I've seen any number of questions about this topic, but since I can't figure it out on my own...

I've got a datetime column in my database. In my model, I internally call it a String and leave it datetime externally. The reason I do this is because I use a fetch spec to call up today's event: Date = "current_date". I don't know that the datetime equivalent of that is, so by calling the column a string, I can get around it and the fetch spec works.

Anyway, I want dates to appear as "Monday, Jan 1, 2004" rather than "2004-01-01." I know I can use a formatter to do this, but that only seems to work with a column that is a datetime. Now, I've seen examples with a Timestamp to a String, but it seems that what I'm looking for is to display a String as a Timestamp.

Or, is there just an easier way to call up the current date in a fetch spec rather than resorting to all of this?

Thanks for any and all suggs,

Ari
