Hi,


With MSFlexGrid1
Dim i As Integer
For i=1 To .Rows-1
.TextMatrix(i,3)= Format( .TextMatrix(i,3), "dd-mmm-yy")
Next i
End With

Hope this helps,

Shurik12.

As far as I know you have to explicitely do it for the grid.
(You could try it in your sql: ....Format(Field1,"dd-mmm-yy")... and don't do it in for the grid, the result would be the different).

SELECT Format(DateField,"dd-mmm-yy") AS GridDate
FROM GridTable
ORDER BY DateField Desc

try merging that with your SQL statement, it should work.
