ibrahim atassi writes "hello,
my excel spreadsheet contains dates in the first column and names in the second.
now from my website i'm trying to enter a date to get the corresponding name. (of course i've created a DSN file and connected the page to it etc). my problem is that when i enter a date (for example 5/16/01)in the text field of the form and submit it, this date can't be found in the excel table. Would i in contrary ask for the date by name, then i get the date back.

do i have to convert the entered text with sql into date-format?"
