Dear Friends,
I have a doubt relation when converting a field€¦
I €˜m converting a string to datetime inside a SQL command in an OLE DB Source using this:
convert(datetime,[Maturity],103) As MaturityDate
It€™s better to use inside the OLE DB Source or is better to convert it with data conversion transformation??
Regards!!
Thanks
I am inserting date and time data into a SQL Server 2012 Express table from an application. The application is providing the date and time as a string data type. Is there a TSQL way to convert the date and time string to an SQL datetime date type? I want to do the conversion, because SQL displays an error due to the
My date and time string from the application looks like : 3/11/2014 12:57:57 PM

i need it to add this data in sql server , in smalldatetime formation colum .
plz help.
I am trying to convert a date-string of this format (DDMMMYY - ex. 06JAN15) to datetime but I keep on getting errors:
codes that I tried:
convert(datetime, '06JAN15', 6)
convert(datetime, '06JAN15', 112)
What date format code should I use for DDMMMYY?
I've been trying to do the following:
Code Snippet
if year(@SomeDateTime) <> @SomeYear
set @SomeDateTime= convert(datetime, @SomeYear+ '1231', 112)
If variable @SomeDateTime evaluates to 20080101 and @SomeYear = 2006, I wish that my variable @SomeDateTime becomes 20061231 (December 31st).
The way it's written now, it doesn't work... @SomeDateTIme evaluates to 1908-11-12.... ?!
I have below string, which is a datetime value
I want to convert it into datetime data type and insert into table
DECLARE @Date VARCHAR(100)
SET @Date='10312013122642'
Being a newbie to SSIS I'm not sure of the most efficient method of converting a DateTime object to a String.
I'm from a C# background where this would be easy using DateTime.ToString("YYYYMMdd"). I want to use the date in a file name so don't require most of the parts.
I'm sure I could do this using a script task to produce a file name for each row of data in my table and add that filename to the dataset but it seem like overkill to do something that should be simple. Also as I'm supposed to be getting to grips with SSIS I shouldn't keep running back to what I know.
My current approach is to derive a column and build up an expression to convert the date into a string. The only problem being that it doesn't work.
The expression I'm working with is:
(DT_WSTR, 50)([OrgName] ) + "_" + (DT_WSTR, 50)( [PayrollName] ) + (DT_WSTR, 4)(YEAR( [ProcessedDate] )) + (DT_WSTR, 2)(MONTH( [ProcessedDate] )) + (DT_WSTR, 2)(DAY( [ProcessedDate] )) ".txt"
Can anyone see where I'm going wrong?
All comments greatly received.
Cheers

Hello forum,
Is it possible to convert a date stored as a string into a datetime with integration services 2005? My attempts with the €œdata conversion€? fail. The string type form of the date is €˜yyyy-mm-dd€™ and the desired result for use in a Union All is €˜dd/mm/yyyy 12:00:00AM.€™ This outcome is needs so that match on the date can populate a fact table, as the results are coming from two different databases.
All advice/help welcomed.

Hi I am having this problem. I have created a stored proc that uses dynamic sql. Now this works fine when I use it in Query Analyzer.
Now when I try to use this in Reporting services it gives me the error:
'
Failed to generate fields for the query
Check the query syntax or click refresh on query toolbar.
Failed to convert parameter value from a string to a datetime
'
My sotred proc is as:
<quote>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[rptDetailedAuditsIssued]
(
@param1 varchar(50) ,
@param2 varchar(50),

begin
declare @strSQL varchar(500)
set @strSQL = 'SELECT * FROM v_DetailedAuditsIssued WHERE '

When I run
rptDetailedAuditsIssued '','','','1/1/2000','1/1/2001'in query editor it runs fine. But gives me that error every time I run it in SSRS. I think I got this problem but in earlier cases I used to set the param values to null in Repservices and it worked but its not working this time. This time it stops complaining but does generate any fields.
Writing a SQL Function as below
the input parameter for function should be datetime of sql datetimeformat
and out put should be a string = yyyymmdd1 or yyyymmdd2
The last character 1 or 2 based on below condition
if time is between 6AM and 5.59PM then 1
if 6PM to 5.59AM then 2
i am trying to take a field that has part of a date in it, so I have to parse it out as follows:
SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)
This is because a date of 04/16/2014 will show as 160416 in the first part of the field I need to parse it out of, thus becoming 04162014.
From there I then need to convert this "date" into a legitimate SQL datetime type, so that I can then run a DATEDIFF to compare it to when the record was actually entered, which is a separate field in the table, and already in datetime format.
When I use the below statement, I am getting the message that, "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string."
CAST((SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)) as datetime)
I also tried CONVERT(datetime, (SUBSTRING(a1.Field1, 3, 2) + SUBSTRING(a1.Field1,5,2) + '20' + LEFT(a1.Field1,2)), and got the same message.
how I can parse that field, then convert it to a datetime format for running a DATEDIFF statement?
Hello,
I have tried a few different things within a Derived Column transform to convert a unicode yymmdd date string to SQL Server DateTime.
Does anyone have ideas on how to do this?

I am trying to access a date column up to millisecond precession. So I cast date to as follows:
Code BlockCONVERT(varchar(23),CREATE_DATE,121)
I get millisecond part as a result of query but it€™s €œ000€?.
When I try to test the format by using getDate instead of DateTime column I get right milliseconds.
CONVERT(varchar(23),GetDate(),121) --Gives right milliseconds in return
Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this.

hi,
How do i convert a varchar field into the datetime data type? the reason i need this lies in the requirement that in the earlier data base the column that is hlding the date value is having the data type as varchar. and in the new design the column data type is datetime. i am using sql scripts for the data migration from the older design to the newer and got stuck with this datetime convertion issue. do let me know the best possible solution.
following are the sample data that is theer in the older table for the date.
12/12/2003
1/13/2007
01132004
1-1-2004
1.2.2001
there is no uniformity of the data that is stored currently.
thnkx in adv.

I have a date filed 12/26/2006 and a time field 7:00am. How can I combine them in my select statement and get a DateTime field.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello All,
In following statement in SQL, I'm first converting 'IssueDate' with style 101 into 'nvarchar' then converting to Datatime.
convert(datetime,convert (nvarchar,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX,101)) <= '3/29/2004')
Which is right in below one.
1. Do I need to first convert into nvarchar then datetime.
e.g. convert(datetime,convert (nvarchar,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX,101)) <= '3/29/2004')
2. Otherwise can I directly convert into datetime.
convert(datetime,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX ,101) <= '3/29/2004')
Please reply to me asap.

Hi,
I have DB2 date value 00000000. If I'm exporting to SQL server using openquery that is automaticaly converting to char of 8 and stored as the same value 00000000.
My question is how I can convert them as datetime value in SQL server 2000.?
I have a query that determines a product's date of manufacture from the serial number. The day is formatted as a day number (e.g. "107" = April 17) and the year as a two-digit year. All dates can be assumed to be 21st century.
I need to take this data, which is in two separate fields in varchar format, and represent it as a date in mm/dd/yyyy format. So for example, if the field values are "107" and "06" I need to display "04/17/2006."
Thanks in advance for the correct formula!

thx in advance!
I have values in seconds (integers) in a database column and I want to convert those values to datetime. For example: 102 into 1:42(60 seconds = 1 minute + 42 seconds = 1:42), 150 into 2:30, etc.
I've been working for hours today on this, but haven't been able to come up with a solution.
I have a stored procedure that takes a @INPUT_DATE Varchar(25) as an input parameter. It passes this @Date to a User Defined function that checks if @Date is a valid date and then returns either the date or a "1" for not a valid date. If it is not a valid date, I use the RAISERROR and stop the insert call.
Here is the parts from the Stored Procedure
Code:
--Input Parameter
@INPUT_DATEvarchar(25) = NULL,
--Send the Parameter to the User Defined Function
DECLARE @Error AS INT
DECLARE @ErrorMessage AS VARCHAR(200)
--Check to make sure a all dates are entered correctly
SET @INPUT_DATE = dbo.Function_Check_Date(@INPUT_DATE)
IF (@INPUT_DATE = '1')
BEGIN
SET @Error = 1
SET @ErrorMessage = '-Date formatted wrong'
RAISERROR(@ErrorMessage, 15, 1)
END
-------------------------------------------------------
IF @Error <> 1
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Table1(DateColumn)
VALUES (CONVERT(DATETIME, @INPUT_DATE))
And here is my User Defined Function
Code:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Function_Check_Date]
(
@Temp VarChar(25)
)
RETURNS VARCHAR
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Date VarChar(25)
IF (ISDATE(@Temp) = 0) AND (@Temp <> 'N/A') AND (@Temp <> '')
BEGIN
SET @Date = '1'
END
ELSE IF (@Temp = 'N/A') OR (@Temp = '') --For not availables or Blanks
BEGIN
SET @Date = CONVERT(DATETIME, '1/1/1900')
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Date = CONVERT(DATETIME, @Temp)
END
RETURN @Date
END
The error is occuring when I try to convert the @INPUT_DATE to a datetime in the insert statement. The field value for the DateColumn in the database is a DateTime format. The error I receive is Error Converting datetime from character string. But when I test all these items in Query Analyzer, I am able to do each step without error?
Thanks for any advice, as I am rather confused.
