    Problem with inserting "DATE" in reports

    The "Date and Time" option on the Insert Menu is broken. It generates a "#Name?" error.



    Can someone please help me resolve this problem.

    Thanks - Larry

    I have no idea what you're talking about but if you're trying to insert a date field using a SQL statement you have to put # signs around it for instance

    INSERT INTO tblTest (StartDate, EndDate) VALUES (#1/1/2011#, #1/15/2011#)

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
