I have got data like this below in effective date column
2008-08-05 19:18:13.000
2008-08-05 19:17:10.000
Expected output:
2008-08-05 19:17:10
I need to truncate the milliseconds and insert the same into datetime column.
I tried as below
select convert(datetime,substring(convert(varchar,getdate(),20),1,20))
Thanks in advance
Hi,
i am trying to add milliseconds to a time. For example if i have a time of 01:01:05:000 and i want to add 0.297 milliseconds to it i use the following simplified query
SELECT CONVERT(nvarchar(20), DATEADD(ms, 0.297, '00:01:05:000'), 14) AS Expr1
However instead of getting 01:01:05:0.297 i get 01:01:05:000. Can somebody please tell me what i am doing wrong.
Thanks in advance.

why the results I receiving for Seconds is different? I get the same MS results.

Hi!
I have the difference between two dates in milliseconds. I want to convert this difference to the format hh:mm:ss.mmm, without the date. So, if the difference is bigger then one day, I would like to show it like this, for example: 36:25:14.047
How can I do this?
Thank you!
I've been working on a project to ensure that accross our entire data warehouse everything is at the same accuracy level as far as time - migrating everything to use the full hh:mis.mmm. Some places were using hh:mis:mmm (colon instead of decimal point) and many places not using milliseconds.
The SQL server portion went essentially without issue - however SSIS is not cooperating. For example I have data I am importing from a file that is in format: hh:mis (no milliseconds) that I need to compare to data from SQL (now containing full milliseconds) - matching on time ranges. Previously this was done by converting both to the "database time" datatype in SSIS and comparing. Now when converting the cTime to database time SSIS fails and complains "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data".
I don't want to lop off the milliseconds becuase that could create rounding errors.
I don't like it but the only option I can think of is keeping everything in string and comparing the strings... then I run into the issue of making sure to convert all sources of data into the exact same hh:mis:mmm format in text.
Is there an easier way? I know some people use "milliseconds since midnight" and so forth but that would require major reworking of the data warehouse and many packages.
Hi,
I am trying to access a date column up to millisecond precession. So I cast date to as follows:
Code BlockCONVERT(varchar(23),CREATE_DATE,121)
I get millisecond part as a result of query but its 000?.
Hi,
I tried entering this value "8/24/2006 1:35:00.127 PM" with 127 as the milliseconds in a datetime field, but encountered error saying inconsistent datatype ...
Anyone knows how to store datetime value with milliseconds in the SQL database?
Thanks
Hello all.I am attempting to insert a row into a table with a datetime column:When the insert statement contains a value for the millisecond portionof the data time column: ie. {ts '2003-11-05 12:02:43:2960'}I get 'Syntax error converting datetime from string'When I insert a value like: {ts '2003-11-05 12:02:43'}with no millisecond value it succeeds.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to save a datetime value from vb.net to a sql server.I'm using this code: Dim dt As DateTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss")
After I save this value to Database.But on sql server management studio , I see that the field's value still has the milliseconds .
why does select @@lock_timeout return -1. Shouldn't this return lock timeout in milliseconds?

It is OK that DATETIME only has a resolution of 3.33 milliseconds.

I am writing a report that Queries a SQL DB using 'SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio'. I have a field in the DB called duration and it is in milliseconds. I am trying to find an easy way to convert the format from Milliseconds to HH:MM:SS.Nearest I can get is the following for the field:
=Int( ((Fields! DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60) & ":" & Int(((((Fields!DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60) - Int(((Fields!DURATION.Value/1000) / 60) / 60)) * 60)
The output is in HH:MM. One issue with this is if the MM is say :03, it prints as :3. I lose the leading 0 so 9:03 (9hrs and 3 minutes) prints as 9:3. Where as 9:30 (9 hrs and 30 minutes) prints as 9:30 as it should.
I The requirement is to unload all columns data into csv file using bcp with pipe delimiter, but the condition is to remove milliseconds part of a datetime column.
Ex:
2014-02-19 17:12:14.967 remove .967 from data while unloading into csv.
When you view the Extended Events "Watch Live Data" is the duration in milliseconds or microseconds? I'm assuming it's milliseconds, but if you look at the timestamp difference from start to complete it doesn't add up to the duration amount? It looks like it's just the difference between the timestamps?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running into a constant issue of SQL Server modifying themillisecond part of a timestamp insert from another application. Theapplication inserts timestamp which includes a millisecond portion as astring (varchar). But when an SQL Server moves this data to anothertable (for reporting), the string is inserted in a datetime field, themillisecond field invariably changes by 1-2 milliseconds for everysingle data point inserted. Given the time critical nature of this data(to a millisecond), its almost impossible to avoid this other than toleave the data as string type. But this drives the analytical reportingfolks wild as report queries based on time criteria are getting messedup. Any ideas how to force SQL Server not to mess around with themillisecond value? Does this problem exist with SQL Server 2005 as well?

(dt_dbtimestamp)(colum_name,1, 23) when I include the period and three digits for milliseconds the package fails if I leave it out it is successfull. I need to include milliseconds for my datawarehouse project. I tried many different ways and always with failure
01/23/2007 12:23:15.234 is the date(example) derived: (dt_dbtimestamp)(column_name,1,23) fails

I need to set a variable to datetime and time to exact milliseconds in SQL server in stored procedure.
Example:
set MyUniqueNumber = 20071101190708733
ie. MyUniqueNumber contains yyyymmddhhminsecms
Please help, i tried the following:
1. SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP; ////// shows up with - & : , I want single string as in above example.2.
select cast(datepart(YYYY,getdate()) as varchar(4))+cast(datepart(mm,getdate()) as char(2))+convert(varchar(2),datepart(dd,getdate()),101 )+cast(datepart(hh,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(mi,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(ss,getdate()) as char(2))+cast(datepart(ms,getdate()) as char(4))
This one doesnot display day correctly, it should show 01 but shows 1
I need to average a column but ignore records that have a 0. Any thoughts?

When i checked the machine this morning i saw that MS DTC service was stopped and when did start it, it was good for a sec or two then it stopped auto matically i was not sure waht was goin on...
Then i checked the Eventviewer, it said the log file is full i tried out to find ms dtc log reset or increase the size but could not find out..where can i find this.
One more thing what is the purpose of DTC, i know in sql 6.5 we have everything in enterprize manager but i can't see the same either in 7.0 or 2000 is the name changed or is it linked to some other source.
Like linked server , does this depend on MS DTC..how and what is the basic purpose of this..kindly tell me what i should do now...
I got to fix it asap..big hassle..
Thanks in advance,

Hi! I'm wondering if there is a way to have the AVG() not to include the zero amount as part of the calculation. I'm looking
the field, PurchPrice and RepairCost that are used by the AVG() function...
Code:
SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase
WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style
I don't want to do this way...
Code:
SELECT Year, MakeID, ModelID, Style, AVG(PurchPrice), AVG(RepairCost)FROM vwAvgPurchase
WHERE StockDate >= (GETDATE()- 365)
and (PurchPrice > 0 or RepairCost > 0)
GROUP BY Year,MakeID,ModelID, Style
because the PurchPrice would sometime be zero and the RepairCost wouldn't be zero.
