Datetime To Text

Jul 17, 2012

I need to produce 2 different results depending on whether a datetime field is completed or not. If I was doing this on a spreadsheet I would use -

IF(CLOSED_DT<>0,"Yes","No")

but I don't know how to duplicate this in SQL.

HT Convert Datetime To Text On The Fly

Apr 24, 2007

I want to merge data from two different tables that have the same column names but different datatypes.

Table one has a varchar field pubdate_full that includes a date formatted as text like this: '2005-04-15'.

Table two has a smalldatetime field called Hard_NYP and a varchar pubdate field that includes just the year (eg '2007').

I want to Select data in table two and return a pubdate_full field that has either the datepub or the Hard_due. If the Hard_due is not null or '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM' then I want to fill pubdate_full with that value, otherwise fill it with the pubdate value.

This works in that regard:

SELECT Hard_due, datepub
CASE WHEN (Hard_due <> '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM') AND
(Hard_due IS NOT NULL) THEN Hard_Due ELSE datepub END AS pubdate_full from inventory

The question is, how do I convert pubdate_full on the fly to be the same format and datatype as the Table one pubdate_full or vice versa in order to be able to merge the two tables?

Many thanks in advance.

Text In To Datetime Question

May 15, 2006

Using SQL 2000


I have created a DTS Packages to import data from our back office database, which uses DBF files. This works great, however the way in which the dates are stored in the DBFs are as follows: -

4th May 2006 = 05/04/A6 (The A was a desperate bid by the developers to get by the Y2K issues)

Now the data is in SQL, I have created a view for each table, which re-orders the date data so it is displayed as dd/mm/yyyy using the following syntax: -

substring([eff],4,2)+'/'+left([eff],2)+'/'+'200'+right ([eff],1) AS [Eff Date]

This now looks good, however we can not use this data in a query using the between start date and end date as it sees it as text.

How can I convert this data to Datetime?

I believe it can be done with a cast or convert command, however do not know the correct syntax nor know how to apply it to our date columns in each table/view.

Any suggestion will be gratefully received.

Converting A Text String To Datetime

Sep 24, 2007

Hello all,

New to the forums here. I'm not a beginner with SQL, but nor am I a SQL developer - network engineer who knows some scripting and the fundamentals of DB design/administration. There's the background.

I have a database of client information where a date is keyed in and stored as text. Because this is entered by end-users, the way it's entered varies - 1/1/2001, 01/01/2001, etc. Most use "1/1/2001" (note the date is not the same for each record)

I have 4,000 records to update and I need to try to convert the text string to the correct date - changing 1/1/2005 to the same date in proper date/time format. My database uses datetime as an integer calculating the number of days from 12/30/1800. Today's date would be 75508. Time is separated into different fields.

I can do the work to update the text to a single format to make the conversion easier, but I am having trouble locating the proper way to write a convert function to do this. I've searched online (which is how I came here) and have searched the forums without luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Yyyymmdd Text Data Into A Datetime Field In SQL Server?

Apr 19, 2006

Hello,

I have an Excel spreadsheet that contains 100,000 + rows of data. Two of the columns in the spreadsheet are date fields that are sent over in the yyyymmdd format (no separators such as "-" or "/"). I tried converting these fields into dates using the Data Conversion task in SSIS. This doesn't work as it appears that SSIS cannot map a string in the format of yyyymmdd to a valid date. In lieu of this, I have added a Script Component to my transformation which can take the string and convert it to a date value using some Substring() calls on the source yyyymmdd string.

A few questions for the group ...

1. Is this there a more efficient or "better" way of performing this transformation?

2. I can also use OLE DB Command task in my transformation and make a call that might do something like this: select convert(datetime, convert(varchar(10), [@yyyymmddValue])) but how would this perform related to the Script Component task? My guess is that this would be slower since the transformation would make a database call for every record.

3. Are there any plans for the SQL team to make these types of conversions easier to implement in the future? It seems to me that this is a pretty common scenario for integrating date data.

Thanks!

Query To Get Values From Datetime Column Into Comma Separated Text

Dec 20, 2005

Hi All
I am working on a query to get all the datetime values in a column in a table into a comma separated text.
eg.

I wanted to get something like
2005-11-09, 2005-11-13, 2005-11-14, 2005-11-16 
Have just started SQL and hence am getting confused in what I think should be a relatively simple query. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

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"];

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MessageBox.Show("saved");

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?

SQL Query: Finding Records Between Datetime Inside Datetime

Mar 17, 2007

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

Comparing A Real Datetime To A 'constructed' Datetime

Jun 15, 2004

I have the following SQL:

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...

Adding A Full Text Search Across Multiple Tables (with Text Fields)

Sep 7, 2007

Hi, i'm trying to do a full text search on my site to add a weighting score to my results.  I have the following database structure:
Documents: - DocumentID (int, PK) - Title (varchar) - Content (text) - CategoryID (int, FK)
Categories: - CategoryID (int, PK) - CategoryName (varchar)
I need to create a full text index which searches the Title, Content and CategoryName fields.  I figured since i needed to search the CategoryName field i would create an indexed view.  I tried to execute the following query:
CREATE VIEW vw_DocumentsWITH SCHEMABINDING ASSELECT dbo.Documents.DocumentID, dbo.Documents.Title, dbo.Documents.[Content], dbo.Documents.CategoryID, dbo.Categories.CategoryNameFROM dbo.Categories INNER JOIN dbo.Documents ON dbo.Categories.CategoryID = dbo.Documents.CategoryID
GOCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX vw_DocumentsIndexON vw_Documents(DocumentID)
But this gave me the error:
Cannot create index on view 'dbname.dbo.vw_Documents'. It contains text, ntext, image or xml columns.
I tried converting the Content to a varchar(max) within my view but it still didn't like.
Appreciate if someone can tell me how this can be done as surely what i'm trying to do is not ground breaking.

SQL Server 2000 Full Text Search (extract Pieces Of Text)

Sep 12, 2007

Hello everyone !
I want to perform Full Text Search with SQL Server 2000. My documents (.doc, .xls, .txt, .pdf) are stored in a SQL Server field which is binary (the type of the column is image).
I would like to know, how you can extract pieces of text from the documents.
Example:
I have a ASPX page with codebehind in C# making the search in a table in SQL server that is full text indexed.
I make a search looking for the word "peace", than SQL server will take care about the search and return it to me the rows that match with that. But also I'd like to extract the 50 characters before and after where sql server found the word "peace" to show in the result page.
Does anyone has any idea how to work around it ?
 Best regards.

Problem With Text Field: Text Input Too Long, Weird Characters

May 15, 2006

Hi,

Im a programmer for an university webportal which uses php and msssql.
When an user creates a new entry and his text is too long the entry is cut short and weird characters appear at the end of the entry.

For example:
http://www.ttz.uni-magdeburg.de/scripts/test-messedb/php/index.php?option=show_presse&funktion=presse_show_mitteilung&id=333

How can I set the text limit to unlimited?
Could it be something else?
Is there a way of splitting an entry to several text fields automatically?


Thanks in advance for any help you can give me,

Displaying Html Formatted Text In Text Object In Visual Studio 2005 Crystal Report

Apr 29, 2008

Hello,

I know this question has been asked here before, but it was ridiculously answered : http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=98764&SiteID=1

I have a text object on my crystal report, to which I programmatically want to assign text in CS. It all works fine, except that if I have html tags in there, the text doesn't get formatted, it just displays the html tags as text as well.

Now in thread linked above, the answer was: right click the text object, and format the text object, hit paragraph text and select text interpretation to HTML. The only problem is, that for a text object, it doesn't have the text interpretation option. It's only an option for a formula field. It says so in the tech support link posted inside the post itself!!!

So if you have any idea how I can do this, please someone help me out. I am new to crystal, and there's not much helpful info on it online. I've searched for this for hours, and no solution.

Thanks
