Formatting Dates
Jan 20, 2004
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to output a special format for dates in SELECT statements. Currently, my date field is returning my date in this format:
2004-01-19 00:00:00.000
but I want it to be like this:
1/19/04 or 1/19/2004
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.

Hi,
In MS Access I can do the following:
Format([SW_Dttm],"Short Date")
What is the equivalent in SQL Server?
Thanks,

I have a field in sqlserver 7.0 defined as type datetime. It has the following value - 2000-07-01 00:44:01.700. What is the best way to strip only the 2000-07-01 out of the field into another field as a date?

Anyone know how to format dates from 10/3/05 to 2005/10/03 in a query?
The only way I know is (cast(year(srecordeddate) as char(4)))+ cast('/'as char) + cast (month(srecordeddate) as char(2)).... Which seems so rediculous. There's gotta be a better way!

I am producing a weekly report on the previous week's data (obviously).
For once I have no problems with the data, however they'd (those that want the report) like a heading which lists the date period in question.
so for example
16th January to 22nd January
I can get today's date by using the following:
=Format(Today, "MMMM d")
but how do I get the dates to format into the previous seventh day and the previous day, so it says:
January 16 to January 22?

How can I do this with Parameters? I can get a single parameter to filter for a single date (or even a combo list of the dates in DB). But I want my parameters to interact so that they specify a range. Is this possible?

Hi,
I have a table which records employees'time-off records. There are 6 columns in this TimeOff table. They are RequestID, EmpName, StartDate, EndDate, Type, NumofDays. I have another table which has all the dates from 01/01/1950 to 01/01/2056.
I am trying write a query which lists all the dates between the timeoff startdate and enddate, including the the start and end dates, but my query so far only lists the start and end date in a timeoff record:
SELECT D.[Date], Datename(dw,D.[Date]) AS Weekday
FROM Dates D LEFT JOIN TimeOff T ON D.[Date] = T.OffStartDate OR D.[Date] = T.OffEndDate
WHERE (OffType = 'Sick Day' AND EmpName = 'Cat White') AND (D.[Date] BETWEEN T.StartDate AND T.EndDate)
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Has anyone ever written a function to retrieve all individual dates between two given dates? Using DATEDIFF I can get the number of days between two dates. However I need to iterate through the days to identify weekend and holiday dates. Has anyone ever written a function to do this?
So, if select datediff(d,'07/01/2007','07/15/2007') as NumOfDays returns 14, I'd need to iterate through the 14 days and get the weekends and holidays. Would I have to use a cursor to iterate through the days?

Hello all,I have a strange problem that i need some advice on. I have the following field called FILENO. It is a SQL 2000 field with the Data Type set to Char (7). The following sql statement works perfectly:SELECT TOP 1 RTRIM(FILENO) AS TEST, RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) AS YEAR FROM tblRecordsWHERE RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) = '05'ORDER BY FILENO DESCIt returns the correct data, 0050. Now, what i'm trying to do is add 1 to the value so i can get the next available number which is 0051. But, when i run the following sql statement, i get 51 instead of 0051.SELECT TOP 1 RTRIM(FILENO+1) AS TEST, RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) AS YEAR FROM tblRecordsWHERE RIGHT(DATEPART(Yy, FILENOYEAR), 2) = '05'ORDER BY FILENO DESCDoes anyone have an idea how to solve this? Thanks.Richard M.

I'm working as a consultant for a project and I have been having constant issues with the in house "database guru" about stored procedure formating.
He insists I use a format similar to this:
create procedure getUser @UserId int = NULL
as
select
UserName
, UserPassword
, UserRole
from
Users
join
UserRole
on
User.ID = UserRole.ID
where
User.ID = @UserID
and
User.Active = 1
where as I prefer this format:
create procedure getUser
(
@UserId int = NULL
)
as
select UserName,
UserPassword,
UserRole
from Users
join UserRole on User.ID = UserRole.ID
where User.ID = @UserID
and User.Active = 1
Now normally I don't argue about style issues but I find his format confusing and it bothers me that it senselesly wastes lines make the stored procedure longer than necessary.
I'd love to get some comments on this issue or reference to any discussions on issues such as this.
Thanks

Hello -
Does anyone know why SQL Server Reporting Services formatts SQL weird? -- If I type a SQL statement in notepad or notepad++ and then paste it in Reporting Services it will change the whole structure and "expand" it out to three or four times its size.
Thanks

I need to show my SUM of the 2 columns added in the query below formatted as currency. Is this possible?
SELECT SUM(QVSTDN + QVNONC) AS Total FROM INVOICE_TBL WHERE QVORDN = @QVORDN AND QVINV = @QVINV
I tried:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(12), SUM(QVSTDN + QVNONC) , 1) AS Total FROM INVOICE_TBL WHERE QVORDN = @QVORDN AND QVINV = @QVINV
But this does not format it as currency. Any input would be helpful.

I am trying to output data from SQL Server to an email body message with a little formatting (just to make it legible)
Using this SQL statement:
select top 1 'Name', app_first_name+' '+app_last_name [name] ,'Submission Date', submission_date ,'Address', app_address+', '+app_city+', '+app_state+' '+app_zip from vw_bpa_export where app_email = dave@email.com order by submission_date desc
the resulting output displays this in the email body
"Name","Brian Vogler","Submission Date","2008-01-30 07:45:00","Address","6285 Harrow Trace, Norcross, GA 30092 "
but what I want is the text to look more like this:
Name Brian VoglerSubmission Date 2008-01-30 07:45:00Address 6285 Harrow Trace, Norcross, GA 30092
Is there a way to do this in the SQL statement (without HTML tags)?

I have values in my database that I'd like to display as $xxx,xxx.xx. Some of these values use the money datatype and others use float.
I'm building a string in a stored procedure that is eventually passed to Visual Basic. I want to format these values in the above format in the string that is passed. I've searched all through MSN and I couldn't find anything related to VB's FORMAT function in SQL Server.
Does Transact-SQL have any functions that could format these values for me?

Does anyone familiar with a tool or a quick way to put apostrophes and commas around some values, so they could be used in a query ? Example, if I have a bunch of zip codes such as:
10001
10003
10009
54321
89043
etc
Let's say I have a couple of hundreds of them. I need to be able to see them as -
'10001','10003','10009','54321','89043' etc
Appreciate very much your time.

I have been requested to take a number of columns and concatenate them into one column with a specifc format/layout. For example I need to take this, (noting all columns are of different datatypes:
col_1 col_2 col_3 col_4 col_5 col_6 col_7
PK #1 John Doe 123 Elm Street Anywhere NM 55660
#2
#3
etc..
...and create this on a different table (noting col_2 is of datatype "text":
col_1 col_2
PK #1 John Doe
123 Elm Street
Anywhere NM 55660
#2
#3
etc..
Can this type of formatting be done?
I know how to concatenate data and use the convert function, but how do you add in CR-LF to get the proper formatting??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am running a script which inserts certain rows into a table and at the end of the execution, I do a select statement to show the inserted data as output in the results pane and it is showing as truncated...How can I show the full results..
Here is my script to show the results.
----------
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @errorCount INT
SELECT @errorCount = COUNT(*) FROM error_report WHERE id != - 2 ANDid != - 5
IF @errorCount = 0
BEGIN
INSERT INTO error_report VALUES( '' , - 1 , 'No error found.' )
END
INSERT INTO error_report VALUES( '' , - 2 , 'The Report was generated on ' + CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR(23), GETDATE(), 1) AS VARCHAR) )
GO
SELECT table_name + ' table has bad data at id = ' + CAST(CONVERT(VARCHAR(23), id) AS VARCHAR) + ' (' + CAST(reason AS VARCHAR) + ')'FROM error_report WHERE id > 0
SELECT table_name + ' table has bad data (' + CAST(reason AS VARCHAR) + ')' FROM error_report WHERE id = 0
SELECT reason FROM error_report WHERE id = - 1

I am using a MS Access ADP connected to SQL Server Data
In a view I have the following formula:
dbo.tblQuoteItem.Cost + dbo.tblQuoteItem.Markup * dbo.tblQuoteItem.Cost * .01
this calculates cost + markup
I cannot get it to format in Currency
Ex:
Cost is $1.75
Markup is 2.00 (2%)
Total shows - 1.785000
I want $1.78
Also - I am using this formula to calculate the Quoted price for the Qty Entered
dbo.tblQuoteItem.Qty * dbo.tblQuoteItem.Cost + dbo.tblQuoteItem.Markup * dbo.tblQuoteItem.Cost * .01
Using a Qty of 2 for above, I get 3.535000
I want $3.53
Any help is appreciated - AB

I have an old DB2 app that has date values in 4 fields (i.e. Date1_MO, Date1_DA, Date1_CN, Date1_YR). I have several MSAccess queries that I convert this to a date by doing the following:
CDate(Date1_MO & "/" & Date1_DA & "/" & Date1_CN & Format(Date1_YR,"00"))
Piece of cake....however I am struggling with this in MSSQL.
Mostly I am fighting formatting the Year. As you can see, If I were to concatinate the above values i would come up with something like 3/9/204 for a date of March 9, 2004. (Each field is a numeric value).
I have gotten this far....
select CAST(Date1_MO as varchar(2))+ '/' + CAST(Date1_DA as varchar(2))
+ '/' + CAST(Date1_CN as varchar(2))+ CAST(Date1_YR as varchar(2)) as Date1
From tPrices
I still need to convert the whole string to a date, but more importantly, I cannot figure out how to get the last element (Year) to format as '04' instead of '4'. I can't concatinate a 0 in front of it for obvious reasons. (Athough I was tempted, just joking)
I looked through a lot of the T-SQL docs but have come up dry.
Anyway HELP!!!!!!

At first I'd like to justify myself - I'm rather a greenhorn in MS SQL ;-)
What I'd like to do is to create a very simple spool file from my database.
I'd like to do this using OSQL tool and it's very important for me to have the spool file in the same format as it was earlier when I used Oracle and simple spool command.
And it's almost the same, but white spaces...
There's always one white space at the begining of each line and at least one at the and of each line.
I've been trying many OSQL switches and ltrim(..) / rtrim(..) functions but the problem still exists...
The spool file is rather big - around 300MB so it's not good idea to use SED (for example) to remove white spaces.
So my question:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO REMOVE WHITE SPACES COMPLETELY USING OSQL SPOOL?
Thanks in advance for any help.
