I have a varchar field where dates are stored in the database where I need data from with values like 31 APR 2001 I run the following query

select date(trim(contact_date)) from clients where date(trim(contact_date)) < '2002-03-12';

Whenever it hits 31 APR 2001 I get the error ERROR: date/time field value out of range: “31 APR 2001

Are there any workaround so that I won’t get this error. Since all other dates get return perfectly.

The version of postgres I use is
PostgreSQL 8.1.22
