INSERT & UPDATE changing date format to mm/dd/yyyy!!!

I have INSERT & UPDATE ASP/VB forms which have a date
field which submits to
Access....except when the date is entered as dd/mm/yyyy, it
decides to
convert it to mm/dd/yyyy....absolutely terrific!! :o((
I've added this:
<% Session.LCID = 2057 %>
I've checked the date format, I've done absolutely everything
I can think
of, and can source on the newsgroups, but NOTHING.
What, on earth, is going on??????????????
If anyone can help save me from this madness, please tell me
why this is
happening?
I'm using ASP/VB, with Access on a Windows server and, up
until now, I've
never had this problem.
Here's my INSERT code:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%>
<% Session.LCID = 2057 %>

<%
Dim MM_editAction
MM_editAction = CStr(Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"))
If (Request.QueryString <> "") Then
MM_editAction = MM_editAction & "?" &
Server.HTMLEncode(Request.QueryString)
End If
' boolean to abort record edit

MM_abortEdit = false
%>
<%
' IIf implementation
Function MM_IIf(condition, ifTrue, ifFalse)
If condition = "" Then
MM_IIf = ifFalse
Else
MM_IIf = ifTrue
End If
End Function
%>
<%
If (CStr(Request("MM_insert")) = "form1") Then
If (Not MM_abortEdit) Then
' execute the insert
Dim MM_editCmd
Set MM_editCmd = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Command")
MM_editCmd.ActiveConnection = MM_dsnNAME_STRING
MM_editCmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO tblNews (newstitle,
newsdate,
newsenddate, thumbnail, largeimage, newstextsnip, newstext,

' append the query string to the redirect URL
Dim MM_editRedirectUrl

Well, I've established that it's DW8.0.2 that is causing this
strange
occurence.
Reverted back to previously created versions of my
INSERT/UPDATE form pages
(created in DWMX) and it all works fine!!
I think that makes the whole situation even more frustrating
because I had
HUGE problems with this back in 2003/2004, and resolved it.
Now I've upgraded to DW8.0.2 and it's all gone "ape" again.
<sigh>
Any ideas, looking at the code in my initial post, why this
is happening?
For comparison here is the same INSERT created in DWMX that
WORKS:

How to change data format from MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY

HI,
How can we change data format from MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY in Prompt and Report Level in obiee 11g.
Please help me ont this.
Thanks

Hi,
In Prompt:
Try using EVALUATE function.
Eg: Evaluate('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' as character(30),"D5.Times"."Day Date",'DD-MON-YYYY')
Report level:
Try this in the column formula-
Evaluate('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' as character(30),"D5.Times"."Day Date",'MM/DD/YYYY')
(or)
EVALUATE('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' AS CHARACTER ( 30 ), "Dim- Date".Start Date, 'MON-YY')

Change date format from DD.MM.YYYY to DD.MM in query

Hi,
In one partical query/web application we would like to change the display format of 0CALDAY from 01.01.2010 to 01.01 (without the year) because the data is in the columns and the analysis grid therefore is too wide. Changing this via SU01 is not an option.
Is there any way to do this in the query?
Thanks.

Hi,
If you want to display the calday data as titles of the columns,
1) Create 2 Text Variables (ZEST1 and ZTEST2) in the title and assign them in the following format -->
Quantity &ZTEST1&.&ZTEST2& (having a point in between them)
2) Define ZTEST1 and ZTEST2 of the type 'replacement path' - the calday value can be used from either the infoobject or an input variable as required.
2) In the replacement path section of ZTEST1, give an offset value (if date format is 10.10.2010, 'Offset Start' = 0 and 'Offset length' = 2)
3) In the replacement path section of ZTEST2, give an offset value (if date format is 10.10.2010, 'Offset Start' = 2 and 'Offset length' = 2)
4) This would give the final result in the format 'Quantity 10.10'
If you want to display the calday data in the columns itself, you will have to create one formula variable of the same settings above with Offset start at 0 and Offset length 4 or 5 and use it in a CKF or formula. In this case you will have to assign 2 decimal places to the column, since this is displayed as a number otherwise. the output for the same (for 01.01.2010) will be 1.01 instead of 01.01

Changing Date format from MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY

Hello all,
          We have upgraded our portal system from EP 6.0 to EP 7.0 . Before upgrade the portal date format was in DD/MM/YYYY format but after upgrade it has changed to MM/DD/YYYY.
          We changed the request.mandatoryCountry and Request.mandatoryLanguage parameters as GB and EN respectively .
After this change the standard portal iview start showing date in DD/MM/YYYY format but custom web dynpro applications are still displaying date in MM/DD/YYYY format.
        Please suggest how can we change the date format for custom dynpro applications too.
Regards,
Ganesh

Ganesh,
You might find [this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f4/d95664da179b4db731e21c2e470b72/frameset.htm] link helpful in understanding how the locale is determined for a user who logs into the portal.
Similar discussions are on the following threads
1 - date format
2 - internationalization problem - default language of wd in portal
A snippet from the above thread,
1) Language indicator of the user (Example: Language not set in portal)
2) Language preference of the browser (Example: fr - Resource doesn't exists)
3) Language indicator of the Web Dynpro Application
4) Language preference of the system
5) Language preference of the JVM
Hope it helps.
Good Luck!!!

You didn't mention what DBMS or scripting language you are using.
The best way to get dates from a user is to supply 3 fields for input; day, month, year - then assemble them into the string format that the DBMS is expecting.

How i can change date format in the query

I have made a query and Document date format is DD/MM/YYYY but i want Document date Format as YYYYMMDD. Please help me out as soon as posible.
Thanks is advance.

Hi Harman,
By default query shows same date setting what is maitianed in SU01 (user maintenance). User can set the dates as they want. Ask user to log in BI system and go to system> User Profile> Own Data. They can select the date format and save the changes.
If you want to display same setting for all user, please select the format whenever you create any users and change for existing users.

Change Date Format in Calendar prompt

Hi All,
I am on 11.1.1.5 and the calendar prompt on selection of date/typing of date defaults to MM/dd/yyyy but, the requirement is to make it to default to MM/dd/yy. I have made 3 changes to the localedefinitions.xml file (dateSeparator,dateShortFormat,dateOrder) and they look like below
<property name="dateSeparator">/</property> // separator to use between fields in short date formats
<property name="dateShortFormat">MM/dd/yy</property> // default short date format for locale
<property name="dateOrder">mdy</property> // preferred order of date fields for input
But I still dont see a change in the format of the Calendar prompt. Do I need to change something else too?

I checked under the My Account the locale is set to English and I have the following in the file but still when I select in the prompt the date format is MM/dd/yyyy instead of MM/dd/yy

Thanks in advance

Hi
i think this can't be done through any code like oracle uses to_char, to_date function.
Just follow this
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/12/19/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dates-dates-and-dates/
With this, wherever you have this column, you will be getting this format dates..
if you don't want in reports you can change it by mentioning the data format for that paricular column in report, but for the same column, if you want different format at different places (for prompts), you can't do that..
