Is anyone familiar with any value or format that ASP.NET might accept as a valid date, but MS SQL would not?

I'm getting some SQL errors regarding incorrect date input for values that passed through Enterprise Forms identified as dates ... trying to chase this down.

Thanks -

I know that SQL server can accept the following...

MM/DD/YYYY
MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss

And other variations of that.  Typically with .NET date values you use either the ToString() or the ToShortDateString() methods to properly format.

Does the server have a non-english locale listed as the default?

I guess I was hunting with the wrong dog. The input string wasn't being date-validated either at client or ASP.NET side, so it wasn't a matter of a date format that ASP.NET recognized but SQL Server didn't at all; asp.net was just trying to hand off a string to sql for insertion into a date field. Worked, if it was something SQL could convert implicitly.

Working on the validation on client input to deal with the problem.

Thanks -

please notice, that the accepted date formats depend on the current locale of the SQL server, in international environments you should use SQL standard format "yyyy-mm-dd Thh:MM:ss".
