Re: Access to SharePoint Date/Time Conversion

I tried a blank database from scratch following your example and still 
receive the same error.  Perhaps it is a configuration problem with our 
server or we are running different versions.  We have SharePoint Server
2007 
Standard.  Which version are you running?

I do appreciate all the help and hopefully this will help narrow down the 
problem.
