Access SQL Date Format

How can I retrieve a record based on a Date property? I'm trying:

WHERE Meetings.[MDate] = '16/12/2011'

which is the format I use but I get :

"Data type mismatch in criteria expression"


Problem solved: It should have been:

WHERE Meetings.[MDate] = 16/12/2011

No quotation marks.

You'll want to use the SQL date format: '#2011-12-16#'
