Converting A Date In The Form Of A String To A Datetime Format

Sep 29, 2006

Hi,

I'm writing some SQL and want to convert the following expression into a date format in the SELECT list:

'01/'&Month(OrderDate)&'/'&Year(OrderDate)

Basically, I want to look at each order date, convert that date to the first of that month and GROUP BY this expression.

There is a CONVERT function, but I'm new to all this and can't seem to get it to work.

Any help would be gratefully received!

Cheers!

Converting Date To Other Format?

Jun 24, 2013

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,

[code]....

Converting Bespoke Date Format

May 7, 2008



I've got a source database that has a lot of tables with the dates in a proprietary decimal format. I need to read the tables in and place in a SQL database in a proper date format. In the past this has been done in a user defined SQL Server function that just takes in the decimal, and returns a date.

I can't see how I would run this on a column in SSIS. How would I go about it? I've tried accessing the function from straight SQL in various components, and in a named query, but none seem to work.

Thx

SQL Server 2008 :: Date Format Not Converting To Dd / Mm / Yy

Sep 1, 2015

I have a date field stored in a character type field ( this field is a spare one in an ERP package )I am trying to validate and convert to a date format using the following;

[code="CASE WHEN isdate( arc.UserField1 )= 1 then
CAST( arc.UserField1 as DateTime )
ELSE
CAST( '01/01/1900' as Datetime )
END"] [/code]

The results are ;

Date Result
29/09/08 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000
09/06/15 2015-09-06 00:00:00.000
18/03/13 1900-01-01 00:00:00.000
09/10/14 2014-09-10 00:00:00.000

as you can see - the date 29/09/08 is a valid UK date format - however it fails the validation. 09/06/15 converts to 6th September 2015 ( mm/dd/yy ) format...What do I need to do to force this to identify as dd/mm/yy date format ?

Convert String To Date Independent Of Date Format

Feb 15, 2008

Hi,

I Have this simple convertion in a Script component


Dts.Variables("dateOfProcess").Value = CDate(lineMCF.Substring(30, 2) + "/" + lineMCF.Substring(28, 2) + "/" + lineMCF.Substring(24, 4))



this works fin in my development environment which has a spanish version of SQL Server and uses "DD/MM/YYYY" as date format.

but the production environment has an english version of SQL Server and "MM/DD/YYYY" date format, so the package crashes in this server.


How do I convert the string to date not depending on the SQL server language.

thanks.

Converting String To Date In SSIS

Jan 29, 2007

I am very new to SSIS though I have written hundreds of SQL 2000 dts' with all kinds of active scripts doing all kinds of things. I am now trying to convert them to SSIS and since scripts don't come through the migrator I am doing them by hand once again. I have the package created, but one of the input fields on the text file is YYYYMMDD , but the database field it is going into is a datetime so I need to convert it to a valid date format so that the conversion will take place. I tried data conversion task but that doesn't work, now I'm assuming I need to use the derived column, but not sure and don't have a clue how to use that, can anyone help? Thanks bostonrose

Converting String Parameter Values To Date

Mar 11, 2008



Hi,

I have a calendar parameter in one of my reports. The values of the calendar are of the form 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mms'. And they are string values.

Now when I generate the report I have a textbox that takes the parameter label (e.g., parameter!calendar.label). However, I would like to format (or trim) the label as just 'yyyy-mm-dd'. Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried to change the parameter value format to datetime but this just throws an invalid datatype error...

cheers,
Al

Converting Date From String To Datetime In Data Transfer Task

Jul 13, 2006

The source is a flat file with a column where dates are stored as: 07/12/2006 11:35am. In some cases the column is blank.

I need to import this into a table with a datetime column. In the data flow task, I get the error that conversion b/w String and DB_Timestamp is not allowed. First question is why does SSIS think its a DB_Timestamp column? Shouldnt it be DB_Date or DB_Time. Anyway, when I add a Data Conversion Task in the Data Flow, and cast to the source column to either DB_TimeStamp, DB_Date or DB_Time I get an error.

Please help. What am I doing wrong.

SQL Server 2008 :: Get Date Format From String?

May 28, 2015

How can we identify the Date Format from a String in SQL Server.

I might get an input from external source as "MM-DD-YYYY" or "DD-MM-YYYY" or "YYYY-MM-DD" or "YYYY-DD-MM", all i have to do is return the same with Current Date in the same format as Input.

Ex :

1. "02-20-2013" -> "05-28-2015"
2. "2014-04-19" -> "2015-05-28"

Any method to identify the DateFormat then it would have made the job very easy.

Transact SQL :: Error - Conversion Failed When Converting Date And / Or Time From Character String

Nov 16, 2015

I've imported a CSV file into a table in SQL Server 2012. It's a large file, 140,000+ rows, so I couldn't covert it to Excel first to preserve the date format due to Excel's row limit. In the CSV file, there were 3 column with date data in "31-Aug-09" format, and the import automatically transformed these in "31AUG09" format (varchar(50)) in SQL Server.  Now I need to convert these 3 columns from varchar to datetime so I could work with them in date format.

I've tried several things,e.g,

select
convert(datetime,
right(admdate,4)+left(admdate,2)+substring(admdate,3,3))

or

select
convert(datetime,
substring(admdate,6,4)+substring(admdate,1,2)+substring(admdate,3,3))

but keep getting the same error message (Msg 241) "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string".

Im working with a breaking system and I wont to convert the (FROM) datetime column to accept just time like (4:00:00 AM) without the date (7/23/2004) but it doesn’t have column format like the access ??
I found something in the SQL help :

How to convert the format of a Date Time String transformation (Enterprise Manager)
To convert the format of a Date Time String transformation
1.On the Transformations tab of the Transform Data Task Properties or Data Driven Query Task Properties dialog box, click the Source column containing the date or time to be modified, and then click the Destination column where you want the modified string to be placed.
2.Do one of the following:
•If there is a mapping arrow connecting the two columns, click Delete, and then click New.
•If there is no mapping arrow, click New.
3.In the Create New Transformation dialog box, click DateTime String.
4.Click the General tab, and then click Properties.
5.In the Date Format list, select the format you want.
6.Click Naming to display the Calendar Names dialog box, where you can select long or short day or month names and the A.M. and P.M. designators you want.
7.In the Language list, select the language you want, and then click Set Language Defaults.
But unfortunately I didn't find the "Transformations tab" I look a lot in the SQL Enterprise Manager

Do anybody work with the Transformations or at least know where is it please ???

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Conversion Failed When Converting Character String To Small Date-time Data Type
