I have a table named "shift" and I need to setup my query to return only data where the field "startime" = today. The problem I am running into is the starttime field it laid out like "2005-12-29 14:00:00" with different time values. I need to ruturn everything that has todays date regardless of the time value. I tried using GetDate() but that is returning data for other days as well or just data before or after the current time. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is driving me crazy! Thanks, Garrett

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to update the time in a datetime field with the current time.
Fields current value is:
2013-11-11 00:00:00.000
I want to insert this into another table and when I do I want to grab the current time and update that field.
field name: picked_dt
Table: oeordlin
or is there a way through sql to update the time when the picked_dt is updated?
I've this query
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
Let's say, current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045
So, i will get
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
206 | 8/1/2005| 1950 | 88
...
...
207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
208 | 8/7/2005| 2255 | 77
209 | 8/7/2005| 2140 | 77
Can someone can show me to filter data between
t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND TIME>=CurrentTime
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) AND TIME<=CurrentTime
If current date is 8 AUG 2005 and current time is 2045, so the result shown as follow
ID | Date (this is datetime) | Time (this is integer) | Value
--------------------------------------------------
204 | 8/1/2005| 2359 | 90
205 | 8/1/2005| 2250 | 99
...
...
207 | 8/7/2005| 1845 | 77
I only have this query,
SELECT
t1.ID, t1.Date, t1.Time,
t1.VALUE
FROM RESULT WHERE t1.Date>=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),DATEADD(d,-7,GETDATE()),101) AND
t1.Date<CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101)
lack of idea to put the TIME condition.
Plz help me..
I have a reference table that currently has no web front-end. It's a small table(<10 rows) that's not going to change very often (maybe once every few months).
We manually update rows on the table via the GUI table interface in Enterprise Mgr., not in T-SQL.
What I'd like to do is have SQL Server automatically update the "Last_Modified" column with the current timestamp. I can do it on an Insert using the GetDate() function, but if I update a row, this doesn't work.
Is there a function I can use that can auto-populate for both insert and updates?
Riding MVJ's excellent F_TABLE_DATE function, I often use this view for current date and time information.SELECTCURRENT_TIMESTAMP AS Now,
DATEADD(MINUTE, DATEDIFF(MINUTE, 0.00069445, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousMinute,
DATEADD(MINUTE, DATEDIFF(MINUTE, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisMinute,
DATEADD(MINUTE, DATEDIFF(MINUTE, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0.00069445) AS nextMinute,
DATEADD(HOUR, DATEDIFF(HOUR, 0.0416667, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousHour,
DATEADD(HOUR, DATEDIFF(HOUR, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisHour,
DATEADD(HOUR, DATEDIFF(HOUR, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0.0416667) AS nextHour,
DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 1, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousDay,
DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisDay,
DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 1) AS nextDay,
DATEADD(WEEK, DATEDIFF(WEEK, 7, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousWeek,
DATEADD(WEEK, DATEDIFF(WEEK, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisWeek,
DATEADD(WEEK, DATEDIFF(WEEK, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 7) AS nextWeek,
DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 31, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousMonth,
DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisMonth,
DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, -1, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS nextMonth,
DATEADD(QUARTER, DATEDIFF(QUARTER, 92, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousQuarter,
DATEADD(QUARTER, DATEDIFF(QUARTER, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisQuarter,
DATEADD(QUARTER, DATEDIFF(QUARTER, -1, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS nextQuarter,
DATEADD(YEAR, DATEDIFF(YEAR, 365, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS previousYear,
DATEADD(YEAR, DATEDIFF(YEAR, 0, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS thisYear,
DATEADD(YEAR, DATEDIFF(YEAR, -1, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP), 0) AS nextYearFor example, If I want this weeks data I just join against this view and useWHEREDtCol >= thisWeek
AND DtCol < nextWeekOr previous months dataWHEREDtCol >= previousMonth
AND DtCol < thisMonth
EDIT: Faster week calculations.
Hi all, I have a question about inserting records into sql server. Iam brand new to sql server, always using oracle previously. Beforetoday, I had always written statement such as this:INSERT INTO TABLE (COL1) VALUES SYSDATE;How is this accomplished in sql? I am using a datetime data type, Ihope that is correct . . .Thank you for your help.Ryanp.s. I tried getdate(), getdate, sysdate, and current_timestamp. Allto no avail :(
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,I would like to have a date_last_modified field for one of my SQLtables. Instead of coding my front end to keep up with this field isthere a way to user a formula for this column in Enterprise Manager sothat each time a record is created or updated the current date/timewill be inserted/updated? I tried using getdate() but then the fieldalways has the current time, which is not what I am looking for. I amlooking for the time the row is updated or created. Is this possible?Thank you!

I want to capture date and time record is inserted to database.
My table got a field called
field name datatype length
rec_datetime datetime 8
what is the best way to enter value?.
HELP... I’m new to ASP.NET so please
excuse my inexperienced question. I’m using VWD 2005 and a remote SQL 2000.In the (Configure Data Source) under the (Select) tab I have
this simple query:
Select * from calendarWhere event_date = now
Right off the that bat you can probably see the problem. I
just want to retrieve all event at is equal to today (current date). In classic
ASP is can use <%now%> and in ColdFusion I can use #now()#. What is the
proper syntax the get the server current date and time, like (getDate()) in SQL?
Thank you in advanced for you help!
Is there an AutoType Datatype for Date field. just like the Identity property for an ID field.
It increments by 1 for each new record.
The same way if i add a record to the table can it automatically put todays date or date and time for the field date created in my table.
The reason is i am uploading the record from xml file(Using SQLXMLBULKLOAD) so i dont have a chance to mention on the front end code or in the XSD file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
My table has more columns than this but I will just use the ones here tht are important.
I have two columns in a table these are "ExpiryDate" and "Archived".
When the row is created the "Archived" field will be null but the user will have entered a expiry date. When this date is reached I would like the "Archived" data to change to "1". Is this possible? Would I have to do it through some kind of script or can I set the database to do this automatically?
Thank you, Mark
I need an SQL string that inserts the current date into a database.
So far I have tried:
SQL = "INSERT INTO X (START_DATE) VALUES ('" & Date.Now & "')"
mycomm = New SqlCommand(sql, myconn)
mycomm.ExecuteNonQuery()
However, there is a problem with the SQL command. The problem is related to the date. Is there a way of programatically inserting the current date/time into the SQL database? Language used is VB.
Greetings,I have an e-timesheet application.i made a function that takes the startdate of the week:public SqlDataReader GetProjectsActive(DateTime SheetDate) { SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["connectionString"]); SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("GetProjectsActive", myConnection); myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter parameterSheetDate = new SqlParameter("@SheetDate", SqlDbType.DateTime); parameterSheetDate.Value = SheetDate; myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterSheetDate); myConnection.Open(); SqlDataReader dr = myCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection); return dr; } i run the application and i pass the value 6/1/2008 (date without time) to the GetProjectsActive but what i notice that the storedprocedure adds the current time to the passsed date when it has been executed so some projects will not appear since the startdate and enddate of the project are only dates so i try this solution: parameterSheetDate.Value = SheetDate.Date;and it works finebut my question why the current time has been added to the storedprocedure automatically although i pass only the date 6/1/2008 date????your help is highly appreciated.Best regards.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI come in to work 6.30am, and need to audit what happened from 5pm when I left to 6.30am this morning. I have used code to search 13.5 hours back from any given time:
SELECT * FROM TRANSACTION_HISTORY
WHERE TRANSACTION_HISTORY.ACTIVITY_DATE_TIME > (SELECT DATEADD(hour,-13.5,(SELECT MAX (TRANSACTION_HISTORY.ACTIVITY_DATE_TIME) FROM TRANSACTION_HISTORY)))
Problem is if I run query later, I lose time from the start, eg. If I run query at 7am, I only get results from 5.30pm onwards. Rather than change criteria every day, I wanted to able to search from 6.30am of the current day, back to 5.30pm of the previous day.
I am trying to match records that are >= the current date. I have tried using:
SELECT DISTINCT name
FROM table
WHERE datefield >= DATEPART(month, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(day, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(year, GETDATE())
ORDER BY name
but this is not giving me the result that I am looking for. What is the best way to match a DateTime field type using the current date without the time?
I hope to update a DateTime column value with a Time input parameter. Poor attempt below but it looks like the @ApptTime param is coming in as 10:45:00.0000000 and I might have an existing @SendOnDate as: 2015-10-05 07:00:00.000...I hope to end up with 2015-10-05 10:45:00.000

Good morning...

Actually i find just "datetime" format but give me the format 21/01/2000 01:01:20.
How to do for having date and time in two different field.
Sorry for my english....

Hi there.
I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE')
Can anyone out there help?
Please advise. Thanks.
Best.

I want to display only the date part of a date field which contains both date & time information.
For example I have the value '2013-11-14 00:00:00.000' in my result set, and ideally I would like to show only '2013-11-14'.
I have looked up the datepart() command, however I can't work out how to return all parts of the date, rather than just the year, month, or day.
I have passed createdDate from UI to Stored procedure.createdDate field declared with DateTime.it is having value 2014-07-01.I need to fetch records from the database based upon the created field.but Create_TM in database having value Date with timestamp.so how would i change the createdfield in stored procedure.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ByDateRange]
@Feed VARCHAR(50),
@CreatedDate DATETIME
select * from Date_table where Create_TM = @CreatedDate
I do realize that his could be posted in a few spots but I think the answer is in the SQL.
I have a ASP.NET page, with a SqlDataSource, Text Box and Calendar Controls. I have the textbox and calendar controls eval'ed to the same sql data source DateTime Field. The text box is formatted eval to small time and the calendars eval has no formatting.
ex:
<asp:TextBox ID="START_TIME" Text='<%# Eval("EVENT_START","{0:t}") %>' runat=server Width=200></asp:TextBox>
I want to merge the two controls; one has the date the other has the time when I update the pages data to the SqlDataSource field EVENT_START. I've tried a couple of methods, but I would like some other opinions. As Sql server only supports date and time together I am storing the two together.
I could merge the two together in the code behind on the update button's event handler or merge the two during the update query using parameters.
Not that I could get an illegal date for the calendar control, but I could get garbage from the textfield time. So I still would have to do validation on the text field before the SQL server could do the update.
There's a few ways to go about this, so I was wondering if anyone else has figured out an elegant way to handle it.

Hi,
I'm trying to use the Update command to change a field value. I only know the field name at run-time, how do you write this command. This is what I have done which just sets the variable @cFieldName to the value and not the field within the table.
UPDATE [Atable] SET @cFieldName = @aValue WHERE ([Id] = @Id_1)
Thanks
Dear Frends
Iam using SQL Server 2000
Is there any way to use Date time field to store value before the Date 01-Jan-1753?
Thanks
I'm adding up quantities of an item that are entered in one after another, so the date is the same, but the time differs.
I used the "first" function in access which works the way I want, but sql7 doesn't use the same function. The "convert" function does not work in access but Here is the gist of the query:
SELECT first(CONVERT(varchar,transactions.tran_date,101)) AS [trandate], transactions.tran_type,
SUM(transactions.qty) AS totqty,...etc.
thanx,

I've developed a system that uses SQL Server as the DB backend. I'm having problems saving date/time fields from SOME- not all, workstations. The workstations I'm having problems with are all NT WORKSTATION 4.0, and the
native OS language is portuguese. The server is NT SERVER 4.0, and the native OS language is english. All machines have the same international settings,
portuguese(Brazilian). SQL Server is english version 6.5.
I've been using the SQL Trace utility to track what's been going on, and I
know that on the NT WORKSTATION machines, the dates get sent to the SQL Server in portuguese format, whereas on the other machines, it gets properly sent, in english format. I've read the booksonline, but just don't seem to figure out what and where to configure. Can anyone shed some light into this problem, ie, HOW EXACLTY TO CONFIGURE client workstations in order to get date/time problems solved?
Hi all,
I have a table that I've imported into SQL - there is a field in there for date that must have used now(); as its default value (access).
So the values are something like:
01/11/2004 12:16:42
I need a way to change the data so that the time element removed is the field just holds the date. Failing that a way to insert this from the existing field into a new field stripping the date off en route would be a great help.
Many thanks
Phil
We have a piece of software and database for student registers.
One of the biggest problems is the database has been difficult to work with, as I have had to work out the date using dateadd functions and combine fields from different tables.
I've now got the date correctly, but I want to add the time to the time part of a datetime field.
The time field is already stored in a datetime field, but the date in this field is always 1899-12-30.
This is the function I am using to get the date:
Code:
DATEADD(dd, e.day_of_week, DATEADD(ww, sm.week, '01/08/2011'))
And this is the function I use to get the time (from a datetime field):
Code:
SUBSTRING(CAST(e.start_time AS varchar(20)), 13, 5)
With the DATEADD function it appears you can only add individual elements each time hh, mi, ss.
Would I have to add a DATEADD function for each time element in order to add the time to the date?
I have a datetime field named 'EntryDate' in one of the sql tables.
I want to update the time portion of this field and provide a default time of 8:00 AM IF the time portion is empty.
How can i do this?
I m using ASP.NET 2005 with VB,C#.
I m using GridView to display the data.
My problem is with the database field date.
I want to use only the date and the fields are manufacturing date and expiry date of some items.
But,in the gridview it displays the time which is by default same for all the entries which 12:00A.M.
I have used date picker for designing.
What should be the validation for showing only the date and not the time ??
How to hide the time from the gridview.
I m using SQL Server 2005 to store database where i have selected the datatype as date/time.
Hello!
I am using a Ms-Access DS which is accessed by a website's server-side scripts.
What I would like to do is set an existing record's date/time field to null. I have tried to simply alter its value by not including any data within the sharps (##), however that did not work.
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you!
Dave
If I have a datetime field, RequestDate, and a time field, DecisionTime, how do I add just the date portion of RequestDate to DecisionTime?
