Hi,

My app uses a Paradox table. One of the fields in the table is of type
"Date".
In the app I manipulate the database using SQL and a TQuery component.
My problem is that the system's short date format has to be "MM/dd/yyyy"
before any queries that use the date field will work. When the system's
short date
format is "dd/MM/yyyy", my queries simply don't work - I keep getting an
error message: "Type mismatch in expression" - even when I double check that
the format of the date description in the sql statement is the same as that
of the system.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Fret
