You were right, but that doesn't change my problem... I had mistyped the
column's name when I retried that version in response to your mail. Now,
what I really get as an error message is an "AttributeError", the "Error
value" being "__int__". I had that before and I think it means that the
variable can't be rendered to an integer, as python thinks it should
because it doesn't know that the variable is supposed to contain a date
value.
