Hello. I have a generic table used for many different generic
functions. the fields are mainly varchar's but one of these varchars
contains dates (in the format dd/mm/yyyy) for one reason or another.

My question is, can I perform a query on this table, using date
functions on this varchar field? I.e. search for the latest date?

Thanks, Chris
