I created a field in my query which populates each record with a date that i specify.

example: Hist Date: [Date]

When you run the query, it asks for a paramenter value or date. The output is created in a make table and the data type is binary. Is there a way to change it from Binary to Date in the query itself? If you change the data type in the table, it reverts back to binary once the query is run.

Thanks.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
