MI:SS') = to_date('01-FEB-03
07:53:28','DD-MON-YY HH24:MI:SS')
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
What is the problem?
Thanks
