CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP

I have just upgraded to Coldfusion 8 on Windows Server 2008 (using MS SQL Server 2005) but CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP is causing problems for me.

when I try to add or update an auction in the database I get the following error:

Error Executing Database Query.
[Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid precision value

I have it narrowed down to this piece of code.

Auction_Date=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#DateFormat(Auction_Date, "mm/dd/yyyy")#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP">,

I was using coldfusion mx7 with MS SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2003 server
with the exact same code and setup and everything was OK.

    Dateformat returns a string. If auction_date is a valid date object, use it without the formatting.

    If it makes you feel any better, Cold Fusion has a history of getting less tolerent of "incorrect" code as the version numbers get higher.

    1. What is the value of Auction_Date?
    2. Can you post the entire query?

    the value of Auction_Date is 07/17/2008

    I removed dateformat as shown below but still the same error.
    Auction_Date=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Auction_Date#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP">,

    I then took out cfqueryparam for the date/time fields and used the query below which of course worked. the value inserted into the database was 17/07/2008 00:00:00 (Auction_Date is a datetime field in SQl Server)

    <CFSET Auction_Date1=Form.Month & "/" & Form.DayNo & "/" & Form.Year>

    <CFSET Auction_Date=DateFormat(Auction_Date1,"mm/dd/yyyy")>

    <!--- Update the Auction --->
    <CFQUERY DATASOURCE="#Application.Datasource#" NAME="UpdateItem">
    UPDATE Auctions
    SET
    ModeID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.ModeID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
    ResellerID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Session.ResellerID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" MAXLENGTH="50">,
    BuyerID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.BuyerID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" MAXLENGTH="50">,
    Event_Title=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.Event_Title#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" MAXLENGTH="50">,
    IndustryID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.IndustryID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
    TypeID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.TypeID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
    Description=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.Description#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_LONGVARCHAR">,
    Auction_Date='#DateFormat(Auction_Date, "mm/dd/yyyy")#',
    DurationID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.DurationID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
    Open_Price=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form_Open_Price#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_NUMERIC">,
    Bid_Decrement=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form_Bid_Decrement#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_NUMERIC">,
    CurrencyID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.CurrencyID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
    Suppliers=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.Selected_Suppliers#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_LONGVARCHAR">
    WHERE Auctions.AuctionID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.AuctionID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" MAXLENGTH="50">;
    </CFQUERY>

    the query that doesnt work is:

    <CFSET Auction_Date1=Form.Month & "/" & Form.DayNo & "/" & Form.Year>

    <CFSET Auction_Date=DateFormat(Auction_Date1,"mm/dd/yyyy")>

    <CFQUERY DATASOURCE="#Application.Datasource#" NAME="UpdateItem">
    UPDATE Auctions
    SET
    ModeID=<CFQUERYPARAM VALUE="#Form.ModeID#" CFSQLTYPE="CF_SQL_INTEGER">,
