Access handles dates according to the date time format of your system unlike SQL SERVER which uses it like yyyy-mm-dd

To do what you need use the following query

SQL

SELECT Str(Datepart("d",datecolumn))+'/'+Str(Datepart("m",datecolumn)) AS Expr1
FROM tablename
WHERE (((tablename.[id])=4));

Modify where condition according to your needs

Best of luck.........

Dear sandeep,

I had made this query in SQL Server 2005, please run this query in Access DB and see the result.. I think following query will work. replace

SQL

getdate()

with your date field.

SQL

select rtrim(convert(char,month(getdate())))+ '/' + rtrim(convert(char,day(getdate())))

Thanks

use this query it will work i have checked it on access.

SQL

SELECT str(datepart("d",Start_date)) +'/'+ str(datepart("m",Start_date))
FROM tblwork

and you can use this query also

SQL

SELECT mid( format(Start_date,'dd/MM/yyyy'),1,5)
FROM tblwork
WHERE len(Start_date)>0;
