How do we convert both of them into a single SQL DateTime field such as "2015-07-16 01:23:45.000" so that it can be used in a join restricting to a date time in a different SQL File that properly has the DateTime in it?
This works well for converting the transDate Part in the select statement:
  dbo.IntegerToDate(at.transDate) as transDate
  * That returns: "2015-07-16 00:00:00.000"
* The resulting data must work directly in a Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Query using either using the "on" statement or part of the "where" clause. In other words, NOT as a stored procedure!
Also must be able to be used as a date difference calculation when comparing the 2 files Within say + or - 5 seconds.
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.
1087912290 1087912327
I'd like to know how to convert it datetime format.
I am querying DB2 from SSRS. I get an interger back that represents a time like this: HHMMSS (The data type in DB2 is an integer.) I would like to make this representation of the time display a little more friendly. Does anyone have a good idea on how I can change the query or SSRS format to display semi-colons to break up the hours, minutes and seconds? Also, the other issue is that since I don't get leading zeros back....they probably need to be added to this value if the value is not a full 6 characters.
I have checked the forums but couldnt find exact term. I have written tsql statement but I dont know how to use that in SSIS this is a update statement in oledb command component... I wanna get integer like YYYYMMDD ( 20080325)
In VBA, CLng(Now) will return the integer portion of a date CLng(Now) returns 41928, CDate(41928) then returns 10/16/2014. Is there something equivalent in SQL Server that will allow me to convert an integer value to a date?
In short, how can I convert a 100 year date to Gregorian (any format)?
The sp "up_GetConfigurableDayInterval", will return number of days to add the the current date time. But print getdate() + @Id , is not producing the updated result.But when ever i have replaced the variable "@Id" with a value, Say "5", it is producing the expected result.I have also tested the above code by the following:-
create table Temp(value datetime); insert into Temp values(getdate() + @Id); select * from Temp
As a DBA, I am working on a project where an ETL process(SSIS) takes a long time to aggregate and process the raw data.
I figured out few things where the package selects the data from my biggest 200 GB unpartitioned table which has a datekey column but the package converts its each row to an integer value leading to massive scans and high CPU.
Example: the package passed two values 20140714 and 4 which means it wants to grab data from my biggest table which belongs between 20140714 04:00:00 and 20140714 05:00:00.
It leads to massive implicit conversions and I am trying to change this.
To minimize the number of changes, what I am trying to do is to convert 20140714 and 4 to a datetime format variable.
Select Convert(DATETIME, LEFT(20170714, 8)) which gives me a date value but I am stuck at appending time(HH:00:00) to it.
When I configure my SQL server datasource, what SQL statement can I use to convert a source field in a legacy DB2 database in 'mmddyy' format to a datetime field so that I can query by date on this field?
I am trying to create a whole number DAX calculated column that is derived from a date column. Basically it gets the date from the source data column and outputs it as an integer in the YYYYMMDD format.So 01/OCT/2015 would become --> 20151001...I've been fidgeting with DAX but my problem is that I keep missing the leading zeroes for months and days. So 01/March/2015 becomes 201531 which is not what I want (I need 20150301 in this case).
I want to convert a datetime type into and speciically formatted time:the table contains this:1899-12-30 10:00:00.000I want to reformat it to appear like this:10:00 AM I want to do this with SQL using a CONVERT of something along that line.I've been able to find all kinds of date and date/time formats, but not time alone in the above format.And suggestions?TIA</chaz>
Trying to write the most effective UDF to convert INT to Datetime. We have a column from a table on AS400 that is a INT type. Some are 4, 5, 6 ,7 digits. I have the 4 digits right. I need to fix it for 5 and 6 digits.
ALTER FUNCTION IntegerToDatetime (@int INT) RETURNS DATETIME AS BEGIN DECLARE @IntegerToDatetime int DECLARE @time DATETIME SET @time = '2001-01-01' SET @IntegerToDatetime = CASE WHEN LEN(@int) = 7 THEN '20' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),2,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),4,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(7)),6,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 6 THEN '19' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),1,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),3,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(6)),5,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 5 THEN '200' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),1,1) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),2,2) AS int) + '-' + CAST(SUBSTRING(CAST(@int AS CHAR(5)),4,2) AS int) WHEN LEN(@int) = 4 THEN cast(@time AS INT)
I was just told that it is better to convert all datetime values to integers for performance reasons. Is this generally true? I am working with time series data so datetime values hold important information.
Hi All I'm getting an error that says that this can't be converted to an integer. Here is the line that gets the error. dt = ((DataView)(EventDataSource1.Select(dssa))).ToTable() I have also tried. dt = (DataView)(EventDataSource1.Select(dssa); I am programming in VB here is teh rest of my code. Dim EventDataSource1 As New SqlDataSource()EventDataSource1.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ASPNETDBConnectionString").ToStringDim dssa As New DataSourceSelectArguments()Dim EventID As String = ""Dim DataView = ""Dim dt As New Data.DataTableDim conn As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ASPNETDBConnectionString").ToString())Dim cmd As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("SELECT EventID FROM Event WHERE ([StartDate] = @StartDate)", conn)EventDataSource1.SelectCommand = ("SELECT EventID FROM Event WHERE ([StartDate] = @StartDate)")conn.Open()dt = ((DataView)(EventDataSource1.Select(dssa))).ToTable()EventID = dt.Rows(0)(0).ToString()EventDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add("@StartDate",StartDate)EventID = cmd.ExecuteScalar()
I have the following stored procedure for creating a transaction record and after inserting the record, the transaction id is returned.-----------------------------------------------------DECLARE @TransactionID int <------ INSERT statement (after inserting the record, select the identity ID) ---------> Select @TransactionID = @@Identity RETURN------------------------------------------------------...Dim transactionID As Integerconnection.Open()Dim reader As SqlDataReaderreader = command.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)Dim p3 As New SqlParameter("@TransactionID", SqlDbType.Int)p3.Direction = ParameterDirection.OutputtransactionID = Convert.ToInt16(p3.Value)connection.Close()...I wanna retrieve the transactionID of the newly inserted record so that I can use it in my next step of inserting a new record to another table which has reference to the transactionID as a foreign key. However, I encountered error and suspect that it is due to the conversion of the output to Integer as it worked when I tested using dummy Integers.I tried many different ways of conversion but couldn't resolve the error. Could anyone help?
Hi folks, I'm trying to import data from a text file (UnicodeData.txt) into an SQL table. Some of the fields are unicode values (16 bits) expressed as four hexidecimal digits. I've succeeded in importing the data as character strings, but I have not found a way to convert them into numbers. (They could be stored as int or nchar.) I've tried convert(binary/int/whatever, string); E.g. select convert(int, '0x1111') from import_unicode gives the error Syntax error converting the varchar value '0x1111' to a column of data type int.
I could write code to strip off one character at a time, convert the hex digit to a decimal value, shift left, etc., but I find it hard to believe that's the best way.
Any help is appreciated. Please email answer to lars_huttar@sil.org as I don't read this board.

In a table, I store an integer to represent a day of the week (1 = sunday ) and then in procedures, compare that to datepart(dw, getdate()) to do alternative tasks on certain days.
If I have the number 1, is there a built in function to convert that to sunday or should one just write a function to do just that?

I want to convert a string into an interger so that my parameter can get one value, and have a seperate matrix list the value before the value selected.
My parameter is year. The user picks the year. And i want the crashcounts for the year displayed in the matrix. Then i have another matrix with a dataset similiar. I want this seperate Matrix/Dataset to display the previous year.
SO if the user selects 2004 from the dropdown. 2004 is displayed in the first matrix, and 2003 is displayed in the second matrix. The year attribute is in string format, and i cant change it in the cube. So i was told it could be converted in reporting services. with this
