Hi Try this...

SQL

SET DATEFORMAT dmy
SELECT '22/02/2013'

SET DATEFORMAT mdy
SELECT '03/22/2013'

SET DATEFORMAT ymd
SELECT '2013/03/22'

-- Detault format is "mdy"

Check the following link...

SET DATEFORMAT (Transact-SQL)[^]

Try this:

SQL

CONVERT(DATETIME, '2013/02/20',103)

or

SQL

DECLARE @myDate VARCHAR(10)

SET @myDate = '2013/03/20'
CONVERT(DATETIME, @myDate,103)

Do you see the difference?
