Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I have an application that inserts a variety of values into a SQL Server database. Among the columns are three DateTime values. I have code working properly on my test server, but when I port the identical code to my production database, I get the following error:
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime. The statement has been terminated
When I remove any type of insert involving date, the application works. I have tried the date in various formats, for instance "09/12/2001" and "20010912", but still get the same error. Obviously, there must be differences in the SQL Servers, but I have never run into this problem before and the current server is running many applications involving dates. I haven't got a clue as to how to solve this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have tables with columns that stores datetime data in int format onSQL server 2000. For example, the datetime for '4/5/200400:00:00.000am' is stored as 1081180800. "4/4/2004 11:59:59.000pm' is1081180799. I need to generate reports that display datetime columnsin "mm/dd/yyyy hh:mn:ss" format with am or pm at the end. Bellow ismy query statment.select iorg_name as org, ref_num as [ticketnum], c_first_name as[firstname], c_last_name as [lastname], sym as type, [description] assummary, status, dateadd(s,open_date,'12/31/1969 08:00:00pm') asopened, dateadd(s,last_mod_dt,'12/31/1969 08:00:00pm') as irt,dateadd(s,close_date,'12/31/1969 08:00:00pm') as closed fromAHD.dbo.HDreports reportview WHERE reportview.open_date >= 1080882000AND reportview.open_date <= 1081227599.The result shows correctly with those records that are in daylightsaving time. Those records in standard time show 1 hour behind.Does anyone know how to make this query correctly display the data inproperly?

I've got have a populated table and I want to convert a datetime column so it lists the date only (without the time component)
I tried to run this as a script, but returns an error:
update <table>
where <column>=convert(datetime,convert(char10),<column>,101))
When I run only this part, it does strip the date of the time component but it becomes a string, and I need this field stored as a datetime field:
convert(char(10),hire_date,101)
I'd appreciate any suggestions :)

Everytime I run a simple convert statement, from char to datetime, it works but when I use the `Select Convert(datetime, BeginDate)` in an insert statement it complains with a syntax error on the conversion from char to datetime. E.g.
Insert Into AlaskaData2( CurrIssueDate, InactivationDate)
select Convert (Datetime, CurrIssueDate) CurrIssueDate,
Convert(Datetime, InactivationDate) InactivationDate
from Alaskadata1
go

Hi,
I wanted to convert the varchar to date time and here is what i am doing
DECLARE @dt VARCHAR(20)
SET @dt = '20070111' -- YYYYMMDD format
select CONVERT(datetime, @dt, 120)
This works perfectly fine and the result would be- 2007-01-11 00:00:00.000
But if i changed my datetime format from YYYYMMDD to YYYYMMDDHHMM then this is failing and throwing
"Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string."
Can any one please let me know how do we achieve this?

I DONT understand why the Server is behaving wiered..
Hoping to get an answer soon.

Hi,
I'm facing a small issue with date conversions. It would have been great if someone could help me out. I have a field in my database (SQL Server 2000) called SavDateTime of type varchar(50). I store dates in this field in the format "dd/MM/yy hh:mms". A sample date would be "23/10/2007 10:15:30 AM". Now I need to have an order by for this field, say like,
select * from sample order by SavDateTime desc
When I execute this query I get an error saying "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.". I tried using the convert method also like CONVERT(DATETIME,SavDateTime,103), but the problem still exists. It would have been helpful if you could provide me with a solution to this problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Frens

What's wrong about
SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN [PO Date] BETWEEN CONVERT(Datetime, @FY + '/04/01')
AND CONVERT(Datetime, @FY -1 + '/03/31') THEN Quantity ELSE 0 END) AS Expr1,
[Item No_]

It seems I am facing again an unsurmountable problem It should be so simple but one has to spend hours researching how to handle it. The MSDN help on this subject is increadibly obscure.
I have input parameters @months int, @days int, @years int in a stored procedure.
All I want to do is to get a DateTime variable out of them.
DECLARE @dated DateTime.
Thus I want @dated to be set to a DateTime value with month = @months, day = @days and year = @years. The MSDN help says that no CAST should be used since the conversion from int to DateTime should be implicit!!
No examples are given. They seem to show how to CAST or CONVERT varchar to DateTime. Shall I first convert my int to varchar?
It is rudiculous. I've tried dozens of variants. Please help.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have a function that generates a range of DateTimes, which I then cast to SqlDateTime to compare with SqlDateTime values in a database.
The problem is my converted DateTimes come out in this type of format "6/2/2006 12:00:00 AM"
wheras my SqlDateTimes in the database are in this format "2006-01-18T00:00:00.0000000-12:00"
Any ideas how I can convert the DateTime values to SqlDateTime correctly so that I can compare them? As I said I tried creating a new SqlDateTime object with the DateTime value ie
DateTime dt = new DateTime("");
SqlDateTime sdt = new SqlDateTime(dt);
But that doesn't work correctly, its still not in the format that is in the database.

Hello everyone, I have searched and seached for an answer to something that I know has to be simple but have been unsuccessful. I appreciate any help...
I am trying to take a char (6) column named col001 and convert it to datetime.
The column is in mmddyy format. I am using SQL 2000, but have available sql 7.0 servers if there is a difference. I expect that I have to write a cursor but have been unable to get the correct syntax. Thanks everyone

For our DataWarehouse, we get several date fields from our mainframe system in a character format. When this data was loaded into SQL Server 6.5 using the CONVERT(DATETIME...) function, any dates containing 'bad' data would simply be replaced by a NULL automatically by the DBMS. We are now going to SQL 7.0, and I have found that when it hits a bad date it terminates the stored procedure, resulting with no update.
Is there a straightforward way around this? Possibly a script that will scrub the data, replacing bad data with NULLs? I'm trying to avoid writing something that will take the number of days per month and determine if it is valid.
Thanks
Michael

Hello Everyone,
I need help with conversion type. I'm using Visual Basic 6.0 as my frontend and SQL Server 2000 as my backend. There has been existing data in the database. I would like to know how to convert an integer to datetime format. For example:
This is the actual value from the database.

I'd like to know how to convert it datetime format.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, first time post so go easy.
I have been trying to find a way of creating a datetime comprised of getdate() and a time that i specify. I am trying to do this as shown below:
Declare @Test datetime
Declare @Test1 Datetime
Set @Test = getdate()
SET @Test1 = CONVERT(datetime, datepart(y, @Test) + datepart(m, @Test)+ datepart(d, @Test)+' 16:30:00',120)
So, i am building a string using datepart and then adding the time at the end. The 120 after the final comma is to define the style (as i am sure you will all know anyway).
When i run this i get the following error:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 35
Syntax error converting the varchar value ' 16:30:00' to a column of data type int.
If i take out the colons it runs but brings back the wrong date, the whole date seems to be dependant on the time part at the end.
I am sure this is a really simple problem and i am sorry if i am wasting you time but its late and i just cant see it. Any help would be fantastic.

Can anyone tell me what this error message means and how I can correct it on my statement:
Code:
Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
Here's my query statement:
Code:
SELECT animalid AS "Animal ID", name AS "Name", categoryid AS "Category ID", DATENAME(MONTH, dateBorn) + ' ' + DATENAME(DAY, dateBorn) + ', ' + DATENAME(YEAR, dateBorn) AS "Date of Birth"FROM animalWHERE categoryid = 'Cat' AND dateBorn = 'May%'
I know it has something to do with: dateBorn = 'May%' because when I took out Quote: AND dateBorn = 'May%' I get results, but I need to narrow it down to list the cats born in May.

Our database gets updated each week with text files spat out by a mainframe. Previously, the database was in Access; we copied and pasted the text files into Excel, ran macros on them to convert the data, then pasted the results directly into Access and this worked fine for us.
Now that we've moved the tables to SQL Server 2000, we're having problems with the data. We wanted to set up DTS packages for each file to just put them directly into SQL Server. This works for pretty much everything except for the dates.
The way the files are set up, they're comma delimited files with quotes around the text and nothing around the dates. The dates don't have any delimiters; they're just listed like 13012006. Every time we try to import these files into SQL, it gripes about the datatypes; we're trying to put the dates into datetime fields but SQL thinks they're strings. Eek! If we put date delimiters (like 13/01/2006) SQL pulls them in fine, but apparently the mainframe lacks the ability to put these delimiters in by itself and still run everything else OK. The person who writes the extracts has to do it in a language called 'Focus' which I've never heard of and don't know anything about, and he says what I'm asking for can't be done. OK...so now what?
I've tried and tried to convert these strings into dates using both CAST() and CONVERT() and just can't manage to do it. I know I'm missing something really obvious here; does anyone have any tips or advice? Thanks in advance.

hello all, I am having a problem calculating the difference, in days, between two dates, STARTDATE and ENDDATE. The data is stored in the database as char(8), formatted YYYYMMDD. "Null" values are stored as '00000000'. When I try to use DATEDIFF an exception is thrown: "the conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value" How can I fix this, and a get a result even if STARTDATE or ENDDATE is '00000000'? Changing the format of the stored data is not an option. Thanks for any assistance. Mike CREATE TABLE dbo.DATETIME1 (ID1 int,STARTDATE char(8),ENDDATE char(8))INSERT into DATETIME1 (ID1, STARTDATE, ENDDATE)VALUES (1, '20070105', '20070108')INSERT into DATETIME1 (ID1, STARTDATE, ENDDATE)VALUES (2, '20070105', '00000000')Select * from DATETIME1Select DATEDIFF(d, STARTDATE, Convert(datetime,ENDDATE) ) as Difference from DATETIME1 WHERE ID1 = 1

I want YYYYMMDD.
If I do this it works:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(8), GETDATE(), 112)
Gives me this:
20141114
If I treat as parameter it doesn't:
DECLARE @date_start datetime
SET @date_start = CONVERT(varchar(8), GETDATE(), 112)
SELECT @date_start;
Gives me this:
2014-11-14 00:00:00.000
how to pass the converted value in 112 style as a parameter?

I have a datetime field in my table. I call that field with a different software & it comes out in an unexpected format.
My db table stores it in unix format: 2013-08-12 09:29:00.000
But the software pulls it as: 8/12/2013 9:29:00 AM
I know it's possible, but I don't know how. How do I explicitly call it (in SQL) as a unix timestamp. Or how do I convert to a unix timestamp from the available data above?
I use Microsoft SQL 2008

Hello all,
New to the forums here. I'm not a beginner with SQL, but nor am I a SQL developer - network engineer who knows some scripting and the fundamentals of DB design/administration. There's the background.
I have a database of client information where a date is keyed in and stored as text. Because this is entered by end-users, the way it's entered varies - 1/1/2001, 01/01/2001, etc. Most use "1/1/2001" (note the date is not the same for each record)
I have 4,000 records to update and I need to try to convert the text string to the correct date - changing 1/1/2005 to the same date in proper date/time format. My database uses datetime as an integer calculating the number of days from 12/30/1800. Today's date would be 75508. Time is separated into different fields.
I can do the work to update the text to a single format to make the conversion easier, but I am having trouble locating the proper way to write a convert function to do this. I've searched online (which is how I came here) and have searched the forums without luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
