[cfaussie] [OT] Looking for T-SQL/SQL expert to port a spelling algorithm to SQL - MS SQL 2005

Hi, I'm looking for someone who can port some spelling algorithm to MS SQL 2005. I have some spell checkers working in ColdFusion, but the application we are working on is high traffic and I am looking to save milliseconds on requests. Thinking that porting the algorithm to SQL will give me

I have tried that , that is why the date is displaying with the month as OCT, however the date value I am using is 10-1-07 yet it outputs it as 1-Oct-07 cfset payment_from_date=10-01-07 #dateformat(payment_from_date, 'dd-mmm-yy')# outputs the date as 1-Oct-07 rather than 10-Jan-07

what is the locale on the server? If it's US it will think the digits are the month, if it's AU then it will think the first digits are a day. It looks like your locale is set to US. You can set the locale with setLocale see http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/functa80.htm try

and to follow on from Kym's thoughts... it's worth working out exactly where you convert your date *string* from a form/input to your dateTime *object* as far as the archetecture of your site for me, it's part of the server-side form validation routines (ie: as soon as I can**). from then on

Grant, we often get led off into concerns that arent anything to do with us. If you work for Adobe, and your job is to promote ColdFusion over competing products, then you would be watching anything Microsoft does and would want to one-up them whenever you can. Great. That's now the

We are working on an application that will receive high traffic. All queries are Stored Procedures (MS SQL 2005) and I was thinking of putting all the calls to those SPs in a CFC, only to keep all the SQL in one place. But since I am more concerned about speed than anything else, I am thinking
