I am trying to count the amount of distinct dates (not datetime) in a table row. The call below returns the amount of distinct datetimes. How do I strip off the time when doing the SQL call?

i have written a sql function which returns only number of working days (excludes holidays and Weekends) between given StartDate and EndDate.
USE [XXX]

SET ANSI_NULLS ON

I need a function or stored procedure which will return the date which is 15 working days (should exclude holidays and Weekends) prior to the given future Date? the future date should be passed as a parameter to this function or stored procedure to return the date. Example scenario: If i give date as 12/01/2015, my function or stored procedure should return the date which is 15 working days (should exclude holidays and Weekends) prior to the given date i.e 12/01/2015...In my application i have a table tblMasHolidayList where all the 2015 year holidays dates and info are stored.
How do you Write an expression to Return the date value based on the most recent date only?
Eg. Date 10-7-2015, action - done, notes - all items fixed.
Date 4-5-2016, action - not yet done, notes - buying parts
All these dates are returned based on a search parameter based on a project number. I only want the most current date and associated fields displayed.

Why the inconsistency? Datetime is lenient in this regard - I can even do set @datetime += 0.5 (although the meaning is less intuitive).
I have a large table with a datetime column and rows in 30 second intervals
everyday for about 3 months. What I want to do is
create a select statement that will return only the

Hi,
Is there any function can give me the date portion only out of Datetime fieldname.
Thanks
Is there a single function that does that instead of using 3 datepart functions and puting that all together?

Hi
What is the best practice to get the date from a smalldatetime field without the time.
The table contains 5 minute readings for energy consumption in the column period.
Now i need to get all the readings form some dates.
SELECT dbo.TBL_Data.*
FROM dbo.TBL_Data
WHERE (Period IN (CONVERT(DATETIME, '2003-12-31', 102), CONVERT(DATETIME, '2004-01-01', 102)))
this result contains only the readings for the timestamp 00:00
so how to select the whole day ?
kind regards
piet
Hi,
I have used smalldatetime datatype to store my date and time values. i want to store just the date or time but the problem is it stores both the date and time. For eg, if i add the the date 03/11/2004, it also the stores the current time automatically. so the new value will be something like 03/11/2004 10:00:00 AM where i want just 03/11/2004. further problem is even though i managed to store just the date like 03/11/2004 in the database, whole date and time shows up when i display it in my pages.
any help will be appreciated.
thanx,
Hi all
How to get just the date portion from a datetime field from sql server?
thanks a lot
I have a field that contains only a date, and a field that only contains times. If I try to add the two together, I get some meaningless date like year 2111.
The raw data looks like this
EVT_DT='2005-12-05 00:00:00'
EVT_TM='2005-12-06 13:59:00' //today's date
I wrote a function that gives me the minutes past midnight for the EVT_TM
and use a dateadd(n,myMinutesFuntion(EVT_TM),EVT_DT), but it kills the performance in the nexted cursor.
Thanks,
Carl
Is there any other way which is more simpler(shorter) to get the datepart (I don't want the time part ) of Datetime than this ?Convert(nvarchar, DATEPART(dd,[Date]) ) + '/' + Convert(nvarchar,DATEPART(mm,[Date])) + '/' + Convert(nvarchar, DATEPART(yy,[Date])) As[Date]
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a report with a StartDate and EndDate parameter. By default StartDate is the first day of the month (12/1/2006 12:00:00 AM) and EndDate is the last day of the month (01/01/2007 12:00:00 AM). At the bottom of the report, I want it to print StartDate & " through " & EndDate, but I don't want the time on there. My inital thought was to use convert as seen below
=CONVERT(varchar,Parameters!StartDate.Value,101) & " through " & CONVERT(varchar,Parameters!EndDate.Value,101)
When I preview the report I get the following error:
[BC30684] 'CONVERT' is type and cannot be used as an expression.
I really have no idea why I can't use CONVERT in a textbox expression. Does anyone haev any recommendations for getting the following in my footer?
Report Range: 12/01/2006 through 01/01/2007
OK, I know this is really simple but I can't get my statement to pull just the date from a datetime field!
Here's my query:
select *
from tblPR
where date between convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate())+1,getdate()),103)
and convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate()),dateadd(month,1,getdate())),103)
I get no errors but I get the timestamp too and I only want the date.
Where am I going wrong?!
Thanks in advance,

Hello.
In SQL server 2000 (or 2005) I have a need to query a table for rows with the max date value in a datetime column.
Currently I coded the following to give me a specific date in the column:
...where R.start_time >= '02/15/2008' and R.start_time < DateAdd(day, 1, '02/15/2008')
This gives me the rows with the exact date of 02/15/2008.
So, if I don't want to hard-code the date or pass it as a parameter how can I always get the maximum date back from the query?
Thanks.

Hello , i want to writ a query that returns ruslts for today's date only,
How to do it? i tried to filter the results using Now() function but it did`t work, any help please?
Hi Guys,
I hope someone can help, I usually just need to do simple queries, and am fine with that, but this is a bit over my head without a few pointers in the right direction.
I have a table that stores log results from pieces of hardware that contact an internet server periodically.
For simplification, this contains:
LogID
SystemID
DeviceID
ContactDateTime
Notes
Each device contacts the server about once every 5 minutes, and there are about 100 devices in 6 systems.
What I need to do is find out, for a certain date time range, things like:
1. the average time between comunication for any one device
2. the longest time between communication for any one device
3. average time between communications for all devices in a system.
We currently do this by downloading all the logs and working through them programmatically on the server, but as you can imagine, it is a very large amount of information, and it would be much more efficient if this could be done on the SQL server.
Any thoughts on how to achieve this please.
Many thanks
I have two table one call Employee and the other table call Target Ratio. They are related via FK EmployeeID

TargetRatioID EmployeeID EffectiveDate Ratio

My question is how can I query tblTargetRatio table to return correct record for the following cases:
1 EmployeeID = 1 and Date = 03/12/2012 (Expecting Ratio = 8)
2 EmployeeID = 1 and Date = 10/10/2012 (Expecting Ratio = 7)
3 EmployeeID = 1 and Date = 08/12/2012 (Expecting Ratio = 5)
Hi,
I created this stored procedure to add 90 days to the current date, and return the new date:
CREATE PROCEDURE Get90Days
AS
SELECT DATEADD(day, 90, current_timestamp) AS "RETURNDAYS"
The procedure above returns this result:
2006-09-29 07:31:14.477
I need this procedure to return the date, only, like this:
09-29-2006
I tried using the convert switch to reformat the result to the date only, but have not been successful.
What does this stored procedure need to look like to return just the date, like this:
09-29-2006
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Bill

It will show correctly in the query builder test but when you load it up in the gridview it will show the date AND 12:00:00AM for every one of the dates

any suggestions?
