Hi
I�m new to MS-SQL and I�m having a problem with an ASP3 JS website that I�m upgrading from Access. I�m trying to format the date from mm/dd/yyyy (as held in the db by GETDATE) to display as dd/mm/yyyy on a web page.
Previously with the Access db I used -
"SELECT format(addate, 'dd/mm/yyyy') as addate1 FROM...�
What do you use with MS-SQL???
Any help greatly appreciated as this is driving me nuts!!!
What is the default date format used by transact sql? Would YYYY-MM-DD HOUR:MIN:SECS format work on Mssql?
I am working on a project that needs to work with atleast two databases (Mysql/Mssql). I use the above date format and while it works perfectly on all Mysql databases, it gives me trouble in some Mssql setups.
Most of the trouble arises when I am doing INSERT or SELECT queries.
How do I handle this? Is there some way that I can tell Mssql that I am using the yyyy-mm-dd format or should I find out what format that particular mssql is using and adopt it?
E.g, i have a store procedure. The start date is long date (4/15/2007 3:00pm). i want to select the start date with a particular date (short date format 4/15/2006). Thanks in advance.
I am trying get my VB6 application to insert a record into a table (SQL Express) which has a datetime column but it would not process if the data format is differ to *American Date format*.
The date() function in VB returns 15/11/2006 which is in Australian Date format (DD/MM/YYYY) according to my setting in "Reginal and Lanuage Option-> Locale 0> English (Australia)" setting.
I get the following error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Server KITSQLEXPRESS, Line 1 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value. The statement has been terminated.
My computer's locale is set to English (Australia) and I expect the datetime format would follow what is set in system locale
I've read an article somewhere on the net about how SQL 2005 eliminate the confusion of date conversion when read/write datetime records into a table...but it seems to me that it is still as in-flexible as MS Access
Is there a setting in the database that takes care of it?

I had a problem today where BCP would not read the format file I created giving the following error:
I/O error while reading BCP format file.
I searched the archives here at swynk.com and found a thread titled exactly the same as the one I am now creating. There were numerous responses to this thread but none of them seemed to solve the problem for me (short of the one that suggested using BCP to create the format file, which I didn't want to do).
I used BCP to create a format file for me (which looked identical to the format file that I created) and it worked fine. With my suspicions aroused, I used a binary file viewer to look at the contents of each file and highlight the differences. Apart from the usual variations in whitespace I noticed that the my file did not have any carriage returnline feed at the end of the last row definition.
My format file ended at the end of the last row definition line. It did not have any carriage returns and line feeds. I matched the one generated by BCP and added the following "
" to the end of the file, tested my format file and it worked perfectly.
The moral of the story is, make sure when you create a format file, you have an empty line at the end of the file (ie: after your last "Server Column Name", make sure you have "
Hi,I have a problem with updating a datetime column,When I try to change the Column from VB I get "Incorrect syntax near'942'" returned from [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]'942' is the unique key column valueHowever if I update any other column the syntax is fineThe same blanket update query makes the changes no matter what isupdatedThe problem only happens when I set a unique key on the date field inquestionKey is a composite of an ID, and 2 date fieldsIf I allow duplicates in the index it all works perfectlyI am trying to trap 'Duplicate value in index' (which is working onother non-date columns in other tables)This is driving me nutsAny help would be appreciated
A server with SQL 2005 sp2, Reporting Services and Sharepoint services (ver 3.0) (in integrated mode) gives an odd error. When viewing a Reporting Services report with a Date Time Picker, the date chosen is wrong. The preferred setting is Danish with the date format dd-mm-yyyy. The date picker shows the months in Danish but when selecting a date, and clicking on the Apply-button, the date reformats to US (mm-dd-yyyy).
Example: When choosing 5th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows in the picker, 9th of May 2007. When choosing 26th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows, again in US format, the RIGHT date but adds a timestamp ��12:00 AM�? in the end, making further enquiries to fail.
The report itself receives the right date and shows correctly. The only case it fails is, when the time stamp appears.
The server is a 32-bit one with 4 GB RAM. A testserver with identical collation on the Reportserver database cannot recreate the error. The site containing the reports has been set to Danish in the regional settings. To Reinstall is not an option.
The test report has no database connection whatsoever.
When setting the site to US, the timestamp won��t appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
I am having report parameter end date I am showing the default value "5/21/2007 11:59:59 PM" in the end date paramter. And also I want to show date time format "(MM/DD/YYYY HH:MMS)" in the right hand side of the parameter. How to do this?
I am using reporting services, when I go to view my report in Report Manager (web browser is IE7), I choose a date from a date picker control, and the date that populates the date field is in US format mm/dd/yyyy, however in my regional settings, although I have English(United States) I have altered my short date format to be dd/mm/yyyy.
Currently my report will display an error saying the date is an invalid format if I pick a date that violates the mm/dd/yyyy format. I want it to display the date format that I have defined in my regional settings, without modifying the 'Language Preference' settings for IE.
The report properties has =User!Language for the 'Language' property.

I need to do the following and am hoping someone can help me out. I have C#(asp.net app) that will call a stored procedure. The C# will pass in a date to thestored procedure. The date is in the format YY/MM/DD. Once inside of the stored procedure, the datepassed into the stored proc needs to be compared to todays date. Todays date must be determined inthe SQL. So basically here is my pseudo code for what I am trying to accomplish. Basically I just am afterthe comparison of the two values: If @BeginDate < TodaysDate The difficult part is how to obtain the value for "TodaysDate" Taking into consideration that "TodaysDate" should probably be in the format of YY/MM/DD considering that is how the date it is to be compared with is being passed in. Can someone please code this out for me in Microsoft SQL. I would be forever grateful.

I have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.
I've played with various combinations of CAST & CONVERT but haven't been able to get it to work.
Below is my latest effort which returns the error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'
What code would work to return a MM/DD/YYYY value for New_Accounting_Date?
Select GLBATCH.AccountingDate, convert(GLBATCH.AccountingDate as date),101) AS New_Accounting_Date from GLBATCH
hi. i am working with PHP and MSSQL (i know its not a smart move, but I don't have a choice). I got almost everything working correctly except the date format.
I can select the date and display it the way I want by doing this select convert(VARCHAR(10), date, 105) as new_date FROM table.
But when I have a field to update the date I am having trouble.
How do I update the MSSQL database with a new date if the date displayed is DD-MM-YY

When you put data int a MS SQL database via php, dependign on the SQL Server version you are using, the date format needs to be different. Eg a German Server wouldn't accept something like yyyy.mm.dd, but dd.mm.yyyy would work fine here. But dd.mm.yyyy isn't working on an English version of an MS SQL Server. I wonder if there is one format, that EVERY MS SQL Server understands?
Can someone help me out with the following problem. While storing date in the SQL server it has its own format of storing(the first 3 digit denotin the format of display). Now if i need to convert this into Date format how do i do it???? Please note the coloum field is of the datatype LOCAL_TIME and this needs to be converted in to DATE for generating reports. I did try using CAST and CONVERT but could not succeed.
The field stores values of the form 1031826600 - i guess the seven digits from the end denote number of secs lapsed since Jan 1 1970.
