I'm not sure what you mean... Oracle stores the date type using "/" instead of "-" or ".".. i looked into the code for the parsing that web2py uses and it only parses with "+" "-" or "." so that is why i think my issue is arising. I was wondering if anyone knows an intermediary step i can take to avoid this issue or maybe a style change i can make...
