That value shouldn't work at all ... ?

<cfoutput> 
 
#Now()# ||

#CreateODBCDate(2008-04-10)# = #CreateODBCDate(1994)#

| 
 
#CreateODBCDate('2008-04-10')# 
 
| 
 
#CreateODBCDate(Now())# 
 
| 
 
#DateFormat(Now(), "YYYY-MM-DD")# 
 
| 
 
#DateFormat('2008-04-10', "YYYY-MM-DD")# 
</cfoutput>

Produces:
{ts '2008-04-10 10:26:21'} || {d '1905-06-16'} = {d '1905-06-16'} | {d 
'2008-04-10'} | {d '2008-04-10'} | 2008-04-10 | 2008-04-10

This is on CFMX7.
