Hi, there, We are testing the Aug SP1 (v5.14.2) release, it seems the exec did not translate the date string, please run attached sql against Aug SP1, it give out the following error, the same script works file on mserver v5.10.4 (May SP1). Sounds like a bug to me. 15:19:53 [CREATE - 0 row(s), 0.000 secs] Command processed.
