Hi
I have a query that a user runs and it includes this part.
CAST(CASE WHEN GetDate() > DateAdd(d, 13, DDOfferLetter.[PrintedOn]) AND GetDate() < DateAdd(d, 21, DDOfferLetter.[PrintedOn])AND A.DecisionID IS NULL AND A.OfferId = 2 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS BIT) AS RequireASecondOfferLetter
The problem im having is that i get diffeent answers depending on what time of day the query is run. This is because the GetDate() and the DDOfferLetter.[PrintedON] include the time as well as the date. I've tried CONVERT and fiddled around with it for 4 hours now.
Can someone give me some guidance please?
Thanks
Dan
In search of SQL to obtain "yesterday's" begin/end times for a batch process:
GETDATE() needs to be converted to Yesterdays FIRST and LAST second: ------- -------------------------------- 2001-06-25 14:23:56.054 ---> 2001-06-24 00:00:00.001 (1st sec. of yesterday) 2001-06-25 14:23:56.054 ---> 2001-06-24 23:59:59.999 (last sec. of yesterday)
Will CAST and/or CONVERT fucntions assist? The follwoing SQL returns GETDATE()-1 (yesterday along w/ a time) I need the time converted to 1st and last second...
,convert(varchar,getdate(),101) as [CONFIRMATION_DATE!1!REPORT_DATE] The above displays as 8/26/2006, anyway you can convert that to a long format in the SP? I.E. August 26, 2006 Thanks.
I have a query that run every day to update a summary table which has week number and day of week. what I currently do is delete all records from the summary table and then summarize all the data availabe from four tables adn then populate the table daily. I want to know if I can run the update query to run only for the week number and day of week depending on getdate. Can I do this?
I'm using some files to show certain pages on certain date for an example
File name : aa.doc start date: 10/02/00 end date : 10/03/00
But it expires on 10/02/00, here is the strored procedure:
Before the date comes, it expires the page Here is my stored procedure:
" SELECT startdate, enddate,archivedate and (startdate is null or (getdate() >= startdate and getdate() <= enddate)) and (archivedate is null or (getdate() <= archivedate)) group by startdate, enddate order by startdate desc "
Dear Experts,Ok, I hate to ask such a seemingly dumb question, but I'vealready spent far too much time on this. More that Iwould care to admit.In Sql server, how do I simply change a character into a number??????In Oracle, it is:select to_number(20.55)from dualTO_NUMBER(20.55)----------------20.55And we are on with our lives.In sql server, using the Northwinds database:SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2)) as a_number,cast ( STR(r.regionid) as int ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044SELECTr.regionid,STR(r.regionid,7,2) as a_string,CONVERT(numeric, STR(r.regionid,7,2) ) as a_number,cast (STR(r.regionid,7,2) as numeric ) as cast_to_numberFROM REGION R1 1.00112 2.00223 3.00334 4.0044Str converts from number to string in one motion.Isn't there a simple function in Sql Server to convertfrom string to number?What is the secret?Thanks
When I use the getDate() function I get something like 2005-03-09 15:13:45.017 but I don't want the time, just 2005-03-09 how do you strip out the time from the result? Thanks
However, when I run select getdate() in Sql 6.5 I get the following Apr 27 2001 11:59AM
Both queries are run from the QueryIsql window.
How can I get the sql 7 version of getdate to be exactly the same as the sql 6.5 version from the query window without resorting to usign the convert function?
According to Sql 7 books online, getdate "Returns the current system date and time in the Microsoft® SQL Server™ standard internal format for datetime values"
I'm facing some strange problem here: -----------------------------------------
I'm using some files to show certain pages on certain date for an example
File name : aa.doc start date: 10/02/00 end date : 10/03/00
But it expires on 10/02/00, here is the strored procedure:

i am also trying to write a query that retrieve information on yesterdays new registered member. So far as i am concern with sqlserver you use the getdate()-1 to retrieve this information. But the problem i get when i try to use the getdate()-1 is that i tend to get todays and yesterdays registered users. Is there anywhere that i would be able to retrieve information on just yesterdays new registered members and also only todays new register members.
I know this is going to sound really daft, but what is the easiest way of getting today's date without the time? Getdate() on it's own doesn't work because it always brings out the time. I know I'm missing something really basic but I can't figure it out.
G'day, I want to display the current time minus 5 minutes. say 2004-03-29 11:43:49.123 to be 2004-03-29 11:38:49.123.
Is there any Equivalent to the DB2's CURRENT TIMESTAMP - 5 MINUTES which will display the current day say 2004-03-29 11:43:49.123 as 2004-03-29 11:38:49.123
Hi, when I used getdate() fuction, its giving the correct time in this format 10/02/2007 01:04:31 PM. But I need the time in 24 hour format. Means it should be like 10/02/2007 13:04:31.
select H.IsoDate, HI.Country, HI.Center, H.ExchangeCode, HC.Holiday, H.HolidayCode from Holidays H join HolidayInfo HI on HI.Code = H.ExchangeCode join HolidayCodes HC on H.HolidayCode = HC.Code where H.isodate = getdate()
This is a script but the getdate part is not working can somebody point me in the right direction where i might be going wrong.
I am setting up a table and I want to capture the creation date of each record when it comes in. Obviously the easy way to do this is set the dfault value of this field to getdate(), but I am wondering if there is a benefit to using an insert trigger instead?
I will also be adding a seperate updatedOn field and plan to use an update trigger to populate it. If there is a better way to do either of these please let me know.
To write the current date to the console (for debugging purposes). Only problem is it only shows hours and minutes (not seconds). Can anyone suggest an equivalent that shows seconds as well?

Hello All, I have a problem as follows if i execute SELECT GETDATE() statement multiple times in a single run it returns me the same datetime without any difference in even milliseconds. I am unable to figure out what is wrong. I am assuming that whenever executed in a transaction it will give the same result. could anybody let me know what is correct. Thanks for your help in advance. SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() SELECT GETDATE() even then i get the same date.
Hi,I want to fetch all records of a table where the datefield (datetime field) equals getdate().select * where mydatfield = getdate()but this gives nothing because getdate() which also contains the min. and seconds, is always greater than the data field which contains 00:00 as min/seconds.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksTartuffe
hi allcan somebody tell me how can i insert todays date in sqlserver 2000 in dd/mm/yyyy format...i knw we use getdate but how exactly..plz write the code for me...i have datetime as datatype for my column name.....i want it in this format because i am using a datetimepicker to compare values while retreiving the data..and this datetime picker is taking dd/mm/yyyy format so i want to insert records in that format...plz helpthanks in advance
Im really new to SQL SProcs. I have a function that I wrote that I am trying to compare a date within a record to today's date. The problem is that you cant call getdate from within a function... So, I was thinking that I could create a temp table that had a a date column with a default date of today and select that out. However, I cant find any documentation on how you would create a temp table with a default value, or if this would even work. I dont want to have to pass todays date into the function, nor do I want to have to create a permanent table just to hold this data. Any help, or other ideas? Thanks.
