Like this...

Insert into SomeTable(DateCol)
values('04/02/2006')


Can u be little specific and tell us what is the exact problem?
Sample data? query ? etc.

Use DateTime datatype and when supplting values use universal format YYYYMMDD


Insert into SomeTable(DateCol)
values('20060204')

or make use of stored procedure with DateTime parameter
