This is the offending line:

SELECT @TargetDate = [Fld FldName].value('.','char(10)') FROM @XmlDocWo.nodes('/WORK_HIS/Fld') Fld([Fld FldName])  WHERE [Fld FldName].value('@name','varchar(20)') = 'DATE_TARG'

When I comment the above line, no error.

I wrote this line into the SQL Server SP a long time ago. The value in the XML is the string set on the ASP.NET side which converts a date to string using ToShortDateString():

TargetDate.Date.ToShortDateString()

And the above string conforms to the culture setting. Therefore, when the string is "13/02/2019 11:33:22" I get error.
So, I am assuming that the above line (offending line) converts the string into the DateTime.
Correct?
