I installed SQL SP2 and now the datepicker on the reporting server is formatting the dates in US format regardless of what regional settings are stored on the client.
The version of sql server 2005 is..
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3054.00 (Intel X86) Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
Hello. I've just created a new report and I added a prameter of type "DateTime". I didn't even used it in the query.

Oki, I am a newbie so you got to bare with me here.
I am trying to develop a software where I have to input the datetime picker control. What this datetime picker control should allow user is to pick a date and show the data related to that specific date into the datagrid.
For Example.
Database table - Error Codes has a record feild "error_date". When I run the program it shouldn't show anything on the datagrid. I should be choosing the date from the dtp and then click search and it should show me the data onto the datagrid.
Currently the table shows fine on a datagrid when I run the program, it shows the whole list of data into the datagrid but because there is alot of data in it, it takes me atleast 30mins to find something on it. All I want is the data to be filtered by the date and show it to the datagrid.
Hi,I have a table adapter that I am using to call a stored procedure on a SQL server database to insert a record.Everything works ok, except I cannot figure out how to pass a null value to a DateTime field. In my SQL server database, the column allow nulls. In my typed dataset, the column is set to allow nulls.When I try to run the insert procedure with a null value: ListTableAdapter da = new ListTableAdapter(); da.InsertList(System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime.Null, Name); I get this error: Error 14 Argument '1': cannot convert from 'System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime' to 'System.DateTime?I've also tried passing it DBNull.Value, but I get an exception with that too.Can anyone steer me in the right direction with this?
I created a report with two parameters, StartDate and EndDate.
They are specified as datetime type.
When I went to the Preview tab, there were date pickers for both values.
After a week or so of using the report, I thought it would be better if I gave the parameters default values. I spent some time reading what others had done in this forum and used the following as the expressions for the parameters:
Updated SQL 2005 to SP2 and Reporting Services Date Picker now has dates defaulting to US format (MM/DD/YYYY) instead of our previous English-Australian (DD/MM/YYYY). Both the clients and server are set to English Australian regional settings in the O/S and the reports are composed for English Australian language. Reports have correct format in Visual Studio development and re-deploying them had no effect. Everything was fine under SP1 - not sure what is going on. Any ideas???
hi. i have created a database with a table called customer. hav a field which displays the date. how can i add a query on the date picker so that when i choose a date on the calendar i can view the customers details. in other display the record by choosing a particular date.
Im sure we have all seen this error before: "The value for the report parameter XXX is not valid for its type"
I have a report (RS 2005) that has 2 date parameters, "start" and "end".
My SQL in not very complicated at all, I have a simple WHERE date between @start and @end
But when I go to view the report in VS2005, I get the above error.
I am yet to find a decent fix for this, what is going on? the date I am trying is: "26/02/2007" now, obviously its trying to us the en-US formatting, but im in Australia, so I want en-AU.
I have changed my report Language setting to be en-AU, my local settings in Region Setting is English (Australia). (BTW, I had to change the Language setting in my report through the XML, is there a better way to do this?)
How do I fix this?? I have searched an searched but no-one seems to be able to give a clear answer as to what is going on....
I read a lot of posts in this forum, but none of them provide a solution.
Probably it is related to SP2 as many report, I have SP2 as well...
A funny situation: I have a report parameter @date, datatype datetime, so I can use the datepicker control.
But, even when not using this @date parameter in my dataset, I still get the error:
The value provided for the report parameter 'date' is not valid for its type. (rsReportParameterTypeMismatch)
Of course it has to do with regional settings and languages etc... But at my international client's site, workstations are in any regional setting and servers are in en-US, nothing I can do about that.
Come'on Microsoft, don't tell us this datePicker is only for the US market?
Why is it that when you want to add a user or a group to SSRS through either Management Studio or the Reports Manager, you have no people picker to lookup into Active Directory.
You can pull up AD users and computers in MMC and do a search and then put their account name in - but that seems like a huge pain.
Am I missing something here - or did Microsoft miss something really big here.
I have a date range parameters in my report, and when viewing it using IE and Firefox ReportViewer, the date picker is there. But when I tried running it using Chrome, the date picker was missing. I tried double click on the date field itself but nothing.
My Chrome version is 17.0.963.79 m. I tried allowing the pop-up blocker but still nothing.
I defined my input parameter as date/time but it doesn't have a time picker where we can accept user input.
The calendar is great but time picker is missing.
Is there any add-in or tweaks I can use to get that feature ?
The alternative solution which uses drop down with some preset values are not feasible for me. All I need is just the time picker similar to adjust time in Windows.
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 €œ12:00 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 won€™t appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
I am using reporting services, when I go to view my report in Report Manager (web browser is IE7), I choose a date from a date picker control, and the date that populates the date field is in US format mm/dd/yyyy, however in my regional settings, although I have English(United States) I have altered my short date format to be dd/mm/yyyy.
Currently my report will display an error saying the date is an invalid format if I pick a date that violates the mm/dd/yyyy format. I want it to display the date format that I have defined in my regional settings, without modifying the 'Language Preference' settings for IE.
The report properties has =User!Language for the 'Language' property.
Hi, I tried to create parameters in my report. I need one date picker. So i select data type as datetime. in default values i selected as non-queried and in date time functions i selected =Today. But am unable to set current date. Please help me to solve it.
Have seen other questions here about modifying date pickers supplied by reports created in BIDS. The answer is usually NO. But this does not involve a format change, simply want to limit say to a specific year. Any ideas?
Hi, I'm inserting a datetime values into sql server 2000 from c#
SQL server table details Table nameate_test columnname datatype No int date_t DateTime
C# coding SqlConnection connectionToDatabase = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=testdb;Integrated Security=SSPI"); connectionToDatabase.Open(); DataTable dt1 = new DataTable(); dt1.Columns.Add("no",typeof(System.Int16)); dt1.Columns.Add("date_t", typeof(System.DateTime)); DataRow dr = dt1.NewRow(); dr["no"] = 1; dr["date_t"] = DateTime.Now; dt1.Rows.Add(dr); for(int i=0;i<dt1.Rows.Count;i++) { string str=dt1.Rows["no"].ToString(); DateTime dt=(DateTime)dt1.Rows["date_t"]; string insertQuery = "insert into date_test values(" + str + ",'" + dt + "')"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, connectionToDatabase); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); MessageBox.Show("saved"); } When I run the above code, data is inserted into the table The value in the date_t column is 2007-07-09 22:10:11 000.The milliseconds value is always 000 only.I need the millisecond values also in date_t column. Is there any conversion needed for millisecond values?
Hi all, having a little problem with saving dates to sql databaseI've got the CreatedOn field in the table set to datetime type, but every time i try and run it i get an error kicked up Error "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.The statement has been terminated."I've tried researching it but not been able to find something similar. Heres the code: DateTime createOn = DateTime.Now;string sSQLStatement = "INSERT INTO Index (Name, Description, Creator,CreatedOn) values ('" + name + "','" + description + "','" + userName + "','" + createOn + "')"; Any help would be much appreciated
Hey :)I'm facing a lot of troubles trying to create a new pause/break-system. Right now i'm building up the query that counts how many records that is inside 2 fields. Let me first show you my table: ID (int) | stamp_start (Type: DateTime) | stamp_end (Type: DateTime) | Username (varchar)0 | 17-03-07 12:00:00 | 17-03-07 12:30:00 | Hovgaard The client will enter a start time and a end time and this query should then count how many records that are inside this periode of time. Example: The client enter starttime: 12:05 and endtime: 12:35.The query shall then return 1 record found. The same thing if the user enters 12:20 and 12:50.My current query looks like this:SELECT COUNT(ID) AS Expr1 FROM table WHERE (start_stamp <= @pausetime_start) AND (end_stamp >= @pausetime_end)But this will only count if I enter the exact same times as the one inside the table.Any ideas how I can figure this out?Thanks for your time so far :)/Jonas Hovgaard - Denmark
Hi, I have a column of type datetime in sqlserver 2000. Whenever I try to insert the date '31/08/2006 23:28:59' I get the error "...datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value" I've looked everywhere and I can't solve the problem. Please note, I first got this error from an asp.net page and in order to ensure that it wasn't some problem with culture settings I decided to run the query straight in Sql Query Anaylser. The results were the same. What else could it be? cheers, Ernest
I am inserting date and time data into a SQL Server 2012 Express table from an application. The application is providing the date and time as a string data type. Is there a TSQL way to convert the date and time string to an SQL datetime date type? I want to do the conversion, because SQL displays an error due to the
My date and time string from the application looks like : 3/11/2014 12:57:57 PM
Nothing difficult, I just need a way to generate a new datetime column based on the column [PostedDate], datetime. So basically I want to truncate the time. Thanks a lot.
select convert(datetime,'04-20-' + right(term,4)) as dt, 'Deposit' as type, a.* from dbo.status_view a
where right(term,4) always returns a string which constitutes a 4 digit year eg '1999','2004',etc.
The SQL above returns
2004-04-20 00:00:00.000 Deposit ...
Which makes me think that it is able to successfully construct the datetime object inline. But then when I try and do:
select * from ( select convert(datetime,'04-20-' + right(term,4)) as dt, 'Deposit' as type, a.* from dbo.status_view a ) where dt >= a.submit_date
I get the following error:
Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
Given that it executes the innermost SQL just fine and seems to convert the string to a datetime object, I don't see why subsequently trying to USE that datetime object for something (in this case comparison with submit_date which is a datetime in the table a) should screw it up. Help!!! Thanks...
Hi,I have a text file that contains a date column. The text file will beimported to database in SQL 2000 server.

I am currently running Windows XP Professional Service Pack2. It already has MSDE & SQL Server 2000 installed (although I just uninstalled MSDE in the vain hope that it might present the installer with a more straightforward upgrade).
I have tried installing with the default instance & a new instance (I don't really care - I just need to install the darn thing). I just want the basic database & Books On-line, nothing fancy.
