How can I check if the database is currently being backed up?
Seems like that should be a property, but it's not an attribute of the DATABASEPROPERTY function.
Thanks
Hi ,I have a file presumably backup of a User database from a SQLServer(2k) database. I want to load/restore that in a local SQL Serverto be able to see the table , views , etc present in the database.How do I do that ?Thanks,Arijit
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there was another method to determine when a database was last backed up without using the backup history tables in msdb? whether using DBCC DBINFO, DBCC PAGE on a specific database page...etc.
Also, when restoring a database, is there a trace flag you can use to force restore details to be written to the error log?
Hello All,The setting is SQL server 7, on Windows NT.If the distributor can not access the log on the publisher database ( butsubscribers are not deleted yet), will the full backup of the publisherdatabase truncate the transaction log? My guess is, it will not truncate thelog.Can any one confirm please?Thanks,Mokles

I'm trying to extract some data from a table in oracle. The oracle table stores date and time seperately in 2 different columns. I need to merge these two columns and import to sql server database.
I'm struggling with this for a quite a while and I'm not able to get it working.
I tried the oracle query something like this,
SELECT
(TO_CHAR(ASOFDATE,'YYYYMMDD')||' '||TO_CHAR(ASOFTIME,'HH24:MM : SS')||':000') AS ASOFDATE
FROM TBLA
this gives me an output of 20070511 23:06:30:000
the space in MM : SS is intentional here, since without that space it appread as smiley
I'm trying to map this to datetime field in sql server 2005. It keeps failing with this error
The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data
I'm struck with error for hours now. Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks
Hi, I m using ASP.NET with C#. I m having one field which should store the datetime of the system. The datetime should be automatically stored for that entry when the user submits that record on the click event.Then it should display the date time on the gridview from database.I m using sqlserver 2005 and i have created the stored procedure for the insert command.This
is the sample sp what should be written here to insert system date time
automatically when the user submits the asp.net form ?Is there any code for writing directly in stored procedure or asp.net coding page... ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[StoredProcedure1]@salesid INT OUTPUT,@salesdate datetime,@customername varchar(20)ASBEGINSET NOCOUNT ONBEGIN INSERT INTO sales (customername) VALUES (@customername) SELECT @companyid = SCOPE_IDENTITY()END SET NOCOUNT OFFEND Thanxs in advance...

I am new to sql database programming. developing an application using C# and sql server 2005. i am having problems with date insertion to database. I use datatimepicker control to get date input. here is my code. in table i use datetime column type.
strSQL = "Insert Into TB1 (PPT_No,Reference_No,Application_Date,Receipt_No,Citizenship,Purpose_Visit,Entry_Type,Visa_Category,Airline,Vessel_No,Date_Arrival,
Date_Departs,Collected_Date,Remarks) Values('" +txtPPT_No.Text+ "'," +application_Date.Value+ ",'" +txtRecieptNo.Text+ "','" +cmbcitizenship.Text+ "','"
+txtpurpose.Text+ "','" +cmbentry.Text+ "','" +cmbcategory.Text+ "','" +cmbAirLine.Text+ "','" +txtvesel.Text+
"'," +arrivalDate.Value+ ",'" +departsDate.Value+ ",'" +txtrefference_No.Text+ "'," +collected_Date.Value+ ",'" +txtremarks.Text+ "'";
all date fields i used datetimepicker control. where i went wrong?.
Error : "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value."
I'm looking for a way of taking a query which returns a set of date time fields (probable maximum of 20 rows) and looping through each value to see if it exists in a separate table.
E.g.
Query 1
Select ID, Person, ProposedEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyOptions
where person = 'me'
Table
Select Person, ExistingEvent, DayField, TimeField
from MyTimetable
where person ='me'
Loop through Query 1 and if it finds ANY matching Dayfield AND Timefield in Query/Table 2, return the ProposedEvent (just as a message, the loop could stop there), if no match a message saying all is fine can proceed to process form blah blah.
I'm essentially wanting somebody to select a bunch of events in a form, query 1 then finds all the days and times those events happen and check that none of them exist in the MyTimetable table.
I need an SQL string that inserts the current date into a database.
So far I have tried:
SQL = "INSERT INTO X (START_DATE) VALUES ('" & Date.Now & "')"
mycomm = New SqlCommand(sql, myconn)
mycomm.ExecuteNonQuery()
However, there is a problem with the SQL command. The problem is related to the date. Is there a way of programatically inserting the current date/time into the SQL database? Language used is VB.
With regards to time zones, daylight savings, and web users, is there a best practice for storing date & time information in a database?
For example, my databases are hosted in Time Zone A, but the web users are in Time Zone B. Then, when I create a rss feed (which is displayed in GMT), I add a third time zone into the mix for the same data. To date (no pun intended), I have been entering the date/time data in the time zone of the database server (Time Zone A), and then converting it using an application setting in the web.config file (i.e. TimeZoneBOffset = -1, GMTOffSet = -5). In other words, each time I display a date I calculate what it should be using the time-zone offset in the web.config. This also enables me to account for changes in day light savings, etc.
My concerns are three fold: 1. What if I move the database to another server and the time zone changes? 2. Right now the users are in only 1 time zone. If I expand it to several then the offset will have to be by users, which is do-able, but something I haven't had experience with in the past. 3. It is likely more efficient to calculate the time zone once on input into the DB, rather than in each use like I'm doing now. What time zone baseline for insert into the db should I use?
Thanks in advance for your help!
PS My application is primarily looking at 'smalldatetime' data - down to the 'minute' level.

I have two fields DSRHADTI which is an isodate and DSRHTIME which is 8 char time field in format 10.31.00. I want to take both these fields and put them into a field that is database timestamp so I have converted DSRHDATI to 10 character field. I am then trying to use substring to put both into 18 character field using derived column transformation editor. but it does not like the below. It's red syntax error what am I missing.
(SUBSTRING(Copy of DSRHDATI,1,4) +' /' + SUBSTRING( Copy of DSRHDATI,6,2) + '/ ' + SUBSTRING(Copy of DSRHDATI,9,2)) + SUBSTRING(DSRHTIME,1,2) + '.' + SUBSTRING(DSRHTIME,4,2) + '.' + SUBSTRING(DSRHTIME,7,2)
One I get the above to work I plan on convert 18 char to datetimestamp.
Am I on the right track on how to do this?
Are there anyway I can check my last database reorg date and time using Tsql ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi There
We currently have the following scenario:
4 app servers with regional date and time settings of locale A.
1 database server with locale settings B.
What is happening is that timestamps are being generated on the app servers, these are then in a sql command which fails on the database server since the timestamp format is invalid.
It was suggested that we change the regional locale settings of the database server, but will this not have serious implications , for example every current timestamp format in the datbase will become invalid?
In a nutshell is it safe to change a database servers regional date time locale settings ? Or are there serious implications?
Thanx
I am trying to load previous days data at 3 am via a SSIS job.
The Date variable is initiated as DATEADD("dd",-1, GETDATE()) in the for loop.
Now, as this job runs at 3 am, and I set the variable as GETDATE() - 1, it excluded the data from 12 am to 3 am in the resultset as Date is set as YYYY-MM-DD 03:00:00:000 I need this to be set as YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00:000
How can i do this?
In SQL Server 2000:
How do I convert a Julian date to a Gregorian date?
How do I convert a Gregorian date to Julian?

I have the following
Column Name : [Converted Date]
Data Type : varchar(50)
When I try and do month around the [Converted Date] I get the following error message
“Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.”
My Query is
SELECT
month([Created Date])
FROM [FDMS_PartnerReporting].[Staging].[Salesforce_MarketingReporting]
SELECT * ,[Due]
FROM [Events]
Where Due >= getdate() +90
This returns the error: Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string
Why would this be? How to cast or convert this so that it will work?
Hi there.
I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE')
Can anyone out there help?
Please advise. Thanks.
Best.

Dear Expert!
A server with SQL 2005 sp2, Reporting Services and Sharepoint services (ver 3.0) (in integrated mode) gives an odd error. When viewing a Reporting Services report with a Date Time Picker, the date chosen is wrong. The preferred setting is Danish with the date format dd-mm-yyyy. The date picker shows the months in Danish but when selecting a date, and clicking on the Apply-button, the date reformats to US (mm-dd-yyyy).
Example:
When choosing 5th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows in the picker, 9th of May 2007.
When choosing 26th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows, again in US format, the RIGHT date but adds a timestamp 12:00 AM? in the end, making further enquiries to fail.
The report itself receives the right date and shows correctly. The only case it fails is, when the time stamp appears.
The server is a 32-bit one with 4 GB RAM. A testserver with identical collation on the Reportserver database cannot recreate the error. The site containing the reports has been set to Danish in the regional settings. To Reinstall is not an option.
The test report has no database connection whatsoever.
When setting the site to US, the timestamp wont appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards

Hello,
we need to track date/time of last update for each record in a table.
As we understand it, we can't use field type Timestamp as this type does
not use dates/times.
Is there any SQL function available which we can bind to a column or
do we really have to use triggers?

Hi
i have the following situation. in my database i have a datetime field (dd/mm/yy hh:mms) and i also have a field timezone.
the timezone field has values in minutes that i should add to my datetime field so i have the actual time.
afterwards i split the datetime into date and time.
the last part i can accomplish (CONVERT (varchar, datetime, 103) as DATEVALUE and CONVERT (varchar, DATETIME, 108) as TIMEVALUE).
could anybody tell me how i can add the timezone value (in minutes) to my datetime value ?
i do all the calculations in my datasource (sql).
Thanks

I want to display only the date part of a date field which contains both date & time information.
For example I have the value '2013-11-14 00:00:00.000' in my result set, and ideally I would like to show only '2013-11-14'.
I have looked up the datepart() command, however I can't work out how to return all parts of the date, rather than just the year, month, or day.
I have passed createdDate from UI to Stored procedure.createdDate field declared with DateTime.it is having value 2014-07-01.I need to fetch records from the database based upon the created field.but Create_TM in database having value Date with timestamp.so how would i change the createdfield in stored procedure.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ByDateRange]
@Feed VARCHAR(50),
@CreatedDate DATETIME
select * from Date_table where Create_TM = @CreatedDate
I have a table named "shift" and I need to setup my query to return only data where the field "startime" = today. The problem I am running into is the starttime field it laid out like "2005-12-29 14:00:00" with different time values. I need to ruturn everything that has todays date regardless of the time value. I tried using GetDate() but that is returning data for other days as well or just data before or after the current time. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is driving me crazy! Thanks, Garrett
View 7 Replies View RelatedHello,
We have a bunch of Audit tables that contain almost exact copies of the operations tables. The audit tables also include:
AuditID - the audit action (insert, modify - old, modify - new, deleted)
AuditDate - date and time of action
AuditUser - User who did it...
At the end of the day I need to know for any given record what it looked like at the beginning of the day and what it looks like at the end of the day. There could have been numerous changes to the record throughout the day, those records I am not interested in. Only the first record and the last record of a give day.
I am going to be doing a lot of MIN(AuditDate) and MAX(AuditDATE) and .. WHERE AuditDate BETWEEN '10/1/2007 00:00:00' AND '10/1/2007 11:59:59' ...
Question: Whats better for performance:
1. Separating out the date and time and doing a clusterd index on the date.
2. Keeping date and time in the same column and just use a normal index.
3. Better ideas?
Thanks,
Bradley
Hi all,
I have set up a maintenance plan to backup my databases but when I view the maintenance plan history the transaction log backup steps have a success tick but a message saying :
"Backup can not be performed on this database. This sub task is ignored"
I have looked in my backup directory and only see *.BAK files and no *.TRN.
The transaction logs are supposed to back up at 1AM and the databases at 2AM
All my databases being backed up have the truncate log on checkpoint option set. Is this best practise according to my backup schedule ?
Help !!!!

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a table in which a date value is stored as varchar.some of these values are stored ina dd/mm/yyyy format and other values are stored in a yyyy-mm-dd format..Now I wish to retrieve some data by querying between two dates.

select date_value
