correct. The NLS format has to be set to the format that you are using in =
the select or you have to use the to_date function.

If I am not wrong then we can set NLS_DATE_FORMAT=3D'DD-MON-YYY' in Server Registry, Init.ora and Client Registry.
After that Oracle will take '29-FEB-1996' as valid date.
DBAs, correct me if I am wrong.
Sandeep.

Hi Rustem,
Yaa you will get error since data is a date type column and '29-FEB-1996' is a
string. so in where clause you need to convert this string into =
date
using
to_date function and it should work
data =3D to_date ('29-FEB-1996','DD-MON-YYYY')
again here you should specify right date format.
