Hi,

We have date stored in format "mm/dd/yyyy' with datatype VC(20). I want to perform some date conversions on this col and so trying to cast the data to date. Below query is working fine

     sel
     cast(cast(emp_dt as date format 'mm/dd/yyyy') as date format 'yyyy/mm/dd') "dt"
     from tblname

But when I add a where clause, it is failing with error "Invalid date". Can some one help me identify the issue

     sel
     cast(cast(emp_dt as date format 'mm/dd/yyyy') as date format 'yyyy/mm/dd') "dt"
     from tblname
     where dt=current_date

Thanks
