I've got a database of walking trips that are arranged for dates in the future. The database is on a machine with UK locale, and the dates are being entered into the database in UK format. My problem is that when I use the following code to select walks with a date greater than or equal to todays date it is using american format for the selection and therefore not picking up the correct walks from the database.

Any clues?

your help is much appreciated.

Thanks
