I have an SQL database with a number of fields, one of which is for storing the date (datetime).
When I insert data into the table, I only supply the date because I don't want or need the time to be listed. However, when I execute a query, the data that shows up in my gridview is (e.g) 13/10/2007 12:00:00 AM.
What I want ti know is, how can I format the datetime when I run the query so that it only shows 13/10/2007?
This is how I'm retrieving the data at the moment:
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM tblMail", sqlConn);
conn.Open()
SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
dataGrid.DataSource = reader;
dataGrid.DataBind();
conn.close()
In my dataGrid, I have a number of fields that are bound to the data source, such as Date, Name, Address etc etc
Anyway, any ideas on how I can format the SQL DateTime so it only shows the date in my datagrid?

Hi I’ve got a simple SQLdataSource which is wired up to a gridView. When the page loads, it’s sometimes likely the data source would contain no data – how can I test for that in the code behind (no data)? I’d like to only show a button if there is data? I’m using ASP.NET 2.0 with C# Many thanksRichard
I'm using the asp.net login controls and am storing the user data in the sql table that get's automaticaly built by visual studio. I display records based on who is logged in. Currently i use a Session parameter in my datasource for the user name and store the username in a session variable on the page load event, Session["UserName"]= User.Identity.Name. Is there a way i can use a Profile parameter in my data source and skip setting session variable all together? I tried putting Name and UserName and User.Identity.Name in the Profile property but nothing seems to work. Thanks for any help.
1. As per my current development SQL Sever Analysis Database consists of two Cube (Cube A and Cube B). Cube A and Cube B share the same data source view (DSV1). The source for both these cubes has the same data source (DS1).
2. As per the requirement I need to create third Cube i.e. Cube C. Is it possible to create a second Data Source View (DSV2). The Source of second Data Source View (DSV2) will be the same data source(DS1).
I am thinking to create second Data Source View (DSV2) for Cube C because existing layout of the DSV1 has become complex. I wanted to know the pros and cons of creating a multiple data source view with same data source
Hello,Can I import an OLTP (Reltional DB) as a Data Source into SQL ServerAnalysis Services 2005 and then use the Cube Wizard and the new DataSource View feature to create the OLAP model ?Or do I have to first design an OLAP Data Warehouse with a Star Schemaand then import this DW as a Data Source into my Analysis ServicesProject.With SQL Server 2000 , OLAP would be the way to go..but with SQLServer 2005 , it seems as though the wizard and data source viewfeatures do half the work for you.I have an OLTP DB and am not sure which route I should take ! Anysuggestions / input would be much appreciated.Thanks in Advance...RegardsRusszee
I have a datasource view DSV1. It points to a datasource DS1 that is considered the "primary".
I have created a Report Model that uses DSV1 (and thus uses DS1)
I created a new datasource, DS2 that I would like to use instead of DS1. (I can't just modify DS1 because if I modify it, it will overwrite it when we go to our Production environment and break that datasource)
So, I can go into DSV1 and change all the references from DS1 to DS2.
But that's where the problem lies.
When I try to build, I get the following error:
"The Table property of the Entity "E1" refers to the Table "dbo_View", which is not in the primary data source."
Somehow, the entity is tied to the "primary" datasource. When I change it back to DS1, everything works fine. Any thoughts? What can I do?
I have created database and OLAP cube in Analysis services using SSAS.In SSAS I have used a datasource which is using SQL tables to populate OLAP cube.Now when I added some more data to my SQL tables and trying to deploy cube,the newly added is not getting populated in the cube.So i want run SSIS package which will import data from SQL tables to this OLAP cube.
Can you please help me how to write this SSIS package to import data from SQL tables to OLAP cube.(Very urgent issue)

Hi I am trying to export data from SQL which is ok and I can do that part. However from the result of the query I need to add the values of certain columns. Because I'm a newbie to SQL I'll explain and try and show images as best as I can as we go.... So far I have written a query select Stockitem.code, Warehouseitem.ConfirmedQtyInStock, Warehouseitem.UnConfirmedQtyInStock, Warehouseitem.QuantityAllocatedStock, Warehouseitem.QuantityAllocatedBOM, Warehouseitem.QuantityAllocatedSOP, WarehouseItem.WarehouseIDfrom WarehouseItem INNER JOIN StockItem ONWarehouseItem.ItemID = Stockitem.itemidINNER JOIN BinItem ONBinitem.itemid = stockitem.itemidwhere WarehouseItem.WarehouseID = '3403' AND BinItem.BinName LIKE 'S%' AND BinItem.BinName <> 'S' OR BinItem.BinName LIKE 'T%' AND BinItem.BinName <> 'T'order by stockitem.code This returns the following results.... Code ConfirmedQtyInStock UnConfirmedQtyInStock QuantityAllocatedStock QuantityAllocatedBOM QuantityAllocatedSOP WarehouseID 12345 96.00000 .00000 .00000 3.00000 13.00000 3403 Now I am trying to find out the amount of freestock available for everything with the WarehouseID 3403. Therefore in the example above to be able to workout how many '12345' (Code) we have in stock, the equation used to find out the free stock available is as follows.... Free Stock = (ConfirmedQtyInStock + UnConfirmedQtyInStock) – (QuantityAllocatedStock+ QuantityAllocatedBOM + QuantityAllocatedSOP) Therefore if I manually use the equation above the amount of freestock available = Free Stock = (96+0) - (0+3+13) = 80 (free stock). Then once I have the equation to be able to output the 'freestock' quantity, I need to export the results into an excel spreadsheet with the following layout... ColumnA Code,FreeStock 12345,80 Hope I've explained this in a good manner, any help would be gratefully received. Simba

I wish to extract the data from an SQL database table to a txt file. There are certain integer fields that I want to output as 7 chars long with leading zeroes. So for example if the column January_total contains the value 123 I would want that ouptut as 0000123. Can anyone advise me as to what the best way to go about doing this is - I've looked at how CAST and CONVERT work but they dont seem to to offer the functionality I require.
What's the best way to export data from SQL Server to XML format. I've taken over a VB application written to carry out this task but it seems more complicated than it needs to be. Is it possible to just miss out VB and use say a DTS program instead??
I have been given a schema(XSD) file and as far as I'm aware any xml has to be formatted according to this schema.
i realized that there is much talk where data will be stored, what are the ways to organize data, but did not see anywhere what format this data. If they are text files they are .txt? All of them? Why Linux in a text file does not necessarily need to have this extension.For example, this forum, every time a thread is created it creates a text file with the contents of the thread inside a folder that represents the board? Is that how it works?
I want a report in excel from my SQL database from one table. I wantto create a view and then use DTS package to export it to excelformat.But how can i get the following format in a view??

I have a PC install the SQL Server 2005 Eng Version and have a database with table.In the table , there is a datetime format column. So, I write a SQL Insert into Table1 (startdate) values ('4-Oct-2006 10:24:29 AM'), It works, record inserted. I have another Server (Windows Server 2003 Chinese Version with SQL Server 2005 Chinese Version). Also,have a database with table and run the same sql statment Insert into Table1 (startdate) values ('4-Oct-2006 10:24:29 AM'). It does not work, since the error message is in chinese, so I try to translate in english. The error says something like, "when converting the string to datetime, it fails" And then I try to rewrite the SQL into Insert into Table1 (startdate) values ('10/4/2006 10:24:29 AM'). It works. So I want to ask and option I can set in SQL Server 2005 to make me use different kinds of date format in the SQL. Please Help, thanks stepby
Hello all, I am trying to modify the output of a SELECT statement in a VB asp.net page that pulls data from a SQL DB. I only need to modify one column in the gridview, but I'm having some issues. Here is the situation:SELECT TOP 24 ID, RecID, Timestamp, Answered, Holds, Dropped, Waits, Voicemail, Busied, LiveWaitsFROM mTrafficORDER BY Timestamp DESC The Timestamp column returns a number value (i.e. 564566).In terms of a date, 564566 doesn't mean anything to the user, so I need to convert this number into a recognizable and accurate date. The formula I need to implement is Timestamp/1440 - 1 The following SELECT statement returns the number as a date, but makes all records the same date: SELECT TOP 24 ID, RecID, Convert(datetime, Timestamp/1440 + 1) as Timestamp, Answered, Holds, Dropped, Waits, Voicemail, Busied, LiveWaitsFROM mTrafficORDER BY Timestamp DESC What do I need to do to implement this function dynamically into my gridview? Thanks in advance!
Why does SQL add 4 zeros at the end of a money data type? I have to format my strings once they are retrieved because of this. I am not sure if I did something wrong, but shouldn't it only have 2 trailing zero's?
i really need some help from all of you. I currently have some DTS package which will transfer data from text file to the SQL 7.0 This transformation is schedule using the Sql Agent.
The problem is the transfering data which have the Date datatype. the Date format is in the dd/mm/yyyy. But the default language i set in my sql server is english which suppose will use the date format mm/dd/yyyy.
therefore, the Sql server will treat my data which in dd/mm/yyyy as mm/dd/yyyy. so, the data like '08/09/2000' (in dd/mm/yyyy) become '08/09/2000' (in mm/dd/yyyy)
i already set my user'language who will login in the sql agent as 'british english'. I also the OLE connection in the DTS package that i built using 'british english'.
when i run the agent in the Sql Enterprice Manager, it use the dd/mm/yyyy format which is correct. BUt when i log out and let it run as services which mean let the agent excute the DTS. it use back the mm/dd/yyyy fromat which cause the data become wrongs.
i hope someone can give me some advice on this. Thanks for your help
Hi I am trying to export an table data to csv format. The problem here is the table columns are dynamic. The DTS exports only the columns available during the DTS design time and it ignores if any new columns are added after the design. I need solution for this asap. Thanks SqlJerin
