I asked this question below, but the answer was that the conversion will take place automatically, but I can't get that to happen. I have a flat file with an 8 position field that I identify as string (and I also tried date) that is yyyymmdd and it needs to go into the database field that is datetime format. IS there something I am doing wrong with the definition of it, or do I need to add some kind of conversion, and if so, what and how would that be done. I'm a dts Sql2000 expert, but the SSIS thing is driving me crazy. I have a ton of dts' to convert and the migration tool doesn't work because there are a lot of active X scripts in them. thanks for your help. Boston Rose
Brand new to this, so please bear with me.I'm using the following code fragment to update a datetime field on a SQL Server 2005 database table:cmd.CommandText = "Update Projects Set EntryDate = " & Convert.ToDateTime(txtEntryDate.Text)cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()The result of the update operation is the the database field contains the value "1900-01-01 00:00:00:000". This probably means that I passed nulls to SQL; however, I see a valid date in the txtEntryDate field on my web form (i.e., "06/18/2007"). I also did a "Response.write" to display the txtEntryDate and it looks Okay.Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?Thanks!Using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express.
I have a web form with a text field that needs to take in as much as the user decides to type and insert it into an nvarchar(max) field in the database behind. I've tried using the new .write() method in my update statement, but it cuts off the text after a while. Is there a way to insert/update in SQL 2005 this without resorting to Bulk Insert? It bloats the transaction log and turning the logging off requires a call to sp_dboptions (or a straight-up ALTER DATABASE), which I'd like to avoid if I can.
would someone be able to shed some light as to why the date returned to my windows application does not match the date that is actually stored in the database. the products_soldDate field is assigned 1/1/1900 at the product records creation time and is updated when it's sold. when the windows application received that data and I check for it I get the following value 12/31/1899 11:00:00 PManyone has a clue as to what is happening here. It worked fine when I hosted it on a MS SQL 2000 database I just recently moved the data over to a SQL 2005 database

I'm a beginner to SQL Server 2005. I'm building a small form with a SQL2005 database. I'm creating the database and adding a field called DateInsert. When the user clicks the submit button and the form data gets written to my database, how do I automatically generate a timestamp and write it to my DateInsert Field in the database? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I am trying to insert a date in the date field define as datetime eg. create table test2 (date datetime, id integer) insert test2 values (02-05-2000,123) or say insert test2 values ('02-05-1999',123) then when I do select * the dates shown are always default. what is the correct form of inserting date into datetime field and not letting it to system default.

I am using MSSQL 2005. I have a table with the columns StopTime and StartTime. I run a query that shows the time different between StopTime and StartTime grouped by day. If the StartTime is the next day, it throws off my query. I can run a SSIS package or trigger, what ever works, I just don't know how to do it. Lets say the table looks like this (notice StartTime is the next day):

This can be run correctly from Query Analyser, but the job itself fails with the following error: Incorrect syntax near '20010830'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 170). The step failed.
How do I get this to run as a sheduled task?? All the users and the server itself run under US English if it is relevant.
I have an application that receive date input from user in the dd/mm/yyyy format. When I tried to insert the record into the SQL Server with an INSERT statement, I received an error message indicating the date index is out of range. I guess, the SQL Server is expecting the date format to be mm/dd/yyyy. Is there any way that I can input the date into SQL Server in dd/mm/yyyy format.
