Date Format Problem; need 'dd/mm/yy' not 'mm/dd/yy'
I have the following problem when supplying a date to a sp date parameter: If I run with parameter formatted as 'dd/mm/yy' then I get 0 records because, I guess, sql expects first part to be 'mm'. I have windows and EM set as 'English' (i.e. 'dd/mm/yy'). The values in the tables also display as 'dd/mm/yy', so: 1) WHY must I supply a date parameter for a sp as 'mm/dd/yy'. 2) How should end users enter the date. 3) Can I store 'dd/mm/yy' and 'mm/dd/yy' format dates in the same table? Please help, I am a little confused. Thank you in advance. Regards - Rehman ::WH...

Set the date format to be 'dd/MM/yyyy' for an SQL Server database
Hi, How can I set the date format to be 'dd/MM/yyyy' for an SQL Server database (to apply in all tables' dates) ?
