Converting Milliseconds In Hours

Oct 16, 2006

Hi!

I have the difference between two dates in milliseconds. I want to convert this difference to the format hh:mm:ss.mmm, without the date. So, if the difference is bigger then one day, I would like to show it like this, for example: 36:25:14.047

How can I do this?



Thank you!

Converting Datetimeoffset Field To Datetime Field / Why Milliseconds Value Is Incorrect

Nov 17, 2012

DECLARE @datetimeoffset datetimeoffset(3)
DECLARE @datetime datetime
SELECT @datetimeoffset = '2012-11-08T17:22:13.575+00:00'
SELECT @datetime = @datetimeoffset
SELECT @datetimeoffset AS '@datetimeoffset ', @datetime AS 'datetime'
__________________________________________________ ___________
Result of above SQL is
@datetimeoffset datetime
2012-11-08 17:22:13.575 +00:002012-11-08 17:22:13.577
__________________________________________________ ____________

The result should be '2012-11-08 17:22:13.575', why the milliseconds value is incorrect

Strange Results Converting To Hours

Mar 6, 2008

Hi
I'm getting strange results when converting a number to hours and minutes.

The following section of code....

AbsentMinutes,
CONVERT(varchar(5), DATEADD([minute], [AbsentMinutes], 0), 108) AS AbsentHours,
[Term 1 Minutes],
CONVERT(varchar(5), DATEADD([minute], [Term 1 Minutes], 0), 108) AS Term1Hours,

......is yielding the following results.

AbsentMins 6480 AbsentHours 12:00
Term 1 Mins 21540 Term 1 Hours 23:00

Obviously thats not right but I cant see where.

Can anyone advise please? This has worked for me previously on other data.

Reporting Services :: Converting Hours In Decimal To Time Format Using Expression

Nov 10, 2015

Is it possible to convert for the following SQL statement into SSRS Expression:

SELECT
RIGHT('00' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), FLOOR(SUM(Hours))), 2)
+ ':' + RIGHT('00' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), FLOOR((SUM(Hours) - FLOOR(SUM(Hours))) * 60)), 2) + ':' + RIGHT('00' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(2),
FLOOR((SUM(Hours) - FLOOR(SUM(Hours))) * 60 - FLOOR((SUM(Hours) - FLOOR(SUM(Hours))) * 60)) * 60), 2)
FROM TableTime

For example I need SSRS expression for converting 1.75 hours into 01:45:00.

Transact SQL :: To Display Days Hours Mins Format Based On Business Hours

Apr 22, 2015

I want to display Days Hours Mins Format.

I am Having two columns Like below,

Col1 (in days)    col2 (In Hours : Mins)
3days  4:5 

In this first have to  add Col1 and Col2 (Here one day is equals to 9 hours ) so the addition is 31.5

From this 31.5 I should display 3 Days 4 Hours 30 Mins because 31.5 contains 3 (9 hours) days 4 Hours and .5 is equals to 30 mins.

Breaking Down Total Hours Worked Into Day And Evening Hours

Sep 21, 2006

I have data coming from a telephony system that keeps track of when anemployee makes a phone call to conduct a survey and which project numberis being billed for the time the employee spends on that phone call in aMS SQL Server 2000 database (which I don't own).The data is being returned to me in a view (see DDL for w_HR_Call_Logbelow). I link to this view in MS access through ODBC to create alinked table. I have my own view in Access that converts the integernumbers for start and end date to Date/Time and inserts some otherinformation i need.This data is eventually going to be compared with data from someelectronic timesheets for purposes of comparing entered hours vs hoursactually spent on the telephone, and the people that will be viewing thedata need the total time on the telephone as wall as that total brokendown by day/evening and weekend. Getting weekend durations is easyenough (see SQL for qryTelephonyData below), but I was wondering ifanyone knew of efficient set-based methods for doing a day/eveningbreakdown of some duration given a start date and end date (with theday/evening boundary being 17:59:59)? My impression is that to do thiscorrectly (i.e., handle employees working in different time zones,adjusting for DST, and figuring out what the boundary is for switchingfrom evening back to day) will require procedural code (probably inVisual Basic or VBA).However, if there are set-based algorithms that can accomplish it inSQL, I'd like to explore those, as well. Can anyone give any pointers?Thanks.--DDL for view in MS SQL 2000 database:CREATE VIEW dbo.w_HR_Call_LogASSELECT TOP 100 PERCENT dbo.TRCUsers.WinsID, dbo.users.username ASInitials, dbo.billing.startdate, dbo.billing.startdate +dbo.billing.duration AS EndDate,dbo.billing.duration, dbo.projects.name ASPrjName, dbo.w_GetCallTrackProject6ID(dbo.projects.descript ion) AS ProjID6,dbo.w_GetCallTrackProject10ID(dbo.projects.descrip tion) AS ProjID10,dbo.billing.interactionidFROM dbo.projects INNER JOINdbo.projectsphone INNER JOINdbo.users INNER JOINdbo.TRCUsers ON dbo.users.userid =dbo.TRCUsers.UserID INNER JOINdbo.billing ON dbo.users.userid =dbo.billing.userid ON dbo.projectsphone.projectid =dbo.billing.projectid ONdbo.projects.projectid = dbo.projectsphone.projectidWHERE (dbo.billing.userid 0)ORDER BY dbo.billing.startdateI don't have acess to the tables, but the fields in the view comethrough as the following data types:WinsID - varchar(10)Initials - varchar(30)startdate - long integer (seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00)enddate - long integer (seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00)duration - long integer (enddate - startdate)ProjID10 - varchar(15)interactionid - varchar(255) (the identifier for this phone call)MS Access SQL statement for qryTelephonyData (based on the view,w_HR_Call_Log):SELECT dbo_w_HR_Call_Log.WinsID, dbo_w_HR_Call_Log.ProjID10,FORMAT(CDATE(DATEADD('s',startdate-(5*60*60),'01-01-197000:00:00')),"yyyy-mm-dd") AS HoursDate,CDATE(DATEADD('s',startdate-(5*60*60),'01-01-1970 00:00:00')) ASStartDT,CDATE(DATEADD('s',enddate-(5*60*60),'01-01-1970 00:00:00')) AS EndDT,DatePart('w',[StartDT]) AS StartDTDayOfWeek, Duration,IIf(StartDTDayOfWeek=1 Or StartDTDayOfWeek=7,Duration,0) ASWeekendSeconds,FROM dbo_w_HR_Call_LogWHERE WinsID<>'0'

SSIS And Time With Milliseconds

May 22, 2007

I've been working on a project to ensure that accross our entire data warehouse everything is at the same accuracy level as far as time - migrating everything to use the full hh:mis.mmm. Some places were using hh:mis:mmm (colon instead of decimal point) and many places not using milliseconds.



The SQL server portion went essentially without issue - however SSIS is not cooperating. For example I have data I am importing from a file that is in format: hh:mis (no milliseconds) that I need to compare to data from SQL (now containing full milliseconds) - matching on time ranges. Previously this was done by converting both to the "database time" datatype in SSIS and comparing. Now when converting the cTime to database time SSIS fails and complains "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data".



I don't want to lop off the milliseconds becuase that could create rounding errors.



I don't like it but the only option I can think of is keeping everything in string and comparing the strings... then I run into the issue of making sure to convert all sources of data into the exact same hh:mis:mmm format in text.



Is there an easier way? I know some people use "milliseconds since midnight" and so forth but that would require major reworking of the data warehouse and many packages.

Reporting Services :: Convert Milliseconds To HH:MM:SS

Aug 9, 2006

I am writing a report that Queries a SQL DB using 'SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio'. I have a field in the DB called duration and it is in milliseconds. I am trying to find an easy way to convert the format from Milliseconds to HH:MM:SS.Nearest I can get is the following for the field:

=Int( ((Fields! DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60) & ":" & Int(((((Fields!DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60) - Int(((Fields!DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60)) * 60)

The output is in HH:MM. One issue with this is if the MM is say :03, it prints as :3. I lose the leading 0 so 9:03 (9hrs and 3 minutes) prints as 9:3. Where as 9:30 (9 hrs and 30 minutes) prints as 9:30 as it should.

SQL Server 2000 And Milliseconds (datetime Data Type)

Jan 18, 2007

I'm running into a constant issue of SQL Server modifying themillisecond part of a timestamp insert from another application. Theapplication inserts timestamp which includes a millisecond portion as astring (varchar). But when an SQL Server moves this data to anothertable (for reporting), the string is inserted in a datetime field, themillisecond field invariably changes by 1-2 milliseconds for everysingle data point inserted. Given the time critical nature of this data(to a millisecond), its almost impossible to avoid this other than toleave the data as string type. But this drives the analytical reportingfolks wild as report queries based on time criteria are getting messedup. Any ideas how to force SQL Server not to mess around with themillisecond value? Does this problem exist with SQL Server 2005 as well?

SQL M.P.s - 1 Day = 24 Hours??? Or 24 - 48 Hours???

Jun 28, 2001

We have a few Servers that have space issues that need full DB Backups every day. As a result, we have to carefully watch how many DB Backup files we keep on the Server. On the Maintenance Plan, if I set the 'Delete files older than:' to '1' 'Day', will this delete anything over 24 hours old? What I have noticed, is that it tends to delete on Tuesday anything that was created on Sunday, but not Monday. Therefore, I am assuming that instead of '1 Day' being 24 hours, it is anything less than 47 hours and 59 minutes...

Is my assumption correct or do I need to look at something else. Thanks!

sysjobservers.last_run_time, 8) AS LastRunTime, GETDATE() AS CurrentDateTime
FROM sysjobs LEFT OUTER JOIN
sysjobservers ON sysjobs.job_id = sysjobservers.job_id
WHERE (sysjobservers.last_run_outcome = 0) AND (CONVERT(varchar(8), sysjobservers.last_run_date, 112) >= DATEADD(day, - 1, GETDATE()))

I am wanting a similar solution, I need to convert an "int" to a time format, when I use this where ">= DATEADD(minute, - 720, GETDATE())" for the last_run_time I get this error:

Syntax error converting datetime from character string.

8 Hours To Add A Bit Column

Jul 1, 2004

I ran the following:

ALTER TABLE Recipients ADD Obscene BIT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0


On a table with 80 million records. It's been running for 8 hours and counting now. This is ridiculous. No one else is using this server.

Server configuration:
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition with SP3a
2 GB RAM
3.0 GHz P4 with hyperthreading
SCSI RAID

Any ideas why this is taking so long? Can I find out what it's doing? Is there anything I can do to make it go faster?
