Simple pass thru query to Oracle

  • Hello Oracle Forum:

    I've got my first linked server established from SQL Server 2008 SSMS to Oracle.

    What is the proper syntax for this simple query with a date expression in the where clause?

    What is the proper date delimiter?

    Is there a conversion necessary?

    SELECT TOP (5) SURGERY_DATE

    FROM OPENQUERY(CLARITY, 'SELECT * FROM OR_LOG WHERE SURGERY_DATE = ('8/1/2012')' AS a

    Many thanks ahead of time.
