=<code>Invalid date input</code>=

<code><b>Invalid date input</b></code> errors occur when <code>INSERT</code> SQL statements do not use the correct Progress date format. Either of the following two syntaxes should succeed; the first is recommended for optimal compatibility.

==ODBC Escape Syntax ==
{{{
{d 'yyyy-mm-dd'} 
}}}
For example, 
{{{
{d '2001-05-15'}
}}}

==Progress Date Syntax ==
{{{
'dd.mm.yyyy'
}}}
For example, 
{{{
15.05.2001
}}}
