Hi,
If the datetime value is '20.01.2006', what will be the style in CONVERT function ?
Eg : select convert(datetime, '20.01.2006') gives datetime out-of-range error.
There is no style provided for dd.mm.yyyy in SQL Server documentation. Is there any way to do such conversion with this constant value of format dd.mm.yyyy ?
Please advice,
Thanks,

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.

I am trying to access a date column up to millisecond precession. So I cast date to as follows:
Code BlockCONVERT(varchar(23),CREATE_DATE,121)
I get millisecond part as a result of query but its 000?.
When I try to test the format by using getDate instead of DateTime column I get right milliseconds.
CONVERT(varchar(23),GetDate(),121) --Gives right milliseconds in return
I want to make a CSS Style solution for my reports. I have few ideas related to this, changing the report properties on the fly, but I am not sure for which I should go for.
- We know that we can put expression on reports almost everywhere, and can also call custom code for setting up those expressions. i.e.
Public Shared Function GetValue(ByVal Key As String) As String
Dim myDataReader As SqlDataReader
Dim mySqlConnection As SqlConnection
Dim mySqlCommand As SqlCommand
mySqlConnection = New SqlConnection("server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=yes;database=tempMIQB")
mySqlCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM [Properties] Where PropertyName='" & Key & "'", mySqlConnection)
mySqlConnection.Open()
myDataReader = mySqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
If myDataReader.Read() Then
GetValue = myDataReader.Item("PropertyValue").ToString
Else
GetValue = "None"
End If
End Function
and in textbox or any where I can say =Code.GetValue("BGColor") or from .NET dll.
For going further on with this idea I can create an .NET dll and get the list from database or XML file. (Please give suggestions for performance/scalability issue.)
- second idea is to write a custom application (script) which can go through all the reports and change the color and fonts and every thing.
- third is to use parameters and use Array.IndexOf method to search for the value, but in this case i need to add dataset to all reports and, I think we cannot access report properties i.e. Parameters from custom code, just to make a generic function to access parameter value.
hi,
How do i convert a varchar field into the datetime data type? the reason i need this lies in the requirement that in the earlier data base the column that is hlding the date value is having the data type as varchar. and in the new design the column data type is datetime. i am using sql scripts for the data migration from the older design to the newer and got stuck with this datetime convertion issue. do let me know the best possible solution.
following are the sample data that is theer in the older table for the date.
12/12/2003
1/13/2007
01132004
1-1-2004
1.2.2001
there is no uniformity of the data that is stored currently.
thnkx in adv.

I have a date filed 12/26/2006 and a time field 7:00am. How can I combine them in my select statement and get a DateTime field.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello All,
In following statement in SQL, I'm first converting 'IssueDate' with style 101 into 'nvarchar' then converting to Datatime.
convert(datetime,convert (nvarchar,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX,101)) <= '3/29/2004')
Which is right in below one.
1. Do I need to first convert into nvarchar then datetime.
e.g. convert(datetime,convert (nvarchar,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX,101)) <= '3/29/2004')
2. Otherwise can I directly convert into datetime.
convert(datetime,Cert_WarehouseDetails.IssuedDateX ,101) <= '3/29/2004')
Please reply to me asap.

Hi,
I have DB2 date value 00000000. If I'm exporting to SQL server using openquery that is automaticaly converting to char of 8 and stored as the same value 00000000.
My question is how I can convert them as datetime value in SQL server 2000.?
I have a query that determines a product's date of manufacture from the serial number. The day is formatted as a day number (e.g. "107" = April 17) and the year as a two-digit year. All dates can be assumed to be 21st century.
I need to take this data, which is in two separate fields in varchar format, and represent it as a date in mm/dd/yyyy format. So for example, if the field values are "107" and "06" I need to display "04/17/2006."
Thanks in advance for the correct formula!
Have a requirement to:

thx in advance!
I have values in seconds (integers) in a database column and I want to convert those values to datetime. For example: 102 into 1:42(60 seconds = 1 minute + 42 seconds = 1:42), 150 into 2:30, etc.
I've been working for hours today on this, but haven't been able to come up with a solution.
I have a stored procedure that takes a @INPUT_DATE Varchar(25) as an input parameter. It passes this @Date to a User Defined function that checks if @Date is a valid date and then returns either the date or a "1" for not a valid date. If it is not a valid date, I use the RAISERROR and stop the insert call.
Here is the parts from the Stored Procedure
Code:
--Input Parameter
@INPUT_DATEvarchar(25) = NULL,
--Send the Parameter to the User Defined Function
DECLARE @Error AS INT
DECLARE @ErrorMessage AS VARCHAR(200)
--Check to make sure a all dates are entered correctly
SET @INPUT_DATE = dbo.Function_Check_Date(@INPUT_DATE)
IF (@INPUT_DATE = '1')
BEGIN
SET @Error = 1
SET @ErrorMessage = '-Date formatted wrong'
RAISERROR(@ErrorMessage, 15, 1)
END
-------------------------------------------------------
IF @Error <> 1
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Table1(DateColumn)
VALUES (CONVERT(DATETIME, @INPUT_DATE))
And here is my User Defined Function
Code:
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[Function_Check_Date]
(
@Temp VarChar(25)
)
RETURNS VARCHAR
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Date VarChar(25)
IF (ISDATE(@Temp) = 0) AND (@Temp <> 'N/A') AND (@Temp <> '')
BEGIN
SET @Date = '1'
END
ELSE IF (@Temp = 'N/A') OR (@Temp = '') --For not availables or Blanks
BEGIN
SET @Date = CONVERT(DATETIME, '1/1/1900')
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Date = CONVERT(DATETIME, @Temp)
END
RETURN @Date
END
The error is occuring when I try to convert the @INPUT_DATE to a datetime in the insert statement. The field value for the DateColumn in the database is a DateTime format. The error I receive is Error Converting datetime from character string. But when I test all these items in Query Analyzer, I am able to do each step without error?
Thanks for any advice, as I am rather confused.
HI! :shocked:

declare @dt varchar(20)
select count(s.sopnumbe) as orders from sop30300 s
left outer join sop30200 ss
on s.sopnumbe = ss.sopnumbe
where s.itemnmbr=ss.sku and s.soptype = 2 and ss.docdate=@dt
well docdate is datetime and dt is varchar
how can i compare - both?

I want to merge data from two different tables that have the same column names but different datatypes.
Table one has a varchar field pubdate_full that includes a date formatted as text like this: '2005-04-15'.
Table two has a smalldatetime field called Hard_NYP and a varchar pubdate field that includes just the year (eg '2007').
I want to Select data in table two and return a pubdate_full field that has either the datepub or the Hard_due. If the Hard_due is not null or '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM' then I want to fill pubdate_full with that value, otherwise fill it with the pubdate value.
This works in that regard:
SELECT Hard_due, datepub
CASE WHEN (Hard_due <> '1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM') AND
(Hard_due IS NOT NULL) THEN Hard_Due ELSE datepub END AS pubdate_full from inventory
The question is, how do I convert pubdate_full on the fly to be the same format and datatype as the Table one pubdate_full or vice versa in order to be able to merge the two tables?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi.
I need to convert a vb function into a user-defined function in a stored procedure.
The vb function converts a long datatype into Date datatype.
Here is the VB function:
Function LongToTime(lTime As Long) As Date
LongToTime = (lTime 10000) / 24 + ((lTime Mod 10000) 100) / 1440 + (lTime Mod 100) / 86400
End Function
The function is used to convert a timestamp(hhmmss) into a more readable format.
Would it be possible to create a function similar to this in an SQL stored procedure?
Thanks in advance

Please help me in resolving this issue. Thank you
Hi,
I'm not entirely sure that this is the correct forum for this question but it relates to my SSIS package.
I am currently implementing an SSIS package to replace an existing stored procedure which is getting very unmanageable. I have come across a part in the stored procedure which performs a convert(datetime, @Parameter3, 14) on a string of data. The string value of @Parameter3 is in the following format HH:mm:ss.
The problem i am having is how to implement similar functionality in a script task. everything i have tried involving the datetime object returns 1,1,0001, 00:00:00 or similar. It never seems to get the time so that it can be passed to a datetime field in the database.
Thanks in advance for any help that is provided.

I am currently using the code below to convert data collected in 1 minute intervals to other time intervals (e.g., 5 minute intervals). The code works fine except for one thing. I would like the DateTime value in the new interval to coincide with the end DateTime value of that interval rather than the ceiling DateTime value (the values of Field1 thru Field4 must be extracted from existing data). The problem occurs when there is no data for a particular 1 minute time period. An example might make this more clear (in this case 1 min data is converted to 5 min data).
'2007-09-30T08:01:00'
'2007-09-30T08:02:00'
'2007-09-30T08:03:00'
'2007-09-30T08:04:00'
'2007-09-30T08:05:00'
Above values are used to create a 5 min interval record with
DateTimeValue for this record (in DestTableName) = '2007-09-30T08:05:00'
That's how it should work. However, missing data causes a problem
in the next 5 min time interval.
'2007-09-30T08:06:00'
'2007-09-30T08:07:00'
'2007-09-30T08:08:00'
'2007-09-30T08:09:00'
Missing value at '2007-09-30T08:10:00'
Above values are used to create a 5 min interval record with
DateTimeValue for this record (in DestTableName) = '2007-09-30T08:09:00'
Instead, I want the DateTime value in DestTableName to be '2007-09-30T08:10:00'
The values in Field1 - Field4 in DestTable have to be drawn from existing data; the only 'artificial' data would be the DateTime time value needed to coincide with the time interval.

I'm new to handling dates in T-SQL having mainly used the more forgiving Access.
I am trying to extract the date from a 40 chr field example below - dates are dd/mm/yy
Input By Angelab On 13/08/06 19:55:33
using
SELECT CONVERT(datetime, SUBSTRING(A.Comments,22,8),3) AS EntryDate
FROM
(SELECT CommentDetails.Comments, InvoiceDetails.TransRef FROM (Transactions INNER JOIN CommentDetails ON Transactions.TransRef = CommentDetails.TransRef) INNER JOIN InvoiceDetails ON Transactions.TransRef = InvoiceDetails.TransRef WHERE ((Transactions.TransDate Between DATEADD(day,-5, '26-Dec-2004' ) And DATEADD(day,5, '01-Jan-2005' )) AND (SUBSTRING(CommentDetails.Comments,1,8)='Input by'))) AS A
WHERE (CONVERT(datetime, SUBSTRING(A.Comments,22,8),3) Between '26-Dec-2004' And '01-Jan-2005' )
Although without the final WHERE it works fine, so the data is OK, with the final WHERE I get "out of range datetime value", how can it be valid in the SELECT statement but not the WHERE statement.
Our SQL server is set to american dates mm/dd/yyyy.
