Format Parameter Date - What's The Best Approach To Get Around This?
Sep 28, 2007
Hello,
Basically my situation is the server environment it seems to be all US region. Everything runs well. When local users attempt reports they get the format parameter issue because their machinese are all CDN region.
I've read through this forum and found quite a bit of people with the same issue of formatting the parameter date. And there are a bunch of recommendations for each scenario.
What i'm wondering is.... from all the experience of the users out here who have had that issue...what would be the most recommended way of fixing this issue? Would I change the server environment to CDN region and then change all the reports default language to English(Canada)? Or is there anything else someone might recommend.
I also read about this hotfix: FIX: The calendar control in a SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services report may display incorrect values http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940382/en-US but not sure if this would fix the problem.
Thanks for everyone's help.
Cheers!

Hi,
I have some difficulties to format a Date value in my reporting service.
As you know you can use this kind of expression:
=DateTime.Parse(Parameters!ReportingDate.Value).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
But it does not work, and when I just want to use the format property of the textbox content such as "dd/MM/yyyy", it displays "dd/MM/yyyy", not the real formatted data, this property works for "=Today()" but not for parameters and fields. What is the diffrence?
Have you an idea to format a Parameter/Field of Date type such as dd/MM/yyyy?
Many thanks!

Hi All,
I'm using report with a date parameter (user enters a date) and all transactions before that date are displayed. I don't know how to set parameter date format on the displayed report to dd/mm/yyyy.
If it's not a parameter I usually use sql " convert(varchar(10),datefield,103)" but don't know how to use this with parameter.
Thanks
Sonny

Hi
I am trying get my VB6 application to insert a record into a table (SQL Express) which has a datetime column but it would not process if the data format is differ to *American Date format*.
The date() function in VB returns 15/11/2006 which is in Australian Date format (DD/MM/YYYY) according to my setting in "Reginal and Lanuage Option-> Locale 0> English (Australia)" setting.
I get the following error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Server KITSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
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.
My computer's locale is set to English (Australia) and I expect the datetime format would follow what is set in system locale
I've read an article somewhere on the net about how SQL 2005 eliminate the confusion of date conversion when read/write datetime records into a table...but it seems to me that it is still as in-flexible as MS Access
Is there a setting in the database that takes care of it?
Thanks

Using DTS package in 2000 version, I am dumping TXT file contents into SQL Table,
I have one column having date in format YYYYMMDD(20070929) and corresponding column in SQL is datetime, but it fails on data type mismatch.
I have no choice of making date column in SQL to string or Varchar etc,
is there any way to make that date column in SQL to convert the value upon transformation from format (YYYYMMDD) to M/DD/YYYY (9/29/2007).
many many thanks,

Dear Expert!
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 12:00 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 wont appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards

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.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,
I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters).
Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.
My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension .
Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?
Other question :
Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007".
But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All".
Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.
Thanks !

I need to do the following and am hoping someone can help me out.
I have C#(asp.net app) that will call a stored procedure. The C# will pass in a date to thestored procedure. The date is in the format YY/MM/DD. Once inside of the stored procedure, the datepassed into the stored proc needs to be compared to todays date. Todays date must be determined inthe SQL.
So basically here is my pseudo code for what I am trying to accomplish. Basically I just am afterthe comparison of the two values:
If @BeginDate < TodaysDate
The difficult part is how to obtain the value for "TodaysDate"
Taking into consideration that "TodaysDate" should probably be in the format of YY/MM/DD considering that is how the date it is to be compared with is being passed in.
Can someone please code this out for me in Microsoft SQL. I would be forever grateful.

Hi,
I Have this simple convertion in a Script component
Dts.Variables("dateOfProcess").Value = CDate(lineMCF.Substring(30, 2) + "/" + lineMCF.Substring(28, 2) + "/" + lineMCF.Substring(24, 4))
this works fin in my development environment which has a spanish version of SQL Server and uses "DD/MM/YYYY" as date format.
but the production environment has an english version of SQL Server and "MM/DD/YYYY" date format, so the package crashes in this server.
How do I convert the string to date not depending on the SQL server language.
thanks.

I have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.
I've played with various combinations of CAST & CONVERT but haven't been able to get it to work.
Below is my latest effort which returns the error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'
What code would work to return a MM/DD/YYYY value for New_Accounting_Date?
Select GLBATCH.AccountingDate,
convert(GLBATCH.AccountingDate as date),101) AS New_Accounting_Date
from GLBATCH

Date parameter. I created a report that allows a drop down for a date range to be selected. However, whenever I preview the report, I get an error. I know my error stems from my date fields being in this format "201301" , and the "date/ time" in SSRS being mm/dd/yyyy on the drop down calendar in SSRS.
I know the direction I want to go in, but just a little confused on where would I use the convert or cast function. Would it be in the data parameter itself, or a part of the query before the @start date and @End date?

Hi all, i am a newbie to reporting services. Hope someone can help me with this date problem.
I have a parameter date which i declared as type string in the report manager. when i entered the date as eg) "31/12/2003" and clicked on the 'preview' tab in the report manager, it gives me error saying that 'Cast from string "31/12/2003" to type 'Date' is not valid.'
So i use the cultureinfo function to set the date to 'en-US' format.... something like the one below:
CStr( Format(DateTime.Parse( Parameters!strDateTo.Value , New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")), "dd-MMM-yyyy"))
This works perfectly in my preview tab. But when i deployed to the server and when viewed on IE, it gives me an error msg -> "#Error" instead. Why is that so??
I have also checked my pc regional settings . It's set to United States and the date format is also "dd/MM/yyyy". Have also checked the settings in the server and it's also set to the same format. But i am still getting this error.
By the way... i am using windows 2003 with SRS 2000 SP2.
Any help will be appreciated. Thks !

I have used Data Flow component that refers to named query of data source view. It is a OLE DB source.
The SQL Command property of data flow component shows SELECT * FROM Tablename as I defiend in named query. I have modified the query to accept a parameter as SELECT * FROM Tablename WHERE Status = ?
Now I need to pass the package variable to this parameter. How to I pass using ParameterMapping property?. What is correct way of passing the parameter mapping ? I tried with @[TestNS:tatus] variable. But it throws error The parameter mapping string is not in the correct format.

I am working with SRS 2005 SP1 which no longer has the "ALL" option available on parameters. I am trying to create an "ALL" entry in a picklist so it can be used in a where clause for a dataset. I have a dataset with a union statement that creates a list of CRM usersids and names and an entry with a dummy guid with the name "All". Parameter is defined as a string type, with a dataset providing a list of users (label field) and their corresponding GUID value (value field), along with the an "All" entry.
select systemuserid, fullname
from FilteredSystemUser
Union
Select '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' as systemuserid, ' All' as fullname
order by fullname
The issue I am running into is implementing logic in another dataset referencing my parameter.
All is fine in the where clause if it is structured "where ownerid in (@Users)" but if I try to add logic to check for the "All" option "where (ownerid in (@Users) or @Users = '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000') it errors out.
How do you impement "All" when you're dealing with a GUID type field? Thanks.
