Hi,

So I see how to change a date like "10312005" to 10/31/2005.... But how do I go the other way?

I want to use a date parameter that I am using in a query for a exported file name. "Report06012006to06302006.xls"

Thanks in advance for any help!

Scott

Try a custom format like
Format(strDate,"mmddyyyy")

I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it.
