I just started having this problem since the change of clocks for end of DST.
I am running a client application that updates data in a SQL server via a web service.
The Client app is located in the Easter Time Zone (EST)
The Server is located in the Central Time Zone (CST)
I have a database in which a date/time value is entered. The Data Type for this field on the sql server is DateTime
How i have it working is, I send the Table, Fields and Values from the client app to the web service. The web service constructs the sql statement and executes it. Similarly, when I want to get data, i send the webservice the Table and Filter, and the webservice returns a DataSet.
The problem I am having, is when I send (Insert or update) a date to the WebService to update the SQL Database, it inserts/updates with the date I send. However, when I request that data, it then adjusts for the time zone difference.
Example:
Lets say it is November 11, 2007 at 12:35:10.000, (EST)
First, from the client, I insert a record with the date field as Now(). When I look in the SQL Database, I see the value is 2007-11-5 12:35:10.000 - Which is correct.
However, when I do query on that record, it returns the value of 2007-11-5 13:35:10.000 - adjusted One Hour for the time zone difference, even though if i look back at the SQL Server, it still has the original 12:35 value
Why is it adjusting for Time Zone difference only when I reqest data? How can I stop this? Or, How can I have it adjust on Insert/Update as well (I don't care if it adjust - i just need it to be the same/consistent on both ends)
Thanks
We're considering one database in the far east, using merge replication with a database in London.
There's a time difference of maybe 7 hours between the two sites - has anyone ideas on conflict resolution (thinking about the Far East updating a record at 16:00 their time, London updates the same record at 15:30 GMT - how does SQL Server know that London's time is the correct record to use?).
I need to build a reference table that will contain the time zone, offset value and DST changes for all time zones. Is there a way I can pull this from the windows server hosting sql server?
I'm trying to extract some data from a table in oracle. The oracle table stores date and time seperately in 2 different columns. I need to merge these two columns and import to sql server database.
I'm struggling with this for a quite a while and I'm not able to get it working.
I tried the oracle query something like this,
SELECT (TO_CHAR(ASOFDATE,'YYYYMMDD')||' '||TO_CHAR(ASOFTIME,'HH24:MM : SS')||':000') AS ASOFDATE
FROM TBLA
this gives me an output of 20070511 23:06:30:000
the space in MM : SS is intentional here, since without that space it appread as smiley
I'm trying to map this to datetime field in sql server 2005. It keeps failing with this error
The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data
I'm struck with error for hours now. Any pointers would be helpful.
I'm looking for a way of taking a query which returns a set of date time fields (probable maximum of 20 rows) and looping through each value to see if it exists in a separate table.
E.g.
Query 1
Select ID, Person, ProposedEvent, DayField, TimeField from MyOptions where person = 'me'
Table
Select Person, ExistingEvent, DayField, TimeField from MyTimetable where person ='me'
Loop through Query 1 and if it finds ANY matching Dayfield AND Timefield in Query/Table 2, return the ProposedEvent (just as a message, the loop could stop there), if no match a message saying all is fine can proceed to process form blah blah.
I'm essentially wanting somebody to select a bunch of events in a form, query 1 then finds all the days and times those events happen and check that none of them exist in the MyTimetable table.
I am trying to load previous days data at 3 am via a SSIS job.
The Date variable is initiated as DATEADD("dd",-1, GETDATE()) in the for loop.
Now, as this job runs at 3 am, and I set the variable as GETDATE() - 1, it excluded the data from 12 am to 3 am in the resultset as Date is set as YYYY-MM-DD 03:00:00:000 I need this to be set as YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00:000
Here is the way SQL Server 2005 Express is currently setup:
SQL server has IP of 192.168.8.200. (DMZ zone - 192.168.8.*)
Web server has IP of 192.168.8.81. (DMZ zone - 192.168.8.*)
My workstation has IP of 192.168.1.100. (Trusted zone - 192.168.1.*)
So, I've been developing a web application that was stored in the trusted zone, and this application didn't have any problem connecting to the database on *.8.200. I even have SMSE running and I can manage the database without any connection problems. I moved the web application to the web server, without changing the web.config file, and now it will not connect from the webserver.
In the web.config file, the connection string is pointed to 192.168.8.200SQLEXPRESS. I'm confused because it seems that since the SQL server and the Web server are in the same zone, there shouldn't be any connection problem.
In the Firewall, I have port 1433 open for TCP/UDP for ANY -> ANY...so I think the firewall is configured correctly?
Hi there. I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE') Can anyone out there help?
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 have passed createdDate from UI to Stored procedure.createdDate field declared with DateTime.it is having value 2014-07-01.I need to fetch records from the database based upon the created field.but Create_TM in database having value Date with timestamp.so how would i change the createdfield in stored procedure.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ByDateRange]
@Feed VARCHAR(50),
@CreatedDate DATETIME
select * from Date_table where Create_TM = @CreatedDate
I have a table named "shift" and I need to setup my query to return only data where the field "startime" = today. The problem I am running into is the starttime field it laid out like "2005-12-29 14:00:00" with different time values. I need to ruturn everything that has todays date regardless of the time value. I tried using GetDate() but that is returning data for other days as well or just data before or after the current time. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is driving me crazy! Thanks, Garrett
We have a bunch of Audit tables that contain almost exact copies of the operations tables. The audit tables also include:
AuditID - the audit action (insert, modify - old, modify - new, deleted) AuditDate - date and time of action AuditUser - User who did it...
At the end of the day I need to know for any given record what it looked like at the beginning of the day and what it looks like at the end of the day. There could have been numerous changes to the record throughout the day, those records I am not interested in. Only the first record and the last record of a give day.
I am going to be doing a lot of MIN(AuditDate) and MAX(AuditDATE) and .. WHERE AuditDate BETWEEN '10/1/2007 00:00:00' AND '10/1/2007 11:59:59' ...
Question: Whats better for performance:
1. Separating out the date and time and doing a clusterd index on the date.
2. Keeping date and time in the same column and just use a normal index.
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.
I have a table in which a date value is stored as varchar.some of these values are stored ina dd/mm/yyyy format and other values are stored in a yyyy-mm-dd format..Now I wish to retrieve some data by querying between two dates. However I need to convert the varchar date value to datetime in order to do this but since the date value is in two different formats, the following doesn't work.
select date_value from my_table where CONVERT(DATETIME, date_value, 103) between @date1 and @date2

I have an SSIS package that moves data from SQL Server to an legacy Access database. In SQL Server, there is a date/time column that I need to split into a separate date column and time column in the access database. Initially I just created a derrived column for the time and set the expression equal to the source date/time column from SQL Server. Unfortunately, that just makes the date column and time column the same having the full date/time.
What expression can I use during a derrived column transformation to assign just the date to a derrived column and just the time to another derrived column?
I get the following error when I try to navigate to a report/model/data source, stored in a Sharepoint Document Library using a Sharepoint URL based on an Extranet or Intranet zone - but it works OK using the url for the Default zone:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.SecurityZoneNotSupportedException: The specified path refers to a SharePoint zone that is not supported. The default zone path must be used.
Is this a limitation of the SQLRS-WSS3 integration or is there a workaround?
I would like to know how to do a select on a datetime field that will return to me only the Date but not the time. Please help out. Thanks. I ran through all the built in date functions and couldn't find anything for this task. I still can't fathom why there isn't a date function for this simple but a must have option. blumonde
Hi I have created a simple SQL database with four columns using Microsoft SQL Server Mangement Studio Express - (Name(varchar), Email (varchar), Comment (varchar), Datetime). The idea is for this database to hold feedback and comments from my website by connecting a form view with insert capabilities to this database. How can I configure the Datetime column in the database to automaticaly input the time and date from when the user posted the comment?
