Further to a discussion around May time I have a question upon using the datatype "TIME"

We have some tables that have the time stored in the above datatype that I need to concatenate with a DATE field to make comparisons between records or to select maximum/minimum combinations etc.

However methods that I have tried so far (basic concatenation with/without formatting from manual)have failure written all over them, the message being 'Invalid on an ANSI datetime...'

I have done this before where the time was held in char or integer format and works fine but I cannot even reformat the datatype to either of these datatypes prior to concatenation (as same error message applies).

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks in advance

Mike.
