the ssis expression language getdate() function returns the current date with the current time. i only need to get the current date, without the current time. for example: 9/1/2006
how would i construct the proper expression to return this value?
thanks in advance.
Is there a way to strip off the time portion of a datetime datatype without changing the datatype?
I know I can convert it using CONVERT (NVARCHAR(10), dbo.tblPayments.PaymentDate, 101) but I need to keep it as a datetime datatype?
I hope to update a DateTime column value with a Time input parameter.  Poor attempt below but it looks like the @ApptTime param is coming in as 10:45:00.0000000 and I might have an existing @SendOnDate as: 2015-10-05 07:00:00.000...I hope to end up with 2015-10-05 10:45:00.000
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[SendEditUPDATE]
@QuePoolID int=null
,@ApptTime time(7)
,@SendOnDate datetime

Hi all,
I have a table that I've imported into SQL - there is a field in there for date that must have used now(); as its default value (access).
So the values are something like:
01/11/2004 12:16:42
I need a way to change the data so that the time element removed is the field just holds the date. Failing that a way to insert this from the existing field into a new field stripping the date off en route would be a great help.
Many thanks
Phil
stupid question - how do I strip the time portion from a date returned from now() or

Hi,
We need to select rows from the database that have been recently inserted/updated. We have a main primary table (COMMIT_TEST) and a second update table (COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE). The update table contains the primary key and a LAST_UPDATE field which is a datetime (to tell us when an update occurred). Triggers on the primary table are used to populate the update table.
If we insert or update the primary table in a transaction, we would expect that the datetime of the insert/update would be at the commit, however it seems that the insert/update statement is cached and getdate() is executed at the time of the cache instead of the commit. This causes problems as we select rows based on LAST_UPDATE and a commit may occur later but the earlier insert timestamp is saved to the database and we miss that update.
We would like to know if there is anyway to tell the SQL Server to not execute the function getdate() until the commit, or any other way to get the commit to create the correct timestamp.
We are using default isolation level. We have tried using getdate(), current_timestamp and even {fn Now()} with the same results. SQL Queries that reproduce the problem are provided below:
/* Different functions to get current timestamp €“ all have been tested to produce the same results */
/*
SELECT GETDATE()
GO
SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
GO
SELECT {fn Now()}
GO
*/
/* Use these statements to delete the tables to allow recreate of the tables */
/*
DROP TABLE COMMIT_TEST
DROP TABLE COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE
*/
/* Create a primary table and an UPDATE table to store the date/time when the primary table is modified */
CREATE TABLE dbo.COMMIT_TEST (PKEY int PRIMARY KEY, timestamp) /* ROW_VERSION rowversion */
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE (PKEY int PRIMARY KEY, LAST_UPDATE datetime, timestamp ) /* ROW_VERSION rowversion */
GO
/* Use these statements to delete the triggers to allow reinsert */
/*
drop trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_INSERT
drop trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE
drop trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_DELETE
*/
/* Create insert, update and delete triggers */
create trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_INSERT on COMMIT_TEST for INSERT as
begin
declare @time datetime
select @time = getdate()
insert into COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE (PKEY,LAST_UPDATE)
select PKEY, getdate()
from inserted
end
GO
create trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE on COMMIT_TEST for UPDATE as
begin
declare @time datetime
select @time = getdate()
update COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE
set LAST_UPDATE = getdate()
from COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE, deleted, inserted
where COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE.PKEY = deleted.PKEY
end
GO
/* In our application deletes should never occur so we don€™t log when they get modified we just delete them from the UPDATE table */
create trigger LOG_COMMIT_TEST_DELETE on COMMIT_TEST for DELETE as
begin
if ( select count(*) from deleted ) > 0
begin
delete COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE
from COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE, deleted
where COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE.PKEY = deleted.PKEY
end
end
GO
/* Delete any previous inserted record to avoid errors when inserting */
DELETE COMMIT_TEST WHERE PKEY = 1
GO
/* What is the current date/time */
SELECT GETDATE()
GO
BEGIN TRANSACTION
GO
/* Insert a record into the primary table */
INSERT COMMIT_TEST (PKEY) VALUES (1)
GO
/* Simulate additional processing within this transaction */
WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:10'
GO
/* We expect at this point that the date is written to the database (or at least we need some way for this to happen) */
COMMIT TRANSACTION
GO
/* get the current date to show us what date/time should have been committed to the database */
SELECT GETDATE()
GO
/* Select results from the table €“ we see that the timestamp is 10 seconds older than the commit, in other words it was evaluated at */
/* the insert statement, even though the row could not be read with a SELECT as it was uncommitted */
SELECT * FROM COMMIT_TEST
GO
SELECT * FROM COMMIT_TEST_UPDATE
Any help would be appreciated, we understand we could make changes to the application/database to approximate what we need, but all the solutions have identified suffer from possible performance issues, or could still lead to missing deals (assuming the commit time is larger than some artifical time window).

Hi all:
first of all, i must say that this website is just awesome...
my question is how do i truncate the time portion in a datetime stamp in a single sql statement.
thanks.
I have a PHP page where the user enters a date that represents the last day of a timesheet (ts_end) and the hours worked on that timesheet. That is then written into a table where the date is a datetime type. Because the user just enters a date, the time portion of the field is set to 00:00:00. In another place, I need to sum the columns for reports submitted between the beginning of a timesheet (ts_end -6 days) and the ts_end date.
The problem is that chartreviewed values entered on the ts_end date are getting lost because the time part of the ts_end field is 00:00:00 and the time part of the dateentered for the chartreviewed value is not. For instance using 2/4/2004 as the ts_end date looses the 192 charts.
Reporter activity chartsdateentered
2001576 20672 563 2004-01-29 13:55:51.000
2001576 20665 202 2004-02-02 19:54:57.000
2001576 20666 160 2004-02-03 22:48:11.000
2001576 20667 192 2004-02-04 19:41:51.000
I know I can revise the query to look for charts where the dateentered is less than dateadd(d,1,ts_end) and get the right values. It seems like there has to be a way though to tell sqlserver to ignore the time part of a datetime field when querying.
Anybody know what it is?
Thanks,
Ursus
In VBA I'd use Format(myDateField,"Short Date") to display 1/31/2004instead of 1/31/2004 10:30:25 AMHow can I do this in a stored procedure?lq
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a datetime field named 'EntryDate' in one of the sql tables.
I want to update the time portion of this field and provide a default time of 8:00 AM IF the time portion is empty.
How can i do this?
I have startdate and enddate. I like startdate to be 4/28/08 12:00:00 and enddate to be 5/4/08 23:59:59. What update statement do i need to run to update table. Currently my table show startdate 2008-04-28 05:00:00.000

I'm trying to translate this portion of VFP code into LINQ query:
select COUNT(ID) as conflicts
from dbo.max4sale where <<thisform.cWhere>>
AND Start_Time >= <<VFP2SQL(m.ltBegin + m.lnStartTime)>>
and Start_time <= <<VFP2SQL(m.ltEnd)>>

AND CONVERT(varchar(5),End_Time,108) >= <<VFP2SQL(m.lcStartTime)>>
<<m.lcDays>>
Here is my non-working attempt:
var startTime = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1, beginDateTime.Hour, beginDateTime.Minute, 0);
var endTime = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1, endDateTime.Hour, endDateTime.Minute, 0);
var daysOfWeek = dailyLimits.Where(dl => dl.Selected == true).Select(ds => ds.WeekDay).ToList();
if (daysOfWeek.Count() < 7) // not all days of the week selected
[Code] .......
First of all, I see a bug in my logic now as the first part of the query I need to do all the time and only the second part if the count < 7. But that's not my problem - I can not figure out how to make times comparison only using LINQ. Ideally I think I'd like to have cast(start_time as time) >= @p1 as a result to be executed by LINQ.
BTW, I am only getting the error in run-time that Parse can not be interpreted. So, I need to figure out another way of making LINQ recognize my intent of checking time portion of the date only.
I like to add a day to this date and also make time to 23:59:59. So end result for this table and recrods will be 2008-11-09 23:59:59 and next row 2008-11-16 23:59:59 so on.....

Is there a command that will let me set getdate() a in a smalldatetime field so that the there is no time associated with it?
For example, I have a table that I want to load the date a user does an action. If I use getdate() I'll get a value such as 5/25/2006 08:26:56.340, whereas I would just like a value 5/25/2006.
I can work it out by doing the following: select (datename(month,getdate())+'-'+datename(day,getdate())+'-'
+datename(year,getdate()))
However it seems to me that there should be a simpler way.
Hi,I have a funny situation.Within: MSSQL 2000 SP3, everything below described is running on samePC.there is a program running, which sends information to two otherprograms.This information is a timestamp of the program in datetime format,which has it's own clock.The clock is incremented each 5 seconds of the program, whichcorespondes to aprox. one second of the real time.It means, each on second of real time, the computer time is updated +5seconds.Now, two other applications, are getting this information at the samemoment.FIRST of this applications, updates local time of the computer withthe time recieved.SECOND application, writes a protocol to file, with timestamp read atmoment of writing from operating system.Until now, all times are equal (the differences are not biger thatms).Now, the SECOND application, after writing a log into file (withproper timestamp), calls SP in database.It passes as input prm. the time recieved from very first program,which is the same time as the current system time, which is the sametime the SECOND application writes to the log file.This SP (besides other things) at the very beginning writes a log intotable, where two times are logged:- getdate() to first column,- timestamp recieved as input parameter.Now the funny thing.I would expect, the times are equal.getdate() = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'prm_recieved = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'I would expect, that the time from getdate() will be shifted withmiliseconds (because of call etc).getdate() = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.123'prm_recieved = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'I would even expect, that the time is shifted 5 seconds ahead:getdate() = '2007.04.25 10:00:05.000'prm_recieved = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'or, 5 seconds and some miliseconds:getdate() = '2007.04.25 10:00:05.123'prm_recieved = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'What I can not UNDERSTAND, why sometimes the time is equal, orsometimes is ALMOST equal (within the diff of miliseconds), and whysometimes the time is like this(!!!) :getdate() = '2007.04.25 10:59:55.000'prm_recieved = '2007.04.25 10:00:00.000'It seams to me, the getdate is getting somehow the PERVIOUS localsystem time, which was acctualy already upgraded ! Becasue all otherapp's are having the proper value.All other apps are writen in C++ and are very simple.I was trying to set the SQLServer running property higher - with noresult.I need to mention, there is SQLServer Agent running, and one procedurewith endless loop, with waitfor delay equal 2 seconds.But non of them (changing the waitfor delay to other value, disablingSQLAgent) fixes the problem.Can somebody then tell me, where from is the time taken, or what isthe root problem of this issue?Or what can it be?Best regards,Matik

Hi,I am creating creating a table with a Date column dd-mm-yyyy.

Can anyone tell me how I can strip certain chahrcters from a string
I know I can use replace, but i don't think this is appropriate for what I want to do
For example I have the string
declare @text varchar (100)
select @text = 'word1, word2 & word3'
if i do a replace on the string like this
select @text = 'replace(@text, ',', '')
select @text = 'replace(@text, '&', '')
I end up with the string
select @text = 'word1 word2 word3'
i.e. 2 spaces between word2 and word3
What i want the string to look like is :
select @text = 'word1 word2 word3'
Is there a way i can check for more than one space + characters ( / , &) in one go
many thanks

I have a column of 5 comma-separated-value strings:
stringA, stringB, stringC, stringD, stringE
The strings are GUID's with the hyphen stripped and made all uppercase so they are completely random. I need to be able to remove any one of the strings including the comma, in a stored procedure and I am not sure how to accomplish this.
SELECT tickets
FROM users
WHERE CONTAINS (tickets, @ticket)
IF @@rowcount > 0
REMOVE STUFF HERE
SET @valid = 1
ELSE
SET @valid = 0
So if stringB gets passed in as @ticket then the new value in the column would be :
stringA, stringC, stringD, stringE
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I'm trying to find a way to strip text from a string. In the past (pre SQL Server) I would've used
LName: Left(NCBH!Name,InStr(1,NCBH!NAME,",",1)-1)
To strip the last name from a string like
Franks,George J
Apparently InStr is not a recognized function in SQL Server 2000. Or is it available but not in a view?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
I have a phone number string (416) 555-5555 in a table. I'd like to perform a search on the string so that the user is able to pass any number, and the query returns all phone numbers like it. What I'd like to do is to strip out the brackets and dashes and perform a like search.

Hi all
How to get just the date portion from a datetime field from sql server?
thanks a lot
I asked this question in the mysql forums, but I am also interested in any info regarding MSSQL. I've seen databases with search systems with the functionality I seek below. I just have no idea how they are doing it. Thank you.
We have an mysql inventory database. We want to be able to put in 4984.600 and choose "match any portion" and it finds 4984600 which is in our database.
Does Mysql have a "match any portion" search function? In this case LIKE didn't work which we tried already.
Any ideas? or are we stuck with using MSSQL. We know this will work with MSSQL.
Thank you very much. This is a huge problem for us.
