<snip>
We are uploading data from our SQL server data base.
Our files all store the date 8/0 - the standard is no date data type.

The guys on the dotnet side tried to convert the SQLServer date data
type
column to 8/0 with no luck, so far.
I thought I'd change mine [entirely against our standards] and use the
date
data type.

This is what I see in our file using WRKDBF before a record is
populated:
0001-01-01-00.00.00.000000
This is what the server guys are trying to send:
2008-05-12
10:34:48.400 and no - between the date and time.
Any suggestions?

You are not mentioning how you are receiving the data. Stored Procedure
call?

Just have your .net guys pass you a date data type but like I said
difficult to know unless we know how you are receiving the data.
