I'm getting error:
String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.
my insert parameter:
<asp:Parameter Name="LastModified" Type="DateTime" DefaultValue= "<%=DateTime.Now.ToString() %>"
my insert command:
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [Product] ([Enabled], [ProductCode], [ProductName], [ProductAlias], [CarrierId], [DfltPlanId], [DoubleRating], [DoubleRateProductId], [ConnCharges], [StartDate], [EndDate], [Contracted], [BaseProductId], [LastModified], [LastUser]) VALUES (@Enabled, @ProductCode, @ProductName, @ProductAlias, @CarrierId, @DfltPlanId, @DoubleRating, @DoubleRateProductId, @ConnCharges, @StartDate, @EndDate, @Contracted, @BaseProductId, @LastModified, @LastUser)"
LastModified is a datetime field.

I am inserting date and time data into a SQL Server 2012 Express table from an application. The application is providing the date and time as a string data type. Is there a TSQL way to convert the date and time string to an SQL datetime date type? I want to do the conversion, because SQL displays an error due to the
My date and time string from the application looks like : 3/11/2014 12:57:57 PM

I accidently put char instead of datetime in the Sql Server DateCreated
dataType. Is there any way that now I can change. I guess even if I
change I cannot get the time and date in a format that I want since
they are in Char datatype.

I can't get a varchar to datetime conversion to work. The varchar data is in the form yyyymmddhhmi
I tried convert(datetime, '200508310926')
also tried cast('200508310926' as datetime) both have error "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string"
Is there a format code that needs to be there? If so, I can't figure out what it should be.
I eventually need to convert these to dates and compare them to getdate, example:
...where convert(datetime, dtfield) >= getdate()-1

Thanks in adance
Platform: SQL 2000
A SQL table has a field named "pay-day" with Char(8) data type.
I tried to change its data type to datetime but only with an error message like this. I did right-click the table and tried to modify a data type.
- Unable to modify table.
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.

In a column I have some values for part names. The 6th character tellsyou where the part came from, and this is the same scheme for everysingle part in the database.If I want to do something like return the basic name of a given part,without the factory identifier character, I need to replace thatcharacter with a '_' character. (So for instance '11256CA' and'11265AA' and '11256MA' would all just get turned into '11256_A' andonly one row would be returned in the SELECT DISTINCT statement)I know how to replace an instance of a given character using replace(),but how can I alter a specific character in a string if all I know isthe index of the character within the string?TIA,-CS

I need to change a string in a .txt file using .NET, the .NET code will be executed by an SSIS package and the file needs to be changed so it can be used by another process which looks at that specific line (line 9 value: 'set ASOF=20080424'), for that specific date string.
What method in .NET can I use to perform this task? Should be very simple, correct?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Now that I have figured out how to connect to a foxpro database...
Could anyone tell me how to change the connection string on the fly?
I would like to make it possible, from the command line (using dtexec) to specify a portion of the connection string.... incorportate this portion into the connection string and then instruct the connection manager to use this connection...
For example I have a number of foxpro databases to import, they will be place in a directory structure like this:
TopLevel
TopLevelNewYork ransactions.dbf
TopLevelLondon ransactions.dbf
TopLevelSydney ransactions.dbf
I'd like the user to be able to specify which city's files to load each time the package is run..
dtexec /f MyPackage /set Package.Variables[User::THECITY].Properties[Value];"London"
And when the package starts the THECITY variable would take the value "London"
But I'm not sure how to then affect the connection string property of the connection manager... there seems to be no way to specify that it take its connection string property from an expression...
So I'm lookin for some way which would cause the Connection String property of the coneection manager to become:
Driver={Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver};sourcedb=d:TopLevelLondon;sourcetype=DBF;exclusive=No;backgroundfetch=Yes;collate=Machine;
Jsut to recap, the provider for this connection manager
is a ".Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider" which I've been forced to use becasue the OLEDb provider for Foxpro has been rendered useless by service pack 1
Thanks in advance

I basic question but can someone help.
I have a SELECT statement, the result of which populates a
datagrid. The first column has consecutive dates in it and I want
to hyperlink each date to a seperate Javascript function (the
Javascript is created on the fly and is unique for each date). I
need a different function name for each function and so tried the date
but "/" is not allowed in the Javasript function name. I think
the easiest way will be to produce a new column with the date expresses
ddmmyyyy, ddmmyy or some such unique number (but not dd/mm/yyyy).
I tried :-
"CASE " & _
"WHEN t3.date = t3.date THEN (DAY(t3.Date) + MONTH(t3.Date) + YEAR(t3.Date)) ELSE NULL END AS [javaKey]
but this adds the year to the month to the day - not a unique result as 1/2/06 and 2/1/06 are the same.
I am just getting to grips with VB.Net (as an amature) but am a distinct beginner at SQL!
Many thanks
Mike

Hello
I am connecting to an Intersystems Cache' database and extracting data with a DataReader.
Does anyone have a suggestion or example on how to change the SQL String at runtime?
Everything I could find only dealt with setting the SQL String at design time.

Hi!
I create a SSIS Package for ETL on my own machine. During development database was also on my machine. For access to this database an OLE DB connection was defined within a package in BI Development Studio. Everything worked well both in debug mode and testing package itself.
Finally I need to load data to a database on a different machine using this package.
I used several scenaries:
1) simply copied the package-file to estination machine, open it for execution, in section "Connection Managers" I edited connection string manually - changed server name and Initial Catalog. And try to execute.
2) on the destination machine I manually created an OLE DB connection (using Microsoft Data Link) to a different database (test succeded), Changed the extention of the connection file 'udl' for ' txt ' and copied its connection string to the field connection string in section "Connection Managers" (pointed in variant 1) ).
3) use Package Configurations, copied the deployment to destination machine, installed the package the way like written here - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365338.aspx. Changed exported properties - Server name, Initial Catalog and also the whole Connection String. Also try to execute.
In all cases I recieved the same error execution message :
"Errors in the metadata manager. Either the database with ID of " OLD_DATABASE_NAME " does not exist in the server with ID of " NEW_SERVER_NAME " or the user does not have permissions to access the object."
As for access (username/pass) settings they are the same for both of them, I have the same administrative rights on both machines. And more with the same rights the ole db connection made was made manually in variant 2 - succeded!!! So I don't think the problem is here.
As for Error message - I think somewhere the OLD name of database (Initial Catalog) is saved, though I tried to change it. Though the NEW value for the server name is substituted.
Please, help me. I don't know what else can I try. And it is not a single case for my practice. So I think - something wrong in my actions.

Scenario:
130 dtsx packages using 4 matching connections.
3 of those connections are stored in an SSIS Configuration table in an Operational database.
The last connection is in a shared data source and points to the Operational database so the packages can grab the others.
Problem:
It's time for deployment and all of those connections must change to production servers.
The 3 are no issue, just change the ConfiguredValue in the SSIS Configuration table on the production box to point to the other production servers.
However, the fourth one... I had made an assumption that when you changed a shared data source it filtered down throughout all the packages. We all know what assumptions do to you.... So. I need a way to change all 130 connections (and be able to change ALL packages quickly and simply for other projects in the future)
Solution:
It has been suggested that we use another package to run though all of the packages and change the connection with a script task. I can live with this (and more importantly so can our DBS's who have to deploy).
I have one snippet of code to ADD a connection using a variable holding the connection string, but we dont' want to add one, just change an existing one.
Has anyone else done this? Or had a similar problem and way to fix?
We are likely to have many projects in which the connections MUST change at deployment, and the idea of going into every package to make the change is sad at best... We would be more likely to move back to a competitor's product that has a connection repository, than continue with SSIS.

I’m working with a team of programmers who are in the process of upgrading an older ASP application to ASP.NET 2.0 (VB). The existing application connects to the SQL Server Database using different Logins, depending on the User logged into the ASP Application.
We are hoping to do the same using ASP.NET 2.0, although we haven’t been able to find a simple solution. The most feasible solution we have found includes programmatically trapping all the Selecting etc events and changing the SqlConnection at run time. This allow for ease during Designing of the Web Pages, but implementation requires adding code to each web page (>100 pages).
We are hoping there may be a simple solution which can be implemented once for the application where the event can be trapped at the application level, and the SqlConnection set at this point. Or possibly another type of solution such as creating a new class etc that can be used?
Does anyone have a simple solution where the username / password for the Database Connection can be set at run time?

Hi,
Ive imported a data set into SQL. Now on redefining a text field to datetime, most dates that are filled come through okay.
The issue is that there are some empty fields which I'd like for it to stay empty after conversion. Now what happens is that the empty field becomes '01/01/1900' - which is throwing off our queries as we need it to be compared to other date fields.
Is there a way to keep it empty even after the datatype is changed to datetime?
Thanks a bunch!

Hi,I am getting this error: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.I'm trying to insert data into a table from a gridview, where two of the dates can be empty strings.I have set 'allow null' in the SQL Server table for the two dates, added the culture in the web.config file, and even tried converting the values to DBNull.None of which have worked, and I am still getting the error.This is the code I am using: if (e.CommandName == "EmptyInsert")

Convert.ToInt32(ddlPriorityIns.SelectedValue.ToString()), Convert.ToDateTime(txtMailshotDateIns.Text.ToString()));
GridView2.DataBind();
}
} I haven't checked txtVisitDateIns to see if it is an empty string as this date is required.Can anyone help?Thanks

I am passing a string to my stored procedure call where I convert it to a DateTime. I have pasted the relevant code below. My trouble is that prior to execution of the stored procedure an error is thrown "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime".
The error does not get thrown when I pass it a date, it only throws it when no date is provided.
The page I am using is a form to do a search. The search can allow a date to be entered or left out. How do I catch an empty value in the c# for an invalid datetime and still send the variable to the stored procedure.
//////////////////////////// C# Code /////////////////////////////////// Passing the Date to a stored Procedure SqlParameter bdpDateFrom = new SqlParameter("@datefrom", SqlDbType.DateTime);bdpDateFrom.Value = Convert.ToDateTime(thisbdpDateFrom);myCommand.Parameters.Add(bdpDateFrom);

Hi all, first time post so go easy.
I have been trying to find a way of creating a datetime comprised of getdate() and a time that i specify. I am trying to do this as shown below:
Declare @Test datetime
Declare @Test1 Datetime
Set @Test = getdate()
SET @Test1 = CONVERT(datetime, datepart(y, @Test) + datepart(m, @Test)+ datepart(d, @Test)+' 16:30:00',120)
So, i am building a string using datepart and then adding the time at the end. The 120 after the final comma is to define the style (as i am sure you will all know anyway).
When i run this i get the following error:
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 35
Syntax error converting the varchar value ' 16:30:00' to a column of data type int.
If i take out the colons it runs but brings back the wrong date, the whole date seems to be dependant on the time part at the end.
I am sure this is a really simple problem and i am sorry if i am wasting you time but its late and i just cant see it. Any help would be fantastic.

Can anyone tell me what this error message means and how I can correct it on my statement:

Here's my query statement:
Code:

I know it has something to do with: dateBorn = 'May%' because when I took out Quote: AND dateBorn = 'May%' I get results, but I need to narrow it down to list the cats born in May.
