Hi again, I am having troubles inserting a datetime value in a table to a string. what iw ant to do is have it be sent in an email. its an attendance email. here is the code i have right now:

select @summaryreport = isnull (@summaryreport + '; ',''+ char(13))+ '<BR>' +'Instructor '+instructor + ' Student ' + Fname + ' ' + Lname + ' - ' + classname +' ' + classdate from #tabledata
