Birthday date problem

When I try and insert new contact with a DOB the system discards that field and doesn't populate it.  The rest of the fields get populated without any problems.

What could it be?

Hi Luke,

Try setting the birthDateSpecified field to true.

I did, and still the same problem.

Hi Luke,

Are you using the ISO-8601 date format? (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:NN:SS+X  2004-02-13T13:38:24+8)

I use custom formatting and pass it to the system as mm/dd/yyyy

I do the same thing on opportunities table and it works just fine.

Hi Luke,

Sorry for my last question.  In the partner wsdl you would use that formatting.  I just tried it in .Net using

new DateTime(1961, 10, 6); for the assignment and it worked.  Can you try it this way?

Yep... that helped.  Thanks much.
