Cast A Varchar As A Date
Mar 5, 2007I have developed a CF application and now need to add some charts to it for admin purposes. I have a form page that uses a calendar widget to let a manager select a date range and submits to display data for that timeframe. I need to convert the formfields to a date for my WHERE clause in my query. My experience to this point has just been simple queries of one table. below is a sample I found and modified numerous time to try and make it work with no success.
Can anyone give me a hand with this?
SELECT COUNT ((CHG_TYP_CD)) AS CHG_TYP,
CHG_TYP_CD
FROM WRK_RQS
WHERE(CAST('form.startdate' AS datetime) >= RQS_SBM_TS)
AND
(CAST('form.startdate' AS datetime) <= RQS_SBM_TS)
GROUP BYCHG_TYP_CD

ELSE '1'

Nov 27, 2015I 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.

SQL's America Date Format Conflict With Australian Date Format
Nov 14, 2006
Hi
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?
Thanks
CAST DateTime Value To A Fixed-point Number
Jul 31, 2014I'm reviewing the CAST function using Microsoft SQL server. I generally understand the functionality, but my confusion lies in the results of a particular script which casts a DateTime value to a fixed-point number.
It is as follows:
DECLARE @From DATETIME
DECLARE @To NUMERIC(10,5)
SET @From = '2009-10-11T11:00:00'
SET @To = cast(@From AS NUMERIC(10,5))
PRINT @To
This results in: 40095.45833
I am completely lost as to how 40095.45833 = 2009-10-11T11:00:00. I just do not understand the how that fixed point number equates to that source DateTime data.

How do I change the format of the Date:

I believe this can be done with a Cast.
Am I correct?

Cast From String To Date
Sep 21, 2006I created an SSIS package that pulls in legacy data from a DB2 AS400. There is an In Date field that is stored on the AS400 as OdbcType.Date or DATE. However, when I use SSIS to pull in the data, SQL wants it to be a string so I gave up and let SQL have it's way.
Now in my SELECT statement, I have this:
SELECT TLMST.TLNUMBER, TLMST.DOGNAM, BRDMST.BRDesc, TLMST.INDT
FROM TLMST INNER JOIN
BRDMST ON TLMST.BRDCOD = BRDMST.BreedNumber
WHERE (TLMST.INDT >= @startdate) AND (TLMST.INDT <= @enddate)
ORDER BY TLMST.INDT, TLMST.TLNUMBER
Because I see the dates stored in TLMST are yyyy-mm-dd format, this is not working. It is not pulling any records. I tried to use the CAST statement but I keep getting errors about casting from a string to a date and data overflow errors.
Should I go back and re-do the SSIS or is there a way to pull the records for this? Thanks for the information
