Re: Can I create a date field in a make table query?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



"my current method" is my going into Table Design and MANUALLY changing the field type from Text to
Date, after I build the table. Like I said. There *IS* no code to *change* it, just *build* it:

Serv Start: IIf([UTSSYY]>50,[UTSSMM] & "/" & [UTSSDD] & "/" & (1900+([UTSSYY])),[UTSSMM] & "/" &
[UTSSDD] & "/" & (2000+([UTSSYY])))

So the question is, can I specify that this field be of type "Date" in my query, and if so, how?
