The reason I see is the assignment to a variable of a different data type. Is there a way to preserve the date format when I assign the value to a character field?

Does getdate() always returns date values in a standard format or it changes with the system date settings. I want to get 200110 for october 2001 and want to use getdate() for this purpose.
I'm trying to return the month part of the current date, along with the month number. I want it to return:
01 - January 02 - February, etc
It's fine for October to December, but for the other nine months my code returns 1 - January and I want to be sure the leading 0 is added. How can I do this? Here is my current code:
CONVERT(nvarchar,MONTH(Getdate())) + ' - ' + DATENAME(MONTH,Getdate()) as MonthName
I want to build a query that takes the max (or most current) DateAtMidnight from a table with all fields. This query qould ultimately be used for SSIS packages instead of formulating variables and other tables.
For simplicity, I started with a basic query.
Select DateAtMidnight, Field1, Field2 From Sales_Invoices
I cannot find a good example of how to use getdate() -1 day. Please assist.
,convert(varchar,getdate(),101) as [CONFIRMATION_DATE!1!REPORT_DATE] The above displays as 8/26/2006, anyway you can convert that to a long format in the SP? I.E. August 26, 2006 Thanks.
I'm using some files to show certain pages on certain date for an example
File name : aa.doc start date: 10/02/00 end date : 10/03/00
But it expires on 10/02/00, here is the strored procedure:
Before the date comes, it expires the page Here is my stored procedure:
" SELECT startdate, enddate,archivedate and (startdate is null or (getdate() >= startdate and getdate() <= enddate)) and (archivedate is null or (getdate() <= archivedate)) group by startdate, enddate order by startdate desc "
I have created SSRS report which has many overlapping objects, the output in PDF format seems to good but in word format it is not giving the required output.

I have a table which stores date-of-birth in varchar 19861231(yyyymmdd). A view takes this data. I want to store this date as mmddyyyy in the view. How can we achieve this?
I have a set of csv files and a set of Format Specification files for each of the csv files. I need to convert the csv files into another format of csv files as specified in the Format Specification files. All the columns of the input csv files do not have a mapping with the columns of the output csv files. How can I achieve this using SSIS ? This is an urgent requirement. Please reply asap. Thanks.
I am stuck at one place, where I have to convert CSV format file data into SAP IDOC format file. In SSIS we don't have any such SAP adapter (though we have .NET Data Provider for mySAP suite [SSIS SAP Adapter] but this is still not fully supported by Microsoft, plus it doesn't have feature to convert data into IDOC format) that can do this. Can someone here please provide me some pointers on any third party adapters available in market to do this job or if anyone has already developed some custom approach to achieve this task?
Your quick response on this is highly appreciated.
When I use the getDate() function I get something like 2005-03-09 15:13:45.017 but I don't want the time, just 2005-03-09 how do you strip out the time from the result? Thanks
However, when I run select getdate() in Sql 6.5 I get the following Apr 27 2001 11:59AM
Both queries are run from the QueryIsql window.
How can I get the sql 7 version of getdate to be exactly the same as the sql 6.5 version from the query window without resorting to usign the convert function?
According to Sql 7 books online, getdate "Returns the current system date and time in the Microsoft® SQL Server™ standard internal format for datetime values"
I'm facing some strange problem here: -----------------------------------------
I'm using some files to show certain pages on certain date for an example
File name : aa.doc start date: 10/02/00 end date : 10/03/00
But it expires on 10/02/00, here is the strored procedure:
Before the date comes, it expires the page Here is my stored procedure:

i am also trying to write a query that retrieve information on yesterdays new registered member. So far as i am concern with sqlserver you use the getdate()-1 to retrieve this information. But the problem i get when i try to use the getdate()-1 is that i tend to get todays and yesterdays registered users. Is there anywhere that i would be able to retrieve information on just yesterdays new registered members and also only todays new register members.
I know this is going to sound really daft, but what is the easiest way of getting today's date without the time? Getdate() on it's own doesn't work because it always brings out the time. I know I'm missing something really basic but I can't figure it out.
G'day, I want to display the current time minus 5 minutes. say 2004-03-29 11:43:49.123 to be 2004-03-29 11:38:49.123.
Is there any Equivalent to the DB2's CURRENT TIMESTAMP - 5 MINUTES which will display the current day say 2004-03-29 11:43:49.123 as 2004-03-29 11:38:49.123
Hi, when I used getdate() fuction, its giving the correct time in this format 10/02/2007 01:04:31 PM. But I need the time in 24 hour format. Means it should be like 10/02/2007 13:04:31.
select H.IsoDate, HI.Country, HI.Center, H.ExchangeCode, HC.Holiday, H.HolidayCode from Holidays H join HolidayInfo HI on HI.Code = H.ExchangeCode join HolidayCodes HC on H.HolidayCode = HC.Code where H.isodate = getdate()
This is a script but the getdate part is not working can somebody point me in the right direction where i might be going wrong.
