If I subtract 14 days from a datetime field, will the time of day that I run this query affect the resultset? I am running the query during "normal business hours", 8 am - 5 pm, and the records are entered during this time frame as well.
I am trying to make a stored procedure in SQLServer Express.The question is related to this stored procedure / transact - sql. I think i am doing something wrong with datetime.Here is the stored procedure.The error i am getting is that:Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 20Syntax error converting datetime from character string. ===================================== DECLARE @websiteID intDECLARE @dateFrom datetimeDECLARE @dateTo datetimeDECLARE @sortbystring varchar (20)set @websiteID = 1set @dateFrom = Convert(datetime, '2007-02-07 12:01:00')set @dateTo = Convert(datetime, '2007-03-07 11:59:00')set @sortbystring = 'Campaign'IF ISNULL(@dateTo, '') = ''begin SET @dateTo = @dateFromendSET @dateTo = DATEADD(d, 1, @dateTo)DECLARE @str CHAR(400)LINE 20: SET @str = 'SELECT dateEntry, c.name as Campaign, e.firstname as FirstName FROM entry e, campaign c WHERE e.campaignID = c.id ' + 'AND c.websiteID = @websiteID' + 'AND (ISNULL(' + @dateFrom + ', '''') = '''' OR e.dateEntry BETWEEN '' + @dateFrom + '' AND '' + @dateTo + '') ' + 'AND e.IP NOT IN (SELECT IP FROM IP) ' + ' ORDER BY dateEntry DESC'print (@str)===============================================
hey all, i need to find the ratio of difference in 2 datetime variables and the difference of another 2 datetime vars. I figured the best way to do it is to convert the difference in both numerator and denominator to number of minutes.
I have a column in a table that stores the number of hours a task took to do. The column TaskDuration is a datetime datatype. I need to convert the hours to something that can be summed. Does anyone how this can be done? I tried CONVERT(nvarchar(5), tblTasks.TaskDuration, 108) but of course the nvarchar(5) cannot be summed. Maybe there is a way to convert the time portion to minutes and divide it by 60, anyway if someone can offer some help I appreciate it.
I've table and data as follow, declare @tAccount table ( isLocked bit, LastLockoutDate datetime, currentDte dateTime )
insert into @tAccount values('true','2014-04-26 16:11:25.337',getdate()) Let's say, current data as follow, isLocked| LastLockoutDate| currentDte 12014-04-26 16:11:25.3372014-04-27 01:45:15.053
How to get different in minutes between currentDate and LastLockoutDate? Mean, currentDate - LastLockoutDate.
In a report there are following in parameters: from date, to date, from time and to time.
I need to match these search criterias against start time and stop time in assignments. The trick: How to write SQL that meets all different cases that can arise.
The query need's to traverse through every assignment, and see if its start and stop time is in the interval given by the user.
It should then return the minutes from the assignment that is within the interval.
I'm thinking of packaging the minute "extracting" logic in a Scalar-valued function.
It should then take the in parameters from the user, and start time and stop time from the assignment as arguments.
To consider: Crossing midnight.
E.g. the user puts in
From date: 2008-05-24
From time: 22:00:00
To date: 2008-05-26
To time: 02:00:00
Since the user wants to evaluate a time span that crosses midnight,
I'll have to look in to time spans like:
2008-05-24 22:00:00 - 2008-05-24 23:59:59
2008-05-25 00:00:00 - 2008-05-25 02:00:00
2008-05-25 22:00:00 - 2008-05-25 23:59:59
2008-05-26 00:00:00 - 2008-05-26 02:00:00
Furthermore the start- and stop time can be partially in the above interval.
E.g. an assignment starts 2008-05-24 21:46:11 and stops 2008-05-24 22:36:05.
This would then yield from the time spans above 36 minutes.
I need to ignore the hours minutes and seconds elements of a datetime field - I've got a way of doing this in my select statement but it seems to be this can't be the most efficient way!

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
I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them as datetime but it failed.
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[table_Data]') AND type in (N'U')) DROP TABLE [dbo].[table_Data] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[table_Data] Script Date: 04/21/2015 22:07:49 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[table_Data]') AND type in (N'U'))
OUr end-users will be accessing data through a SQL view through third party applications. Ex. Access, Excel, Crystal Reports. All the date fields need to only have 'Data' XX/XX/XXXX, not datetime. Since SQL Server only stores the data as datetime, I convert the data in the proper format in the Create view statement. The only problem is that the data is now a text (varchar(10) field in which sorting through these third party applications causes issues. Ex. 01/05/2000 comes before 02/02/1999 because it sorts on the first characters. Is there a way in SQL to store the data as a Date only or any other suggestions.

Trying to extract the time portion from a datetime field. ex 7:15:12 AM from 1/1/2008 7:15:12 aM This is what I tried and neither functions give me the results I want.... SELECT DueTime, CONVERT(varchar, DueDate, 108) AS Expr1, SUBSTRING(CAST(DueDate AS varchar), 10, LEN(DueDate)) AS Expr2, CAST(DueDate AS varchar) AS Expr3FROM TODO Due Time Expr1 Expr2 Expr3 1/1/2008 5:15:00 PM 00:00:00 12:00:00 AM Jan 1 2008 12:00:00 AM It seems Cast(DueDate as varchar) is the problem it converts the time to the default 12:00:00 AM In the above example I want 5:15:00 PM
Here is my nightmare!! : I have 3 database tables. ( START, STOP, TICK )START ( Start_ID, Start_Time )STOP ( Stop_ID, Stop_Time )TICK ( Tick_ID, Tick_Time ) I have 3 records in each tables with the time fields being in datetime format. What I want to accomplish: I want to compare Tick_Time to see if it is between Start_Time and Stop_Time. ie. IF Tick_Time > Start_Time AND Tick_Time < Stop_Time THEN that Tick_Time.colour = Green elseTick_Time.colour = Red Can datetime fields be easily compared like I have shown above? Else can anyone give me an idea of howwwww Thanks and any help is appreciated
Hi, I have used smalldatetime datatype to store my date and time values. i want to store just the date or time but the problem is it stores both the date and time. For eg, if i add the the date 03/11/2004, it also the stores the current time automatically. so the new value will be something like 03/11/2004 10:00:00 AM where i want just 03/11/2004. further problem is even though i managed to store just the date like 03/11/2004 in the database, whole date and time shows up when i display it in my pages.
Hi! Can anyone tell me how to perform a substring operation on a DateTime field. I'm using SQLServer. I have read that you may have to use casts but I have thus far been unable to get that to work. My statement: SELECT EventDate FROM tblEvent WHERE Category = 'GE'; I just want to cut the hours, minutes and seconds off, so that I am left with just the date element. Thanks all. Gren
I was wondering if someone could help me here with some reporting I'm trying to do. For website visits, I currently use getdate() to have SQL insert the date and time of the visit in the table. I was wondering, is there a way to grab just the month from the field? I would like to chart this and I need to group the visits by month. I'm not sure how I would go about filtering just the month out of the entire date and time fields.
Hello, I would appreciate any suggestions I've got a datetime field that I'd like to store as just the date without the time component, but still to keep it defined as a datetime field. I ran this update statement but this conversion isn't working. Conversion to char gives me what I want but I need to keep the field as a date datatype if possible. Thanks :)

I have a table with datetime field in SQL server 7.0 I have inserted values into datetime field for eg: '10/10/99' '10/10/99 10:30 AM' '11/10/99 11:50 PM' When I view this table from enterprise manager, values are shown exactly in the same format I have entered. But, When I run the query from Query Analyzer, It always shows values in the following format '1999-10-10 00:00:00.000'
Is there a way that I can see the values in the same format I have entered.
