Hi Chester: The real date in the table is stored Microsoft date format: i.e. 351235.12343. Its' display format can be very different from the real date and sometimes Access assists by assigning it's own date format recommendation when certain function are being used. I have found it is sometimes better to create a field, format the field and then export the contents from/through a query rather than directly from a table.

Date: Format((CDate(Forms![frm Select Date]!selected_date)),"Short Date") When I open up the table I see a short date When I export the table to a csv type file I get both the date and the time. How do I get only the date into the csv file?
