I'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?
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

Hi, I'm inserting a datetime values into sql server 2000 from c#
SQL server table details Table nameate_test columnname datatype No int date_t DateTime
C# coding SqlConnection connectionToDatabase = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=testdb;Integrated Security=SSPI"); connectionToDatabase.Open(); DataTable dt1 = new DataTable(); dt1.Columns.Add("no",typeof(System.Int16)); dt1.Columns.Add("date_t", typeof(System.DateTime)); DataRow dr = dt1.NewRow(); dr["no"] = 1; dr["date_t"] = DateTime.Now; dt1.Rows.Add(dr); for(int i=0;i<dt1.Rows.Count;i++) { string str=dt1.Rows["no"].ToString(); DateTime dt=(DateTime)dt1.Rows["date_t"]; string insertQuery = "insert into date_test values(" + str + ",'" + dt + "')"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, connectionToDatabase); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); MessageBox.Show("saved"); } When I run the above code, data is inserted into the table The value in the date_t column is 2007-07-09 22:10:11 000.The milliseconds value is always 000 only.I need the millisecond values also in date_t column. Is there any conversion needed for millisecond values?
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
I'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 .
I want to execute a paramterized ADO insert command into a SQL Server DATETIME column without losing the milliseconds. I can accomplish this without parameters, but that isn't what I want. Any suggestions?
It is OK that DATETIME only has a resolution of 3.33 milliseconds.
i use this statement to insert into sql tablecmdInsert = New SqlCommand("insert into empbill ([deptcode],[personNo,[entrydate]] ) values(" & Val(eno.Text) & "," & Val(TextBox5.Text) & ", " & dd.Text & "')", db) cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery() dd.Text value is 22/5/2008 it come from datetime calender the entrydate field datatype is datetime i found data always 1/1/1900 00:00:00 how i enter my date
Im trying run a stored procedure, but I am getting the following message when trying to execute it.
Implicit conversion from data type datetime to int is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
which seems strange, as there is no integer going to a datetime field. Also, it does not return the value that is incorrect, nor the parameter that is failing. If there is anyway to view this in VS 2005 Team suite, please let me know.
It should also be noted that when I execute this sproc from within sql management studio, it executes fine.
This is the stored procedure im trying to execute...
in my .net app, all the datetime objects are valid dates, so I could not see why this would be generating the error that it is, so I ran the SQL Profiler, and this was the output. Again, i cannot see where im going wrong...
please note, I have seperated the output from the single slab of text, making sure I didnt remove anything...
I keep getting the following error message but I don't see what's wrong with my code

hi there, i have a calendar that i put into a string ilke this string str = Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString(); the result is dd/mm/yyyy date which is great, but for inserting into my DB (MSSQL) it needs to be a datetime field, however when i convert it Datetime dtDate = Convert.ToDateTime(str); it takes my date and adds 00:00:00 onto the end and this is not what i want! i just want the dd/mm/yyy how do i do this, it has to be simple but i have been searching for hours and cant find anything, i am using ASP.NET 2 and C# Thanks
I have a datetime field in a database which I am programmatically inserting values into. The field can be null or not null. However, I am having problems inserting NULL as part of my SQLCommand. The value is pulled from a text box (linked to a calendar extender) and when I select a value it is being inserted fine. If I just leave the box blank though, I want the field to be set to NULL. I have tried adding in ,DBNULL.Value, as part of my VALUES(…) string, but this throws an exception. I Have tried just inserting ‘’ but that also throws an exception (“The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value�), so I don’t know how I can insert this value when the field is blank? Can anyone shed some light please? Thanks
Hi, I am working with "sql server enterprise manager". How can I insert datetime(i.e. date) value in the datetime column in my database using an sql command?
Eg. If I have a table named Table1 in my database, and this table is composed of one primary key column and one datetime column (named dateofreceipt), how should the syntax look like?

Hi, I have a problem when I insert a date in a datetime field in a MSSQLServer. That's my problem: if the server is in english version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")
instead if the server is in italian version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
Is there a way to insert a date in standard way, without knowing the server version?
Using Server Explorer in VB 2005, I am manually entering data in a table in a SQL Server 2005 Express database that includes a DateTime field. I have tried every conceivable format, but no matter what I try get one of these 2 errors:
1. String was not recognized as valid DateTime
2. Operand type class; text incompatible with DateTime
I have Googled this to death, but no example which involves trying to enter the data manually, say from Server Explorer.
Formats tried include all datetime formats (mmddyy, yymmdd, using dashes or slashes, enclosing in single quotes or pound signs).
I would appreciate if someone could please give me an example that I can literally insert without error.
Hi all,I am getting this error when insert values from one table to another inthe first table the values are varchar (10). In the second they aredatetime. The format of the data is mm/dd/yyyy to be easily convertedto dates. The conversion in this case is implicit as indicated in SQLServer documentation. Here is my query:INSERT INTO Campaign (CampaignID, Name, DateStart, DateEnd, ParentID,ListID)SELECT mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id AS CampaignID,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_name AS Name,MIN(mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.start_date) AS DateStart,MIN(mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.end_date) AS DateEnd,NULL AS ParentID,NULL AS ListIDFROM mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns, mysqlfactiva.dbo.programsWHERE mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id =mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.campaign_idGROUP BY mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_name,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.descriptionUNIONSELECT program_id + 100000, program_name, start_date, end_date,campaign_id AS ParentID, NULL AS ListIDFROM mysqlfactiva.dbo.programsUNIONSELECT execution_id + 200000, execution_name, start_date,end_date, program_id + 100000 AS ParentID, NULL AS ListIDFROM mysqlfactiva.dbo.executionsUNIONSELECT wave_id + 300000, wave_name, start_date, end_date,mysqlfactiva.dbo.waves.execution_id + 200000 AS ParentID, NULL ASListIDFROM mysqlfactiva.dbo.waves, mysqlfactiva.dbo.executionsWHERE mysqlfactiva.dbo.waves.execution_id =mysqlfactiva.dbo.executions.execution_idI am referencing programs table two times. If I just select this all Iget all data I need. When doing insert I get a message:Server: Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted inan out-of-range datetime value. The statement has been terminated.If I execute just first part of the query before first union, I insertdata fine:INSERT INTO Campaign (CampaignID, Name, DateStart, DateEnd, ParentID,ListID)SELECT mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id AS CampaignID,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_name AS Name,MIN(mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.start_date) AS DateStart,MIN(mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.end_date) AS DateEnd,NULL AS ParentID,NULL AS ListIDFROM mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns, mysqlfactiva.dbo.programsWHERE mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id =mysqlfactiva.dbo.programs.campaign_idGROUP BY mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_id,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.campaign_name,mysqlfactiva.dbo.campaigns.descriptionAs soon as I use union I get the above error. This is very strangesince even when I execute the query using first union where the datescome from the same table 'programs' I get the error. Why I can insertfrom programs first time and can's second time?Any help will be appreciated.Thanks,Stan
Hi, Assume I have a table name "myTime". This table is simply only have 1 (one) DATETIME field "MyTestTime" (also serve as a primary number).Table MyTime- MyTestTime : SQLTYPE DATETIMETo insert a new row into this field, I simply wrote :SqlCommand sqlCommand = new SqlCommand("insert into MyTime values('2006-01-09')", sqlConnection); I got the value of "2006-01-09" from a textbox or other relevan control.I realize when I try to use "SELECT * FROM MyTime" statement, MSSQL server 2000 automatically convert my date value from "2006-01-09" to "01/09/2006" (from YYYY-MM-DD to MM/DD/YYYY). I don't know why this one must be converted to MM/DD/YYYY automatically (I believe this behavior is depend on some "setting option" in my MSSQL server - but I don't know which one).The challenge is :In my country, the actual date format is like German Date format (DD-MM-YYY). Well I know this is only "Customization" problem. But how insert datetime value given from sql query to a datetime variable?// Connect to database, make a query, get the datareader result, and bla bla blaDateTime aDateTime = new DateTime;aDateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(myDataReader["PostDate"].ToString());// close connectionMy question isHow can I make sure that aDateTime's day is 09 not 01. How my program know that 09 is day not month. I can't use string.split() method because it's possible that my database setting will change from "mm-dd-yyyy" to "dd-mm-yyyy"thanks
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.

why the results I receiving for Seconds is different? I get the same MS results.
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP2) - 10.50.4000.0 (X64) Jun 28 2012 08:36:30 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) (Hypervisor)
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
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.
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:
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.
