Lotus NotesSQL Year function usage

I am trying to use the YEAR function in a query going against a Lotus Notes database via ODBC.  Here is example 1:

SELECT StartTimeDate,
	StartDate,
	YEAR(StartDate)
FROM MainTopic
WHERE StartDate >= '2014-03-01'

Select allOpen in new window

The results are:
[Lotus][ODBC Lotus Notes]Name, constant, or expression expected

[Lotus][ODBC Lotus Notes]Incorrect syntax near ','

[Check aborted]


In example 2 I removed the line with the YEAR function:

SELECT StartTimeDate,
	StartDate
FROM MainTopic
WHERE StartDate >= '2014-03-01'

Select allOpen in new window

The result is:
[Command checked successfully]
so the query will run.


Also, is there any good documentation on using NotesSQL?  I haven't found any, but would be grateful for any hints.
