You can use Javascript to reformat the returned strings. Instead ofQuote:>I need to retrieve date values from an access database and have them

passing them to the place on the page where you want them, pass them to a
Javascript function that reformats the strings. Then place a reference to
the Javascript function where you want the reformatted strings to appear.
Hope this helps.
