Although I'd strongly suggest that you stay away from using the vertical bars for concatenation, especially if multilingual support may be on your horizon. select case when clast=0 then date('0001-01-01') else date( substring(char(clast),1,4) concat '-' concat substring(char(clast),5,2) concat '-' concat substring(char(clast),7,2)) end as Date_Formatted, clast from dhtheif/rcm DATE_FORMATTED Last Transaction Date 2003-05-02 20,030,502 0001-01-01 0 Rob Berendt -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
