I am running SQL Server on Windows 2000 Server Edition and have had a problem with the date format in some of the tables. Specifically all of the days and the months have swapped around where they logically can. The original data was all saved as dd/mm/yy but has now all swapped over to mm/dd/yy - unless of course it will not form a logical date.
The only thing which has happened which i can put this down to is that the server has just had service pack 3 installed on it. Has anyone ever encountered this before and if so is there an easy way to fix it?
E.g, i have a store procedure. The start date is long date (4/15/2007 3:00pm). i want to select the start date with a particular date (short date format 4/15/2006). Thanks in advance.
I am trying get my VB6 application to insert a record into a table (SQL Express) which has a datetime column but it would not process if the data format is differ to *American Date format*.
The date() function in VB returns 15/11/2006 which is in Australian Date format (DD/MM/YYYY) according to my setting in "Reginal and Lanuage Option-> Locale 0> English (Australia)" setting.
I get the following error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Server KITSQLEXPRESS, Line 1 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value. The statement has been terminated.
My computer's locale is set to English (Australia) and I expect the datetime format would follow what is set in system locale
I've read an article somewhere on the net about how SQL 2005 eliminate the confusion of date conversion when read/write datetime records into a table...but it seems to me that it is still as in-flexible as MS Access
Is there a setting in the database that takes care of it?
I have a field 'LastName' in a SQL 2000 table 'customers' that is populated with all our customer's full names in this order:
Smith John M
I need to flip the information around so that it can be exported into a CSV file for an automated email notification program to notify them their items are in and having it in first, last, MI format is much more professional.
I've been playing with charindex and stuff routines and am spinning my wheels. Is there a canned routine for something like this - this must have been done a hundreed times out there in SQL somewhere (or it's so easy to do that everyone (but me) just cranks it from scratch).
I have a column date in my database which I should send it to Oracle database. The Date format in Oracle is number. I don’t know how should I convert the date to that format? Example : SQL FormatOracle Format 02/16/05 105046

A server with SQL 2005 sp2, Reporting Services and Sharepoint services (ver 3.0) (in integrated mode) gives an odd error. When viewing a Reporting Services report with a Date Time Picker, the date chosen is wrong. The preferred setting is Danish with the date format dd-mm-yyyy. The date picker shows the months in Danish but when selecting a date, and clicking on the Apply-button, the date reformats to US (mm-dd-yyyy).
Example: When choosing 5th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows in the picker, 9th of May 2007. When choosing 26th of September 2007 and clicking apply, it shows, again in US format, the RIGHT date but adds a timestamp 12:00 AM? in the end, making further enquiries to fail.
The report itself receives the right date and shows correctly. The only case it fails is, when the time stamp appears.
The server is a 32-bit one with 4 GB RAM. A testserver with identical collation on the Reportserver database cannot recreate the error. The site containing the reports has been set to Danish in the regional settings. To Reinstall is not an option.
The test report has no database connection whatsoever.
When setting the site to US, the timestamp wont appear at all.
The server has been restarted and the installation procedure was of the simple kind. No special tweaks at all.
I am having report parameter end date I am showing the default value "5/21/2007 11:59:59 PM" in the end date paramter. And also I want to show date time format "(MM/DD/YYYY HH:MMS)" in the right hand side of the parameter. How to do this?
I am using reporting services, when I go to view my report in Report Manager (web browser is IE7), I choose a date from a date picker control, and the date that populates the date field is in US format mm/dd/yyyy, however in my regional settings, although I have English(United States) I have altered my short date format to be dd/mm/yyyy.
Currently my report will display an error saying the date is an invalid format if I pick a date that violates the mm/dd/yyyy format. I want it to display the date format that I have defined in my regional settings, without modifying the 'Language Preference' settings for IE.
The report properties has =User!Language for the 'Language' property.

I need to do the following and am hoping someone can help me out. I have C#(asp.net app) that will call a stored procedure. The C# will pass in a date to thestored procedure. The date is in the format YY/MM/DD. Once inside of the stored procedure, the datepassed into the stored proc needs to be compared to todays date. Todays date must be determined inthe SQL. So basically here is my pseudo code for what I am trying to accomplish. Basically I just am afterthe comparison of the two values: If @BeginDate < TodaysDate The difficult part is how to obtain the value for "TodaysDate" Taking into consideration that "TodaysDate" should probably be in the format of YY/MM/DD considering that is how the date it is to be compared with is being passed in. Can someone please code this out for me in Microsoft SQL. I would be forever grateful.

I have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.

Below is my latest effort which returns the error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'

Select GLBATCH.AccountingDate, convert(GLBATCH.AccountingDate as date),101) AS New_Accounting_Date from GLBATCH

When you put data int a MS SQL database via php, dependign on the SQL Server version you are using, the date format needs to be different. Eg a German Server wouldn't accept something like yyyy.mm.dd, but dd.mm.yyyy would work fine here. But dd.mm.yyyy isn't working on an English version of an MS SQL Server. I wonder if there is one format, that EVERY MS SQL Server understands?
Can someone help me out with the following problem. While storing date in the SQL server it has its own format of storing(the first 3 digit denotin the format of display). Now if i need to convert this into Date format how do i do it???? Please note the coloum field is of the datatype LOCAL_TIME and this needs to be converted in to DATE for generating reports. I did try using CAST and CONVERT but could not succeed.
The field stores values of the form 1031826600 - i guess the seven digits from the end denote number of secs lapsed since Jan 1 1970.
