I do not understand what your issue actually is, but, 1) 'YYYY-MM-DD' is the preferred default date format, 2) Excel date cells can be formatted using the ExcelFmt function in the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Utility library, and 3) The Oracle default date/timestamp formats can be set like so (notice I set it to my preferred format, and I do this for every connection in my connect wrapper library): $dbh->do("alter session set nls_date_format='YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:
+SS'");
$dbh->do("alter session set nls_timestamp_format='YYYY-MM-DD HH2
+4:MI:SS.FF'");
$dbh->do("alter session set nls_timestamp_tz_format='YYYY-MM-DD
+HH24:MI:SS.FF'");
Update: Also note that even though the Oracle format includes a time component, it will still accept a string without the time in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD'.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
