I'm working with Oracle Forms 6.0.8.14.1.

I've got a VARCHAR2(4) column in a table, in which I store a time indication, such as 0800, 2000, 1830 and so on.

I want to load it in a DATE form field, which has the format mask = 'HH24:MI'.

I valorize it in the post-query trigger with the code:

:MAIN.DATE_FIELD := TO_DATE(DATABASE_COLUMN, 'HH24MI');

But all I get is '00:00', also when a TO_CHAR message of the date returns me correct HH24 MI information.

Why?
