Date format can vary between different providers/languages. It's better to use
paramteres to pass a date to a query. For example:

   select column from table where time between :from and :to

Then you can use the Parameters property of TADOQuery/TADODataSet to fill
properly the two values you have to pass. Components, they translates for you,
the date in the format that likes to your target rdbms engine.

Good luck.

Ciao!

P.S. is better if you don't use 'time' like column's name.
