>Hi

>I want a simple date only field, which isn't possible in SQL Server (only datetime or smalldatetime), as I'd like to bind the SQL table field to an object on myForm.myDate. I'm using an updatable cursor to allow VFP to update SQL Server with any changes to the data. The SQL Server field needs to stay in date format as I'll need to use the date in select statements.

Don't bind directly to a field, bind to a form's property (Date field). Then do replace manually yourself. This is how we handle this problem.

We're using sqlexec.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
