use of list + date

[yellowke]

Hi I converted a character element of a table to date.

Now I want a list of it and I use:

list name for hiredate = "01.03.2003"

but I get the following error:
operator/operand type mismatch


What is the correct way to use list in this case?

Thanx

list name for hiredate = "01.03.2003"

Try
list name for hiredate = CTOD("01.03.2003&quot
