Converting A Date From One Timezone To Another Timezone

Feb 23, 2004

Hi,
I have a requirement for a function which would convert a given date with a present timezone to a new timezone.

For eg : the function would be called lets say TZ

then I can issue the following select statement to get the new timezone

select getdate(), TZ(getdate(), PST, EST)

where PST is the current timezone and EST is the new timezone.

I know that ORACLE has a built in function to do this. Am just wondering if theres some function that I can use to accomplish the task.

Thanks

Obtaining Timezone Offset In T-SQL.

Jul 23, 2005

In MS SQL 2000, I would like to obtain the timezone offset from UTC fora given date. For today's date, I can doDATEDIFF(ss,GETDATE(),GETUTCDATE()). However, the offset for a futuredate may not be the same as today because some countries go in DaylightSaving mode. Can you suggest a way to obtain the timezone offset forany given date?ThanksYash

Timezone Of DATETIME Data Type

Aug 23, 2006

Does the SQL Server equivalent of the ANSI SQL data type DATETIME (TIMESTAMP, if I'm not mistaken) have the notion of time zone? In a project, I store a complex timestamp, composed of a DATETIME field and a FLOAT type, which gives me a sub-microsecond resolution for thousands of years (all right, it's a bit of an overkill but not by much). I use both plain SQL commands and ADO.Net to store the data. It wasn't until I hit a violation of a constraint that I discovered that, at least the way I am doing it, SQL has no concept of time zones: when I wrote a value executing a SQL INSERT (and providing the DATETIME as a string, like this: '8/23/2006 12:43:09 PM') and then when I tried to store the same thing using the ADO.Net SqlAdapter->Update(), it said it was not the same value! Well, it turns out my object was set to be local time, while when parsing it off of a string the kind is "unspecified". The funny thing is that it appears as though just before writing to the SQL Server, the ADO.Net methods do a conversion to local but it ultimately seems to be keeping it as UTC because only then my DateTime values would be different. I can live with that but if I'm missing something and I have the ability to store the time zone as well, I'd like to do that.

Transact SQL :: Convert Time In Specific Timezone To UTC (and Vice-versa)

Nov 17, 2015

In C#, I can convert UTC time to a specific timezone using:

TimeZoneInfo localTimeZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("Pacific Standard Time");
DateTime UTCTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeToUtc(localTime, localTimeZone);

Is there any equivalent function in T-SQL (SQL Server 2014 / SQL Azure)?

Specifically, I want to be able to convert a time into UTC before inserting it into a table. Right now I am doing:

INSERT INTO Incident (IncidentDescription, dtOccurred)
VALUES (@IncidentDescription, DATEADD(hour, 8, @dtOccurred))

I don't want to hardcode "8" and I want it to adjust for daylight savings time (DST). 

Is there any concise solution that does not require me to define SQL functions or have lookup tables? I also don't want to use the difference between GETDATE() and SYSUTCDATETIME(), because the timezone of my server is not my local timezone.

Converting A Decimal Date Value To Date Field

Feb 4, 2015

I am trying to convert a decimal date value to a date value that I can use in formulas but am having a lot of trouble.My date value currently shows in decimal format YYYYMMDD. I want to convert this to a date so I can then find the number of days between two dates.I have tried convert (datetime, convert(varchar(8),left(qhstdt,8))) with qhstdt as my decimal date field but I receive the error message below:

Error: SQL0204 - CONVERT in *LIBL type *N not found.

I have also tried converting it using (year(QHSTDT)*10000+100*month(QHSTDT)+ day(QHSTDT))) but when I convert the dates using this formula, I can get an incorrect number of days when I try to subtract one from the other.What formula can I use to convert my YYYYMMDD field to a format that will allow me to compare number of days between two dates?

I am using SQL server 2008 R2. I have a query where I have dates in different columns pulled from my database among other things. The client is requiring that the date be formatted as mmddyyyy. The database returns the date value as varchar (8) and formatted as yyyymmdd. I have tried several things to get this to be converted but haven't had any luck. My query is as follows.

select appointments.last_name as 'patient last name', appointments.first_name as 'patient first name', appointments.address_line_1, appointments.address_line_2, appointments.city,
appointments.state, appointments.zip, appointments.home_phone, appointments.appt_nbr, appointments.appt_date, person.date_of_birth,
person.sex, patient.med_rec_nbr, provider_mstr.national_provider_id, provider_mstr.first_name,

Error Converting Date

Jan 31, 2008

Good Morning Forum

First time poster here, but I have gleaned much needed support using the forum in the past, so
many thanks to all.

Well, on to business.

I have a strange problem with a T-SQL stored procedure my company uses for reporting.

Around the Christmas holiday period, it just stopped working.

I managed to track the error down to the code below:

(Just the code to recreate the error.)

declare

@g datetime,

@g2 datetime

select @g2=getdate()

select @g=convert(datetime,convert(varchar(10),@g2,101))

select @g,@g2 , SERVERPROPERTY('PRODUCTVERSION'), SERVERPROPERTY ('PRODUCTLEVEL'), SERVERPROPERTY ('EDITION')

When this is run, I get this error message:

Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 6

The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.

Here is the About information from .
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.1399.00
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.1399.00
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)
Microsoft MSXML 2.6 3.0 5.0 6.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.1433
Operating System 5.1.2600


I know this is not the best way to use datetime or conversions, but I did not write it, I am just supporting it.

The strange thing is, the above code has worked every week since January 2006?

The even stranger thing is, it runs on perfectly well on Server 2000 and on the version below that has not had
any recent service packs installed.

Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.3042.00
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.3042.00
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.086.1830.00 (srv03_sp1_rtm.050324-1447)
Microsoft MSXML 2.6 3.0 6.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.3790.1830
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42
Operating System 5.2.3790


Is this a bug, or have I lost the plot?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

P.S: The style code 101, if changed to 103 allows the code to work. But, when apllied to the pre-RTM server, is
returns the same error message.

Converting Varchar To Date From Asp.net To Sort

Jul 20, 2004

for some odd reason our other programmer used varchar datatype to store dates. he claims it gives him more control. now i am trying to sort it based on date. so i create a procedure:

CREATE PROCEDURE GetAllWeekEnding

AS
Select convert(datetime, we) as we2 FROM tblArchive order by we2
GO

if i use the convert function in the procedure, i'll get an error msg when i run the code. this is the code i am using.

Dim MyConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionStringSQL"))
Dim MyCommand As SqlCommand

MyCommand = New SqlCommand("GetAllWeekEnding", MyConnection)
MyCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
MyConnection.Open()

Dim mydr As SqlDataReader = MyCommand.ExecuteReader()
While mydr.Read()
DropDownList1.Items.Add(mydr("we2"))
End While

mydr.Close()
MyConnection.Close()

the error message is: No accessible overloaded 'ListItemCollection.Add' can be called without a narrowing conversion

any ideas?
