Hello, I have an issue where I need to format the way my times are stored in my table to the way I can compare those times with the current time given by:
select right(convert(varchar,getdate(),100),7)
this provides a result like: 2:10PM
But my times are stored like: 2:10 P.M.
so, Im thinking i need to format the saved time in order to compare it to the current time so I can do the following select:
I'm new to SSRS (We are using SQL 2014) and have been asked to create a report from SharePoint list data. One of the columns in my list contains XML data. I need to pull three different fields from this XML. I see lots on using xml as a datasource but I'm using a SharePoint list as my datasource. Before I get too far down the wrong road I thought I'd ask here if there was a built in means of parsing XML or if I should look at using the Text Function under Common Functions in the Epression builder?
I have values in my database that I'd like to display as $xxx,xxx.xx. Some of these values use the money datatype and others use float.
I'm building a string in a stored procedure that is eventually passed to Visual Basic. I want to format these values in the above format in the string that is passed. I've searched all through MSN and I couldn't find anything related to VB's FORMAT function in SQL Server.
Does Transact-SQL have any functions that could format these values for me?
Helo All - I would greatly appreciate some help formatting the values for my sproc. I need to call a sproc and pass it the values StartTime and EndTime from a web form. The web form uses 3 DDLs for the Start Hour, Start Minute and Start AM/PM as well as 3 DDLs for the End Hour, End Minute and End AM/PM. When I call the sproc, I get the error: SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM. Here is the sample column data: 2:06 PM which is stored as nvarchar in the sql db Here is the Sub and the Sproc, Sub Protected Sub btnDateQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDateQuery.Click pnlFiltered.Visible = True pnlShowAll.Visible = FalseDim StartTime As DateTime Dim EndTime As DateTimeStartTime = ddlFromHour.SelectedValue + ":" + ddlFromMinute.SelectedValue + ":" + "00 " + ddlFromAMPM.SelectedValue EndTime = ddlToHour.SelectedValue + ":" + ddlToMinute.SelectedValue + ":" + "00 " + ddlToAMPM.SelectedValueStartTime = CDate("2:07:00 AM") EndTime = CDate("2:07:00 AM")Dim Query_TA As New dalDataFeedsdefsTableAdapters.spFilterExpectedEndTimeTableAdapterDim returncode As Integer = 0 Query_TA.GetExpectedEndTimeData(StartTime, EndTime) Dim Select_TA As New dalDataFeedsdefsTableAdapters.spDynamic_Basics_TblTableAdapterDim dv As New DataView Try dv = Query_TA.GetExpectedEndTimeData(StartTime, EndTime).DefaultView()Catch ex As Exception Response.Write(StartTime + " - " + EndTime) End TryWith DataFeedGridView .DataSource = dv .DataBind() End With End Sub SPROC ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[spFilterExpectedEndTime] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @StartTime datetime,@EndTime datetime AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements.

Does anyone know if .NET 2.0, 3.0, or 3.5 has a method for converting quoted strings used in INSERT INTO MyTable (Field1, Field2) VALUES(1, 'SomeTestWithApostrophes')
I can write my own routine but I was hoping .NET framework would have something I could use, in the System.Data.SqlClient perhaps??
Ultimate would be a "SQLSafe" method that will convert strings into SQL safe strings.
Hi,I need a way of changing the following SQL statement so that the dates are without the hh:mm:ss tt:"Select DISTINCT([StartDate]) From [Events]"How can this be done?Thanks,Curt.
The above script works OK on a one-off basis but....
Basically, organisation_number_2 (i.e. 19219) always stays the same. However, I need to update organisation_number_1 several times (i.e. 2311 will then change to 2312, 2313, 2314 etc.).
Rather than pasting the script several hundred times and changing the organisation_number_1 value each time, is there a quick way to encompass all the organisation_number_1 values in one go?
I've tried e.g. VALUES (2311,2312), 19219, 'BRAN' etc. but this doesn't seem to work.
I have a table called WorkItem. It models a chunk of work done duringa working day.It has two columns that I'm interested in:Start (smalldatetime) - the TIME the work block is begunDuration (int) - the duration in minutes of the work block.In another table called OvertimeRates I have information about ratemultipliers and a column that tells me the TIME that the ratemultiplier kicks in.e.g.OTRateBegins (smalldatetime)In terms of calculating whether a particular work block starts afterthe OTRateBegins, I could (I presume) do something like:If CONVERT(smalldatetime, Start, 108) > CONVERT(smalldatetime,OTRateBegins, 108)However, would I be better off using DATEPART functions to get the hourand minute parts of both the Start and OTRateBegins, and using theminstead? For some reason, (probably paranoia!), I am suspicious of theCONVERT function.Apologies for not posting DDL, but I felt that the situation didn'treally warrant it.ThanksEdward
When Access date/time data is transformed to SQL7, it seems to work fine as long as the data contains date information. But, if the data is time only, there is the 2-day diff. coming out of Access.
For date/time data in Access, day 0 is 12/30/1899--for SQL7 it is 1/1/1900.
So, it appears that DTS first converts Access date/time data to a date formatted string and then sends to SQL. This will only be a problem for times....8:00 AM is stored to SQL as 8:00 AM on 12/30/1899, not 1/1/1900. If I try to calculate hours or minutes from midnight (date/time 0) I get a negative number.
Has anyone else encountered this? I guess my choice is to modify DTS to correct for the dates or to run an update once the data is moved.
I AM HAVING A TABLE WHICH HAS INCREMENTAL COLUMNS,WHERE COLUMNS GETS ADDED EVERY MONTH TO THE TABLE AND THE TABLE THEN CONTAINS PREVIOUS MONTH AND PRESENT MONTH DATA ABOUT CUSTOMERS ,DETAILS AND TRANSACTIONS. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS DATA IS ,IF THE CUSTOMER IS NEW ,THEN IN PREVIOUS MONTHS HIS INFORMATION IS NULL,WHICH HAVE TO BE CODED HAS "NOT PRESENT".
NOW, HOW DO WE CONVERT ALL THE PREVIOUS COLUMNS FOR A PARTICULAR CUSTOMER HAS NULL AT THE SAME TIME ?.
HERE IS HOW THE PROC WRITTENED FOR IT GOES :-
DROP PROCEDURE DE_NAT CREATE PROCEDURE DE_NAT AS BEGIN DECLARE @MONMIN1 NVARCHAR(100),MON NVARCHAR(100),@YEAR NVARCHAR(100) , @MONYEAR NVARCHAR(100) SET @MONMIN1 = DATENAME((MONTH),DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GETDATE())) SET @MON = MONTH(GETDATE()) SET @YEAR = YEAR(GETDATE()) SET @MONYEAR = @MON + @YEAR
EXEC('select A.CUSTOMERS,B.*,CAST(A.RFM_40D AS FLOAT) AS R40 INTO TSD_' + @MONYEAR + ' from TSD_20 A LEFT OUTER JOIN SD20 ' + @MONMIN1 + ' B ON A.CUSTOMERS = B.CUSTOMER') END
THIS PROC JUST ADDS THE PRESENT MONTHS DATA TILL LAST MONTHS DATA.
BUT IF A CUSTOMER IS NEW, THEN HOW DO I REPLACE THE NULL VALUES FOR THE PREVIOUS DATA TO 'NOT PRESENT'
FOR EG :- IF THERE IS A NEW CUSTOMER ,HOW DO WE CHANGE :-
NOW, AS YOU CAN SEE, THAT FOR CUSTOMERS = '101023'. THE COLUMN DFGHHGFD IS, THIS MONTHS DATA , I WANT TO CHANGE ALL NULL VALUES PRESIDING IT AS "INACTIVE"
CAN I CHANGE , ALL COLUMNS FROM NULL TO "INACTIVE" , AT THE SAME TIME. ?
AS NEXT MONTH, AGAIN THE COLUMNS IS GONNA INCREASE WHICH WILL AGAIN CAUSE A PROBLEM .
PLS TELL ME A METHOD , SO THAT I CAN DO THE NEEDFUL.
Here is the sample data nType dCDServerTime 02006-05-12 03:50:46.770 12006-05-12 04:00:59.153 962006-05-12 04:01:23.827 962006-05-12 04:16:01.297 142006-05-15 05:02:46.857 202006-06-23 03:23:36.970
I am trying to find the time diff between dCDServerTime of the "first" ntype = 1 and the "first" ntype = 96. There can be any number of rows with 1 and 96 but rows with 1 always come before those with 96.
I tried by putting a subset of the above result into a table variable but don't seem to get ahead without declaring more variables.
declare @t table (Type int, ServerTime datetime) insert into @t select top 1 nType,dCDServerTime from tblEvent where nGlobalCaseID = 11901643 and nType = 1 UNION select top 1 nType,dCDServerTime from tblEvent where nGlobalCaseID = 11901643 and nType = 96 select * from @t
Hi - I am a bit of an amatuer, but I am trying to use the EMS data Pump to get all of the data out of an Interbase 6 DB into an MSDE DB. I have managed to instal an Interbase ODBC driver, and I ca connect to it and then automatically create the tables in my MSDE DB, but I get an error stating that there cannot be multiple Timestamp columns in the MSDE databse. Is this true ?
hi all, In sql server 2005 i had created 2 tables,table 1 and table 2. Here is the detail of the table. table 1: tid--> int,identity,primary key tname-->varchar(200) table 2: sid-->int,identity,primary key tid-->fk (this tid is set as foreign key for the tid in table1) now when i'm inserting values into tname i have to insert the value of tid from table 1 into the tid of table 2 both at the same time. any one know how this is possible? if so please send me the code.. pls help me.. thanks swapna
As a DBA, I am working on a project where an ETL process(SSIS) takes a long time to aggregate and process the raw data.
I figured out few things where the package selects the data from my biggest 200 GB unpartitioned table which has a datekey column but the package converts its each row to an integer value leading to massive scans and high CPU.
Example: the package passed two values 20140714 and 4 which means it wants to grab data from my biggest table which belongs between 20140714 04:00:00 and 20140714 05:00:00.
It leads to massive implicit conversions and I am trying to change this.
To minimize the number of changes, what I am trying to do is to convert 20140714 and 4 to a datetime format variable.
Select Convert(DATETIME, LEFT(20170714, 8)) which gives me a date value but I am stuck at appending time(HH:00:00) to it.
As the Microsoft Time Series algorithm implementation is based upon the Autoregressive Tree approach described in:
C. Meek, D. M. Chickering, D. Heckerman. Autoregressive Tree Models for Time-Series Analysis. In Proc. 2nd Intl. SIAM Conf. on Data Mining, 2002 (SDM-02). SIAM, pp. 229 €“ 244. http://www.siam.org/meetings/sdm02/proceedings/sdm02-14.pdf.
The model estimated is refererred to as an instance of "... autoregressive tree models of length p, denoted ART(p). An ART(p) model is an ART model in which each leaf node of the decision tree contains an AR(p) model, and the split variables for the decision tree are chosen from among the previous p variables in the time series..." (see the last paragraph of p. 2 of the paper).
What is the value of "p" used in the Microsoft Time Series implementation -- specifically, how many previous time series variables are used in estimating the model? It doesn't appear that this value can be specified in the algorithm parameters -- is that correct?
Hi All, I have developed few charts - line graphs - and have checked the Numeric or time-scale values on the X-Axis. Now, when the graphs come out, they appear to have two datasets. For example, if the X axis has values from 1st march to 14th March, then there will be a line from 1st March to 14th March, but additionally there will be another one, pointing to different datapoint, and again starts from 1st March and ends at 14th March. Whereas I think it is because of the Numeric or time-scale values selection, but I am not sure. Also, is there a particular way to interpret such graphs??
Thanks a lot, I would have loved to give a picture, but I think I cannot give it.. I did not find an option..
I am trying to pull the records which are being affected i.e, comparing the values and if not same then populating the record.
I am using the below condition in where clause however i am getting runt time error as "Conversion failure when converting date and/or time from character string"
Condition in Where clause:
cast(isNull(tab1.Col1,'') as datetime) <> cast(isNull(tab2.col1,'') as datetime)Â
I am having problems displaying time values in my SSRS report. below is info. Tried expressions still does not work. I want the values to show what in the SQL Server table 00:00:00.82. I tried stored proc still does not work.
SQL Server table time value shown in milliseconds: 00:00:00.82
I have a line chart which works great except when the x axis displays duplicate months. I have tried format codes of MM-YYYY and MMM and have the "numeric or time-scale values" checkbox checked. The data displays fine but the X axis in the case of the MMM format code displays as:
Sep Oct Oct Nov Nov
leaving the user to wonder where exactly does October and November start...
I've googled around but don't see off-hand what I am doing wrong. I am display 3 simultaneous lines if that matters...
I am trying to process an XML document that contains the attribute 'from_x'. However an openxml query can't seem to find any column with a '_x' suffix. For example if I were to execute the following fragment:
What is parsing?? can someone give me an example please?? this what I got from BOL
Returns the specified part of an object name. Parts of an object that can be retrieved are the object name, owner name, database name, and server name.
I am new to SQL server and was wondering if someone can help me with this one. Thanks My table holds 2 columns (SECTOR and TERM) with following example values
SECTOR TERM Hybrid 6/18 Hybrid 9/19 Hybrid 10/17 Hybrid 3/13
I would like to find out the rows where my values from SECTOR before '/' does not equal TERM
Can you parse a SQL field? Let's say, FULLNAME field got a TEXT datatype with the following data: <firstname>Norm</firstname><lastname>bercasio</lastname><Color>blue</color>then using a select statement, parse the field to find the lastname then write it to another field called LASTNAME on the same table, same rowID. Can you send a select statement how it can be done? I am using SQL 2003 or 2005. thank you so much.
I'm using a SQL selection to fill a DataGrid. One of the fields I have is called diagnosis. This field in the database can contain multiple diagnosis. But I use a set of characters to divide each diagnosis. Example : Sick!@#$%Hurt!@#$%Ill!@#$% My problem is this is how it looks in my Data Grid. Can someone tell me how to parse out each diagnosis.
