I have three items which make up the primary key:
ProjectNumber, Hardware, Date
Problem: The Date is formatted with date and time, how can I add a record and use just the date?
Currently I use GetDate() in my stored proc.

Hi there,
We're going to use replication on our database. There are tables without any primary key.
Is a primary key necessary for replication?
I have also antoher question: We want to replicate the whole OLTP database (size 30 GB).
Is snapshot replication a suitable mechanisme for this? I thougt snapshot replication overwrites all of the data, not only changed data. Or should we use another replication method?
Thanks in advance,

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.
SELECT ltrim(str(datepart(yyyy,getdate()))) +'-'+
replicate('0',2-len(ltrim(str(datepart(mm,getdate())))))+ltrim(str (datepart(mm,getdate())))+'-' +replicate('0',2-len(ltrim(str(datepart(dd,getdate())))))
+ltrim(str(datepart(dd,getdate())))
This is how i am getting datepart of datetime.Is there any other way to get the date and also time seperately..
Thanks.
I use smalldatetime for a datetime and i just display the date part

Hi,
i am trying to write a query the pulls out a table which has date information stored as dd/mm/yyy but all i want is the month and the year.
So i tried
select datepart(mm, dtinsertdate)
from incident
which only gives me month and also used
select datepart(year,dtinsertdate) [year], datepart(month, dtinsertdate)[month],
Which works but i want both in the same column.
But when trying to get both mm, yyyy it looks like it only supports one datepart. Is there any way aroung this?
Many Thanks

Hi,
I think this is a simple question but I am just not sure how to do it right, as a newbie.
All I want to do is generate a report of company employees grouped by their date of hire.
SELECT DateOfHire, FirstName, LastName from Empls
ORDER BY DateOfHire
The only problem is that the DateOfHire displays as, e.g., '01/03/2004 12:00:00' which is not what I want. I SIMPLY WANT TO OMIT THE TIME PART but don't know quite how to say this. I tried several variations along this line but it causes scoping errors...
SELECT CONVERT(Varchar(10), DateOfHire, 101) AS DOHDateOnly, FirstName, LastName, State
FROM EMPL
GROUP BY DOHDateOnly
but this gives error
"The value expressions for the textbox ‘DateOfHire’ refers to the field ‘DOHDateOnly’. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope."
Which makes sense, but I don't know HOW to say the right thing to get what I want.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
i want to use the date part of the function getdate in my sql query.
the getdate function return the current date and time. i want only the date part.
how can i do it.
Ok, so I have a Select statement that looks like this:
Select * from FilteredOpportunity
where (OpportunityID LIKE @opportunityid)
and (Name LIKE @name)
and (CustomerIDName LIKE @customeridname)
and isNull(EstimatedCloseDate, '1900-01-01') LIKE @estimatedclosedate
and isNull(Description, '') LIKE @description
and isNull(AccountIdName, '') LIKE @AccountIDName
and isNull(ACCU_OppTypeName, '') LIKE @ACCU_OppTypeName
and isNull(SalesStageCodeName, '') LIKE @SalesStageCodeName
and isNull(ACCU_CustomerTypeName, '') LIKE @ACCU_CustomerTypeName
and (CreatedByName LIKE @CreatedByName)
and (CreatedOn LIKE @CreatedOn)
and isNull(ACCU_OppSourceName, '') LIKE @ACCU_OppSourceName
and (StateCodeName LIKE @StateCodeName)
and (StatusCodeName LIKE @StatusCodeName)
This chunk of code is used in an XML file which, once this XML is imported (using sharepoint by the way if you haven't noticed), I can then search through tables with different filters. Well, my date filter isn't working the same way as my other ones. I have a couple different date filters, but none of them work.
Before I ask my question, I only pass in one variable at a time through my code.... the rest of the variables get a default value passed to them if the user doesn't pass it. That value is simply '%'. Anyways, so the different ways a user can type in a date is by typing in the whole date, part of the date starting with the beginning of it, typing in the end of the date, or typing something within the date. For a string it's like 'Example', 'Exam%', '%ple', and '%amp% respectively. How do I accomplish this with a date?
Is there any other way which is more simpler(shorter) to get the datepart (I don't want the time part ) of Datetime than this ?Convert(nvarchar, DATEPART(dd,[Date]) ) + '/' + Convert(nvarchar,DATEPART(mm,[Date])) + '/' + Convert(nvarchar, DATEPART(yy,[Date])) As[Date]
View 1 Replies View RelatedNeed some help in getting the following.. (Looking for a Expression)
The date part of --- getdate() '+' '16:00:01'
Basically i am looking to get the records based on a DATETIME Column UPTO 4 PM Server that paricular day.
We have some seasonal products that we would like to turn on and off automatically on our website. To accomplish this, we've added StartDate and EndDate fields to the product table. See simplified table:
--------------Simple Table:--------------ID int identity (PK)Value varchar(50)StartDate datetimeEndDate datetime
Normally I could just do something like SELECT ID, Value FROM PRODUCTS WHERE StartDate <= @MyDate AND EndDate >= @MyDate
The catch is that we want to ignore the year part of the dates so that we don't have to go back through and update all the records every year. I'm pretty sure I've done this in the past, but I'm having a brain fart right now and can't remember how. One of the issues is that the start month could be > the end month (e.g. - October 15 - January 1). Using code in the application I could work around this (see below), but I would like to handle this in SQL if possible so I don't have to return more records than are needed and weed out the bad records.
'dtStart and dtEnd are Date Objects, StartDate and EndDate are strings containing the MM/DD partIf dtStart.CompareTo(dtEnd) > 0 And dtStart.CompareTo(myDate) < 0 Then dtEnd = Date.Parse(EndDate & "/" & (myDate.Year + 1))ElseIf dtStart.CompareTo(dtEnd) > 0 And dtStart.CompareTo(objDate) > 0 Then dtStart = Date.Parse(StartDate & "/" & (myDate.Year - 1))End If
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,Sam
I would like to know the best way of returning just the Date part (dd/mm/yyyy) of a DateTime field using T-SQL. I know that some methods mean that you lose the indexing if the field is indexed. Which is the best way to do this in T-SQL whilst preserving the indexing? I'm using SQL Server 2005.

I have a DB table which records the datetime each time a viewer changes TV channel. The report is a summary by user of each channel change By Day Part with Each Date
I can do this easily enough by just grouping on Date but now require another level of detail.
I have a datetime user inputted parameter on a report. I want to display it on the report without the time part.
ie. it displays
4/8/2007 12:00:00 AM
I want just to display the date part
4/8/2007
Is this possible?
I'm trying to find if any part of a date range in my table between orig_start_rent and stop_rent falls within a period I specify in two variables: startPeriod and endPeriod
For example if I specify 2013-11-01 as startPeriod and 2013-11-30 as endPeriod, then if any part of the date range between orig_start_rent and stop_rent(stop-rent can be null if hire is open) falls within that period, I want that to be picked up and assigned the value of 1 in my case statement for OnHire. My code is not picking everything up however - using the example above, a record with orig_start_rent of 2013-05-23 and stop_rent of 2013-11-18 is being assigned 0 when it should be 1. My code here:
declare @startPeriod as smalldatetime
declare @endPeriod as smalldatetime
set @startPeriod = '2013-11-01'
set @endPeriod = '2013-11-30';
select dticket, orig_start_rent, stop_rent, case when orig_start_rent >= @startPeriod and orig_start_rent <= @endPeriod then 1 when orig_start_rent < @endPeriod and stop_rent is null then 1 else 0 end [OnHire] from deltickitem
from this, circdate being a datetime field:SQLQuery = "select distinct circdate from circdata order by circdate"I need the distinct date portion excluding the time part.this has come about when I discoveredI am inserting and updating some datetime values with the same value,but for some reason, the values are always off by a few seconds. I seta variable called SetNow assigned to NOW and then set the datetimefields to this SetNow variable. Then when I collect the distinct datetime I am assuming they will have the same values recorded incircdate, but no, they are off by several seconds. Makes no sense to meat all. I tried renaming the variable several times but it makes nodifference at all.any help appreciated, thanks.

I'm working on a simple APP where I store the date of a transaction. I use in my Stored Procedure the getdate() as the default (and untouchable) value for the transaction date

Is there a way to extract the date part (11/27/2012) of a datetime/time stamp column (11/27/2012 00:00:00.000) and keep it in a date format?
The code i have below extracts the date part of a timestamp column and converts it to a char field. This becomes a problem when I joing the resultant table with a SAS dataset which contains the same column but is in a date format. The join process generates an error saying the column is in different formats.
convert(char(15), process_date,112) as process_dt
I have SSRS 2005 SP2 configured to work in Sharepoint integration. Everything works fine except that I am not able to programmatically change any property of report viewer web part (instance) that I have added on on home page of my sharepoint site.
I can do same thing via sharepoint UI but not through program. When my programs runs it fetches all web parts been added on home page, then I need to iterate through each one and find report viewer web part.
While iterating, as soon as I arrive to report viewer web part it is named as "Error web part" with error message as
"Windows SharePoint Services cannot deserialize the Web Part. Check the format of the properties and try again"
If someone has a solution, please respond at your earlist.

I have a table with a column named measurement decimal(18,1). If the value is 2.0, I want the stored proc to return 2 but if the value is 2.5 I want the stored proc to return 2.5. So if the value after the decimal point is 0, I only want the stored proc to return the integer portion. Is there a sql function that I can use to determine what the fraction part of the decimal value is? In c#, I can use
dr["measurement "].ToString().Split(".".ToCharArray())[1] to see what the value after the decimal is.
I have made the following Scalar-valued function:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[TimeCalc]
(
@OriginalTime AS INTEGER
, @TenthsOrHundredths AS INTEGER -- code 2: 1/10, code 4: 1/100
)
RETURNS NVARCHAR(8)
[Code] ....
What it does is convert numbers to times
E.g.: 81230 gets divided by 10 (times in seconds: 8123). This 1 1 full minute, and the remainder = 2123 making it 1.21.23 mins)
So far so good (function works perfectly)
My question: sometimes times are in 1/100 (like above sample), sometimes in 1/10.
This means that, e.g. with a time like 3.23.40 the last zero must be deleted.
My thoughts are to use the results from the Return Case part, and as the code = 4: leave it as it is,
is the code 2 the use LEFT(... result Return Case ..., Len(..result Return Case.. - 1))
There are 5 codes: 0 1 2 3 and 4

What different are there between connectionString (Part 1) and connectionString (Part 2) in web.config
The CCWW is my PC's name, normally I can connect to the database ASPNETDB.MDF correctly either Part 1 or Part 2 in a web page,After I open Database Explorer panel and browse ASPNETDB.MDF, I can't connect to database using Part 2 when I open a webpage in Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition,but I can correctly open a webpage using Part 1 after I open Database Explorer panel.
What different are there between connectionString (Part 1) and connectionString (Part 2) in web.config?
I guess while I use Part 1 to connect, maybe it will be cancel exclusive method of the database ASPNETDB.MDF first, but when I connect to database using Part 2, maybe two programms both Part 2 and Database Explorer visit ASPNETDB.MDF at the same time!

Hi,
I have recently been looking at a database and wondered if anyone can tell me what the advantages are supporting a unique collumn, which can essentially be seen as the primary key, with an identity seed integer primary key.
For example:
id [unique integer auto incremented primary key - not null],
ClientCode [unique index varchar - not null],
name [varchar null],
surname [varchar null]
isn't it just better to use ClientCode as the primary key straight of because when one references the above table, it can be done easier with the ClientCode since you dont have to do a lookup on the ClientCode everytime.
Regards
Mike
