I'm new to SQL server. My question here is how can I format the data that is retrieved as a result of SELECT.
Similar defining the column format in SQL Plus. For some reason SQL Server puts in extra spaces between the data fields in the .dat file.
I have created SSRS report which has many overlapping objects, the output in PDF format seems to good but in word format it is not giving the required output.

Hi All,
I am stuck at one place, where I have to convert CSV format file data into SAP IDOC format file. In SSIS we don't have any such SAP adapter (though we have .NET Data Provider for mySAP suite [SSIS SAP Adapter] but this is still not fully supported by Microsoft, plus it doesn't have feature to convert data into IDOC format) that can do this. Can someone here please provide me some pointers on any third party adapters available in market to do this job or if anyone has already developed some custom approach to achieve this task?
Your quick response on this is highly appreciated.

2012 - Date Format in the SQL Trace for the request '2015-09-10 00:00:00' which is working as expected.
2008 - Date Format in the SQL Trace for the request 'Sep 10 2015 12:00:00:000AM' which is Not working.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi Everybody, I have SQL Server running on Win NT. My question is : Is there a way to change the format Of date type fields (datetime and smalldatetime) from the US Date format which is for ex: July 13 1998 to 13 July 1998. I know I can use several functions to do it elsewhere, but I want it to become my default format for the new columns I create in new tables.

Hi all,
I'm getting alot of date converstion trouble with my application when the end user's regional settings is not the same as the sql server box... I am using normal sqlcommands to enter my data into the sql db (vb.net), and alot of times I get users who's application breaks, because of this.
My question is... Is there some T-SQL command in sql server which will tell me the date formats it expects?
What I want to do then is query the server for these settings on startup of my application, and then set my application to use that date format for all it's date functions... This way, I'll eliminate the errors my application has to deal with.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I have a need to convert sql server data to cobol format. Has anyone done this?
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

Hi.
I'm localized in Greece and the date format used is dd/mm/yyyy.
So I have is that I made a page with a callendar. The user picks a date and this date is stored to an SQL server. But here comes the problem. When I try to write to the server the above format ( dd/mm/yyyy ) is not accepted because SQL wants date in format ( mm/dd/yyyy). So if day is bigger than 12 I get error or if is less than 13 wrong date is stored in the SQL.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi Dear All DBAs
Does anyone know whether you can specify date format(EG dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy) for SQL server when you install it?
It seems to me that it always assume US date format when converting a date string to a datatime variable.
You can easily try this by running query
Select convert(smalldatetime, "30/5/2000"). It would say "...out of range..." until you use "5/30/2000". It does not seem to relate to NT regional setting(I already set it to our local setting dd/mm/yyyy).
You can use "set dateformat" in the application to get around it.
But I would like to change the default format to dd/mm/yyyy.
Any solution? (EG reinstall SQL server?)
SQL 2k w2k server sp2
When I first installed the SQL server on my server, the default date
format was mm/dd/yy. Now I need to change that to dd/mm/yy in
regional settings, but its still not reflected in the DB's in SQL (its
still mm/dd/yy).
Is it possible to change it in SQL without a complete reinstallation
of the server?

Hi,
I have to generate a daily report of survey answers by users? My question is there a way to reformat the query so it generates a table or report with it showing the rows as columns instead.
Here is my initial query.
SELECT
dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.DateCreated AS DateCreated
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.questionid AS QuestionID
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.surveyid AS SurveyID
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber AS OrderNumber
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.userid AS UserID
,dbo.Reporting_User.LastName1 AS LastName
,dbo.Reporting_User.FirstName AS FirstName
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionText AS QuestionText
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.QuestionAnswer AS QuestionAnswer
FROM
dbo.Reporting_Surveys
INNER JOIN dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions
ON dbo.Reporting_Surveys.surveyid = dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.surveyid
INNER JOIN dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers
ON dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionID = dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.QuestionID
INNER JOIN dbo.uvwReporting_User
ON dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.userid = dbo.uvReporting_User.userid
WHERE
dbo.uvReporting_SurveyAnswers.surveyid = 1125
Order by dbo.Reporting_SurveyAnswers.DateCreated
,dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber
Select
dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.ordernumber AS OrderNumber
, dbo dbo.Reporting_SurveyQuestions.QuestionText AS QuestionText
To complicate matters, some of the users did not answer some of the questions and some of the questions are duplicated in the rows because the database assigned them one answer each.
Example. Question 18 says "Name all the industries you have worked in. Check all that apply.
What happens is lets say the user checks 4 different boxes. In the query results, it will show 4 rows with question 18 with each answer they checked off.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

The IT shop I work in installed MS-SQL Server last week for the solepurpose of converting a large MS-SQL Server database to a format thatInformix (our main database engine) can read. MSSQL Server installedperfectly, I can view/manipulate the little "Northwind" sampledatabase, back it up to a file, restore it (Microsoft Tape Format) justfine. But... The MSSQL Server "backup" file they sent me that I needto restore is in a format that I'm unfamiliar with. It is a large*.sqb file and when I try to restore (using Enterprise Manager - Rightclick on "empty" database, choose All Tasks, Restore Database - FromDevice, Point to File - I get the message: File is not a validMicrosoft Tape Format backup set.Looking at my little Northwind backup file in a hex editor I see thecharacters "TAPE" as the first 4 characters of the file. Looking atthe file that I'm unsuccessfully trying to restore in a hex editor Isee "SSBE". It's not in the standard "Microsoft Tape Format"apparently, but does anyone have any clue what might have created thisbackup file? I hope it's not some weird proprietary program! Anyhelp appreciated, thanks...Joe

Hi,
I'm working with a table with more than 2 million rows. The problem is that the table has a field called "ShipDate" of type nvarchar. When I try to change the data type to DateTime sql server throws a data conversion error.
I noticed that the date format is as follow: 2006-10-23, so, is there a way sql server takes this field and change it using the field values and applying the correct format? meaning: 10/23/2006
thanks a lot
