Re: issue with dates in sql server

It may be relevant to say exactly how you're doing this.

Randomly(or so it seems) dates are a day off. For example date on the I is 1994/12/05 and 1994/12/04 on the Sql Server.
I've run it through debug and the date is correct prior to the write operation.
It doesn't happen on every record or on every date field.

Anyone have any thoughts on why this might be happening?

Without hearing more, my completely wild shot in the dark is that at
some point, you are converting your data to a field/variable which is
some kind of datetime, rather than just a date. Then things like time
zone can come into play.
