Hi,
I was wondering how you perform a select statement based on a specific date that will show all the records no matter which times belong to the specific date.
I have been having trouble with this one when using a single date, I think this is because of the time property as no records are displayed.
Thanks for any help.
I have a stored procedure that is suppose to get all records that have an expiration date of today. My where clause is as follows:
Round2ExpDate <= getdate()
This is not working because of the time factore. What is the best way to truncate the time for each date? All recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I have soma ado.net code that inserts 7 parameters in a database ( a date, 6 integers).
I also use a self incrementing ID but the date is set as primary key because for each series of 6 numbers of a certain date there may only be 1 entry. Moreover only 1 entry of 6 integers is possible for 2 days of the week, (tue and fr).
I manage to insert a row of data in the database, where the date is set as smalldatetime and displays as follows: 1/05/2007 0:00:00 in the table.
I want to retrieve the series of numbers for a certain date that has been entered (without taking in account the hours and seconds).
A where clause seems to be needed but I don’t know the syntax or don’t find the right function
I use the following code to insert the row :
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@Date", SqlDbType.DateTime, 40, "LDate"));
command.Parameters[6].Value = DateTime.Today.ToString();
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
and the following code to get the row back (to put in arraylist):
“SELECT C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 FROM Series WHERE (LDate = Today())�
WHERE LDate = '" + DateTime.Today.ToString() + "'"
Which is the correct syntax? Is there a better way to insert and select based on the date?
I don’t get any error messages and the code executes fine but I only get an empty datatable in my dataset (the table isn’t looped for rows I noticed while debugging).
Today’s date is in the database but isn’t found by my tsql code I think.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am trying to write a stored procedure that will select information from a SQL table based on a specific time.
For example I have a name field and a time field, I want to return just the names that were created between a specific time frame. ex between 3pm and 4pm.
Any thoughts?
Here's my current SQL:
SELECT
RN_TEST_ID AS 'Test ID',
MAX(RN_EXECUTION_DATE) AS 'Last Execution Date',
MAX(RN_EXECUTION_TIME) AS 'Execution Time',
RN_DURATION AS 'Run Duration'
FROM RUN
[code]....
Here's a sample of data returned:
Test IDLast Execution DateExecution TimeRun Duration
86722/9/2015 0:0012:08:16180
86822/9/2015 0:0011:29:06181
86842/9/2015 0:0008:29:17119
105252/3/2015 0:0019:03:4089
105252/3/2015 0:0019:10:13305
106682/3/2015 0:0018:55:43103
106682/6/2015 0:0018:10:50123
114572/3/2015 0:0011:40:0726
What I need are two things:
1. The query should only return one record for each test id
2. The record returned should be the most recent. By most recent I mean the RN_EXECUTION_DATE and RN_EXECUTION_TIME of the returned row should be the most recent in time.
For example, in the sample data there are multiple rows with the same test id (for example 10668 and 10525. The 10525 is even more problematic since its execution date is the same for both rows returned - the execution times differ. Again, I want one record per test id and that record should be the most recent in time.
I have a table that has a DateTime column which uses a DataTimedatatype. How do I retrieve a range of records based on the month andyear using ms sql?Eugene Anthony*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***
View 4 Replies View RelatedOK. I have this query, works on another box fine.
SELECT *
FROM bookkeep RIGHT OUTER JOIN
acraccts ON LEFT(bookkeep.accnum, 9) = acraccts.p_accnum
WHERE (bookkeep.busdate = '03/09/10') AND (bookkeep.tradetype = 'S')
on my sql box, if i run it, i get no data.
i figured out that if i change the where clause to (bookkeep.busdate='2003/09/10') it works
OR
if i simply put SET DATEFORMAT YMD on the first line before the SELECT * that it also works.
my problem is the basic query is hard coded and i really can't change it.
is there a global sql server setting that will make my sql 2000 sp3 box recognize '30/09/10' as 2003/09/10?
So let's say I have a table Orders with columns: Order# and ReceiptDate. Order#'s may be duplicated (Could have same Order# with different ReceiptDate). I want to select Order#'s that go back 6 months from the last ReceiptDate for each Order#.
I can't just do something like:
SELECT *
FROM Orders
WHERE ReceiptDate >= add_months(date,-6)
because there could be Order#'s whose last ReceiptDate was earlier than 6 months ago. I want to capture all of the instances of each Order# going back 6 months from each last ReceiptDate relative to each Order#.
I am trying to accomplish the following.
There are two tables. the second one is a table that contains fields based on which the exclusion logic has to be written. It has 5 fields and there may be data in all of them or only in some of them.
The first and second table have one field in common - the Account number.(ACCT_NUM)
the exclusion is based in steps..
1) if it has all the fields in the second table for that account number, then compare all of them..
2) if only 4 of them are present,compare and check for null for the rest
3) if only 3 of them are present,compare and check for null for the rest
4) if only 2 of them are present,compare and check for null for the rest.
how do i do this... pls suggest
Thanks
I have a client data which has the candidate id, a start date which will have only the date in varchar format and a time value associated to that date in varchar format in a seperate column.
To give a brief explanation about the data a candidate will come to study center at any time point in a day for example 10:00 AM on 20-10-2014. The start date will be 20-10-2014 and from 10:00 AM he will have test based on the time point. So if the time point is 2 HR, then at 12:00 PM he will have a test. If the time point is 8 HR, it will get added with 10:00 AM and based on this he will have the test at 06:00 PM. When the timepoint reaches 00:00 the start date needs to be the next date instead of 20-10-2014.
The start date needs to be appended with the time value such that when it crosses over the time 00:00, the start date needs to get increased by 1 ie the next day. I have added the start date to the time by using the code below
CAST(STARTDATE as datetime) + CAST(CAST(STUFF([TIME],3,0,':') as time(0)) as datetime) as [EXPECTEDDATETIME]
By this above code i have created the expected datetime however
I will not be able to hardcode the value due to dynamic data. I tried to apply >= and < to the time value something like
case when MyTime >= '00:00' and MyTime < '08:10' the Dateadd(day, 1, date)
This works perfect but my concern is that I cannot put the value 08:10 because it will not a constant value for all rows.
I have provided a screenshot of my data and a expected date column for reference.
Candidate StartDateStartTimeExpected DateTime Timepoint

Hello, I would like to exclude the time period after 5.30pm and before 8.30am in my results. The time is in a 13 digit timestamp format which is the same as a standard unix timestamp with 3 digits which are microseconds.
I used:
dataadd(ss, TTIME/1000, '1970-01-01')AS time
to create a column with a readable time in it.
Here is a screenshot: http://www.abtecnet.com/timescreenshot.jpg
Can anyone help me with this. Thanks very much.

I have already seen stored procedures that can calculate a difference in dates, excluding the weekends. Any extension of such a SQL query to exclude not only weekends, but other dates as well. We have a table of "holidays" (not necessarily standard holidays), and I am wondering if there is a way to exclude them from the calculation.

Hi all,
I have created a report in SSRS 2005 which is being viewed by users from different Time Zones.
I have a dataset which has a field of type datetime (UTC). Now I would like to display this Date according to the User Time Zone.
For example if the date is August 07, 2007 10:00 AM UTC,
then I would like to display it as August 07, 2007 03:30 PM IST if the user Time Zone is IST.
Similarly for other Time Zones it should display the time accordingly.
Is this possible in SSRS 2005?
Any pointers will be usefull...
Thanks in advance

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.

Okay, let's see if I can explain this one. I am summing multiple lines of data from a labor detail table, by status. Using this query
SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor, SUM(LD.WrittenOff) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname
ORDER BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1
I get these results...

Okay, so now, of coarse, I want to change everything. I only want to return rows if there is a value > 0 in either Held Labor or TBWrittenOffLabor. Otherwise, no row return.
Here's what I tried, but it didn't work out because it still returns rows, it just zero's out the values for written off labor.
SELECT EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname, SUM(LD.Held) AS HELDLABOR, SUM(LD.TBWRittenOff) as TBWrittenOffLabor,
SUM(CASE WHEN LD.HELD > '0' THEN LD.WrittenOff ELSE '0' END) AS WRITTENOFFLABOR
FROM PR P INNER JOIN
(SELECT WBS1, WBS2, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'h' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS Held, SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'w' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS TBWrittenOff,
SUM(CASE WHEN BillStatus = 'x' THEN Billext ELSE 0 END) AS WrittenOff
FROM LD
WHERE BillSTatus IN ('x','h', 'w')
GROUP BY WBS1, WBS2) LD ON p.WBS1 = ld.wbs1 AND P.WBS2 = LD.WBS2 INNER JOIN
EM ON p.ProjMgr = EM.Employee
WHERE p.Status IN ('a', 'i') AND P.ChargeType = 'r'
GROUP BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1, LD.WBS2, P.Longname
ORDER BY EM.Lastname, LD.WBS1

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 have inherited a query which currently returns multiple instances of each work order because of the joined tables. The code is here and I've detailed the criteria needed below but need the best way to accomplish this:
Select h.worknumber, h.itemcode, h.descr, h.task_descr, h.qty, h.itemised,
h.serialnum, h.manufacturer, h.model_id, h.depot, h.date_in, h.date_approved,
h.est_complete_date, h.actual_complete_date, h.meterstart, h.meterstop,
h.custnum, h.name cust_name, h.addr1, h.addr2, h.town, h.county, h.postcode,
h.country_id, h.contact, h.sitename, h.siteaddr1, h.siteaddr2, h.sitetown,
[Code] ....
Each work order should only be returned once, and with the following additional criteria:
1. i.meter - this should return only the lowest number from that file.
2. sm.next_calendar_date - this should return only the most recent date out of those selected for the certificates on this piece of equipment
3. wh.meterstop as [Last Service Hours],
wh.date_created as [Last Service] - this should return the number from wh.meterstop at the most recent wh.date_created for that piece of equipment.
This is a simple one, and I know that it has to be fairly common, but I just can't figure out an elegant way to do it. I have a table with the following fields:
OrderID (FK, not unique)
InstallationDate (Datetime)
CreateDtTm (Datetime)
There is no PK or Unique ID on this table, though an combo of OrderID and CreateDtTm would ostensibly be a unique identifier.
For each OrderID, I need to pull the InstallationDate that was created most recently (based on CreateDtTm). Here's what I've got so far, and it works, but man is it ugly:
SELECT a.OrderID, InstallationDate
FROM ScheduleDateLog a
INNER JOIN
(SELECT OrderID, max(convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)) as TopRecord
FROM ScheduleDateLog GROUP BY OrderID) as b
ON convert(varchar(10),CreateDtTm,102)+'||' +convert(varchar(10), InstallationDate,102)=b.TopRecord
AND a.OrderID = b.OrderID
I need to list all the records in Table2 which don't have matching field values in Table1.
This the the exact opposite of what I need:
SELECT DISTINCT
Field1,
Field2,
Field3,
Field4,
Field5
FROM
[Table1]
WHERE EXISTS(
SELECT DISTINCT
FieldA,
FieldB,
FieldC,
FieldD,
FieldE
FROM
[Table2]
)
The above seems to give me all records in Table1 in which the five fields match the five fields specified in Table2. What does not show up is the test record I put in Table2 which is not in Table1.
What I need, however, is the exact opposite.
I tried the above using NOT EXISTS but I get no records at all.
How do do this?

Hi all -
is there a way to process a file x records at a time?
We have a table that I need to append to an existing table. The date columns are currently in char but must be converted to datetime for the existing table. The problem is I have bad data. There are 3 million rows where the date field isn't valid for SQL's datetime format. Since this is the data I have, I have to work with it. I would like for SQL to just insert a null if it comes upon a bad date. Currently when it encounters a field that isn't valid, it stops the process with an error.
I have tried to go around it below, but there is still something "hanging" I would like to be able just to insert one million rows at a time and if it errors, then I can look at the next million, find the error, fix it and continue on.
Any suggestions? Or if you have a better idea all together I would love to see it.

Eg. Date 10-7-2015, action - done, notes - all items fixed.

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.
