Answer / johncenzer
In an explicit conversion you tell the database how to do
the converion
ex: Select *
from some_table t...
WHERE t.invoice_date='&&pDate'TO_DATE('&&pDate')
or with format
TO_DATE('&&pDate','DD-MON-YYYY')
An implicit conversion is done by the database itself
ex. Select *
from some_table t...
WHERE t.invoice_date='&&pDate'
Oracle will try to convert the pDate into a date.
