> Hi,

> I've some troubles with the to_date function. Here is a small sample code

> Enter SQL string, or . to exit
> create table titi(d date)
> main create table titi(d date)
> Enter SQL string, or . to exit
> insert into titi values('1999-12-31 59:59:999')
> main insert into titi values('1999-12-31 59:59:999')
> Enter SQL string, or . to exit
> insert into titi values(to_date('01-01-2000','dd-mm-yyyy'))
> main insert into titi values(to_date('01-01-2000','dd-mm-yyyy'))
> main insert into titi values(to_date('01-01-2000','dd-mm-yyyy'))
> Don't understand SQL after: "insert"
> Expected: "}" found: "("
> java.sql.SQLException: insert into titi
> values(to_date('01-01-2000','dd-mm-yyyy'
> ))
> Don't understand SQL after: "insert"
> Expected: "}" found: "("
>         at db.SQLProg.execute(SQLProg.java:214)
>         at jdbc.idbStatement.execute(idbStatement.java, Compiled Code)
>         at commsql.main(commsql.java, Compiled Code)

> I create a simple table called titi with a date column. When I
> insert a date
> using JDBC format (seen in this mailing list), it works. When I
> use to_date
> function, it doesn't...
>
> The same SQL script works well on an Oracle database.

> I'm using InstantDB v3.13
