Tony writes "I am about to transfer data from excel into SQL Server 2000. In excel there are columns holding date data in them - eg Data_Of_Booking etc.

I need to convert these data into the date datatype. At the moment SQL converts the data into its default datetime format 01/12/2001.00.00.00. How do I go about using the CONVERT() syntax whlist transfering the data using DTS?

What is the best possible way of doing this?

Please help.

Thanks

Ton"
