Question CONVERT Date? How to display results?

Hi there,
I am trying to pull out the birthday dates from a table (MS SQL SERVER) so that the table that is displayed on the website only displays a list of birthdays.
My table contains the DOB column in datetime format.
I have used the following query in SQL Server Enterprise Manager:

SELECT CONVERT(varchar(10),DOB,103) FROM table1

and it works fine. It returns the date the way I want it - in SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

However, when I try to display it on the website, I am getting ZERO results. Nothing is displayed.
This is my code on the PHP site:

$query = "SELECT CONVERT(varchar(10),DOB,103) FROM table1";

$result=@mssql_query ($query);

while ($Row=@mssql_fetch_array($result))
{

echo("<tr><td><b>$Row[DOB]</b></td></tr>\n");

}

How would I get the results from the query displayed in my table?

Or do I retrieve all DOBs first and then convert them once they are retrieved?
No clue....

Thanks for your help,
N
