See CAST AND CONVERT http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187928(v=sql.105).aspx

There are loads of date formats available, though you may have to truncate the time portion.

You need something like

SELECT CONVERT(e.expiration_date, varchar(11), 130) AS Expiration_Date;

I'm lost. Are you saying that the column e.expiration_date is defined as a date data type?

Now for the standard comment, you really should do your formatting of dates in the UI (User interface, application, report, etc), not in the SQL query.

Cool
