Insert DateTime Into SQL Server Using C#
Jan 13, 2004Hi,
I have very little C# experience and I am in over my head here. This script will insert all data into the data base after I have removed all refference to the date.
I know I have to change the datatype in code, but I have tried everything I can think of.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Howto Insert A Null DateTime Into A Sql Server 2005 Database
Apr 2, 2008I'm importing data form an Excel file to a Sql Server Database. Some of the data imported represents time as a double type so i convert the times into DateTime to be inserted into the database. The time values that aren't available in the Excel file are 0.. so what i want to do is insert null into the database for all the values that are 0 in the excel file... How do i do that based on this code i have so far:protected void ButtonImport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){PanelUpload.Visible = false;PanelView.Visible = false;PanelImport.Visible = true;LabelImport.Text = "";OleDbCommand objCommand = new OleDbCommand();objCommand = ExcelConnection(); OleDbDataReader reader;reader = objCommand.ExecuteReader(); while (reader.Read()){DateTime? in_1 = null;DateTime? out_1 = null;DateTime? in_2 = null;DateTime? out_2 = null; int emp_id = Convert.ToInt32(reader["emp_id"]);DateTime date_entry = Convert.ToDateTime(reader["date_entry"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["in_1"]) != 0)in_1 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["in_1"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["out_1"]) != 0)out_1 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["out_1"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["in_2"]) != 0)in_2 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["in_2"]);if (Convert.ToDouble(reader["out_2"]) != 0)out_2 = ConvertDoubleToDateTime((double)reader["out_2"]); ImportIntoAttendance(emp_id, date_entry, in_1, out_1, in_2, out_2);} reader.Close();}protected void ImportIntoAttendance(int emp_id, DateTime date_entry, DateTime? in_1, DateTime? out_1, DateTime? in_2, DateTime? out_2){ SqlDataSource AttendanceDataSource = new SqlDataSource();AttendanceDataSource.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["SalariesConnectionString1"].ToString();AttendanceDataSource.InsertCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text;AttendanceDataSource.InsertCommand = "INSERT INTO Attendance (emp_id, date_entry, in_1, out_1, in_2, out_2) " +"VALUES ('" + emp_id + "', '" + date_entry + "', '" + in_1 + "', '" + out_1 + "', " +"'" + in_2 + "', '" + out_2 + "')"; int rowsAffected = 0;try{rowsAffected = AttendanceDataSource.Insert();}catch(Exception ex){LabelImport.Text += "<font color=red>" + ex + "</font><br />";} }private DateTime ConvertDoubleToDateTime(double dbTime){string[] SplitTime = dbTime.ToString().Split('.');string hours = SplitTime[0];string minutes = String.Empty;string time = String.Empty; if (dbTime.ToString().IndexOf('.') != -1){if (SplitTime[1].Length >= 1){if (SplitTime[1].Length == 1)minutes = Convert.ToString(Convert.ToDouble(SplitTime[1]) * 10);else if (SplitTime[1].Length > 1)minutes = SplitTime[1];}}elseminutes = "00";time = hours + ":" + minutes;return Convert.ToDateTime(time);}

Millisecond Values Missing When Inserting Datetime Into Datetime Column Of Sql Server
Jul 9, 2007Hi,
I'm inserting a datetime values into sql server 2000 from c#
SQL server table details
Table nameate_test
columnname datatype
No int
date_t DateTime
C# coding
SqlConnection connectionToDatabase = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=testdb;Integrated Security=SSPI");
connectionToDatabase.Open();
DataTable dt1 = new DataTable();
dt1.Columns.Add("no",typeof(System.Int16));
dt1.Columns.Add("date_t", typeof(System.DateTime));
DataRow dr = dt1.NewRow();
dr["no"] = 1;
dr["date_t"] = DateTime.Now;
dt1.Rows.Add(dr);
for(int i=0;i<dt1.Rows.Count;i++)

string str=dt1.Rows["no"].ToString();

string insertQuery = "insert into date_test values(" + str + ",'" + dt + "')";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(insertQuery, connectionToDatabase);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MessageBox.Show("saved");
}
When I run the above code, data is inserted into the table
The value in the date_t column is 2007-07-09 22:10:11 000.The milliseconds value is always 000 only.I need the millisecond values also in date_t column.
Is there any conversion needed for millisecond values?

Datetime Format (insert From Vb6)
Apr 12, 2000I'm still having a problem inserting date fields into sql server.
I don't understand how it accepts datetime.
I have all of my date columns defined with datetime format and all of the dates are coming out as the default of: 01/01/1900.
I tried to insert the data as string and sql server doesn't understand that format.
Here's some of the code:
We're going from flat VSAM files to an sql server database.
This is one huge sql insert statement with about 75 fields being loaded into a table so I'll only post one the date fields.
Here's where I call the String functions from:
First, I have to uncomp the field from binary to String:
ls_sdate = Right$(CompToStr(bufMast.Name_Chg_Date), 8)
And then I send this string to my Convert_Date function:
lsDet1 = Trim$(lsDet1) & Convert_Date(ls_sdate) & ","
(lsDet1 is a concatenated String of the SQL Values to be inserted)
And Here are the two functions:
The date field is coming in like: 1991112 where if the first character is a 1, the year is 1900 and if the first character is a 0, the year is 2000.
I get correct fields in my message box like 1996/12/31 but then I don't know what sql server does to it in datetime format.
When I check the database table it looks like: 01/12/1900
Maybe there is something wrong with my Convert_Date function;

Insert Time Into DateTime Field
Apr 5, 1999I would like to be able to insert a time value only into a SQL 7 table colum which has been set as a datetime datatype. When I insert '12:34:44 PM' into the colum it actually inserts '1900-1-1 12:34:44 PM'. An Access table will allow you to insert the time value without adding the '1/1/1900' date value. Can this be done in SQL7?
Thanks for any help.
Trouble With Datetime Insert And Update
Apr 7, 2006I am trying to Insert or Update a record in MSSQL with a datetime variable which is modified using the DateAdd function.
Basically, I have a table of Coupons which need to expire 'x' days in the future. When I use GetDate() for the Issue Date, I have no problems. But then, when I use DateAdd to return a date in the future, I can not Insert or Update this result into the record.
I get various errors having to do with type mismatch or function not found, etc.
Can you see what I might be doing wrong?
Here's the code snippit:
<%
if(Recordset2.Fields.Item("SerialNo").Value <> "") then UpdateExpire__SerNo = Recordset2.Fields.Item("SerialNo").Value
if(DateAdd("d",2,Now) <> "") then UpdateExpire__XD = DateAdd("d",2,Now)
%>
<%
set UpdateExpire = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
UpdateExpire.ActiveConnection = MM_FreeVB_STRING
UpdateExpire.CommandText = "UPDATE dbo.Coupon SET ExpireDate = " + Replace(UpdateExpire__XD, "'", "''") + " WHERE SerialNo = " + Replace(UpdateExpire__SerNo, "'", "''") + ""
UpdateExpire.CommandType = 1
UpdateExpire.CommandTimeout = 0
UpdateExpire.Prepared = true
UpdateExpire.Execute()
%>
This produces this error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '12'.
And it errors at the UpdateExpire.Execute() line.
The code was generated by Dreamweaver.

View 5 Replies View RelatedLoading Datetime Data Using Bcp/bulk Insert
Dec 11, 1998Short version:
The best/fastest way to load large amounts of data from a comma delimited text file into an SQL Server table. Where the text file contains date fields in ccyy/mm/dd format and the SQL Server table defines those fields as datetime data types.
Details:
When I attempt to load files (using either bcp or BULK INSERT) containing datetime data the load process errors because the datetime fields in my text file are in ccyy/mm/dd format and the default format for SQL Server is mm/dd/yy. I have been unable to change the default format by using the SET DATEFORMAT statement (apparently the SET DATEFORMAT statement will not work for bcp because bcp runs outside of the SQL Server session???).
The only alternatives that I have come up with are: 1) Change the format of date fields in the text file from ccyy/mm/dd to mm/dd/ccyy. 2) Create a temporary table that defines the date fields as a char(n) datatype. Then load the data into the temp table. Then SET the DATEFORMAT to ccyy/mm/dd. Then copy the temp table into the permanent table (the permanent table using datetime data types).
Both of these alternatives would require additional processing time. Since this is a process that loads large amounts of data on a monthly (soon to be weekly) basis, speed is of the essence.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!

Just to make things easier on anyone who tries to help me solve this problem, the field that causes my Bulk insert statement to choke contains the data: "1996-06-13 14:51:08.0". Why is this happening? Any thoughts on how to solve it? I have been scouring help articles all day with no resolution to this problem.
Problem With Bulk Insert And Datetime Format
Feb 5, 2008Hi there,
I got a few *.csv files which I have to import in a table. The Insert looks like this:
bulk insert actocashdb.dbo.MyTable
from 'c:UpdatesPLUArtikel_01.csv'
with ( fieldterminator = ';',
DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
tablock,
codepage = 'ACP'
)
There is a field which contains a Date and Time in US-Format (e.g. 08/15/2007 03:15:00 PM). Some of my SQL - Servers
(in fact they are just MSDE) are configured as German language. So, when I try to Insert the File I get a Type Mismatch Error, because the MSDE awaits the Date in German Format (e.g. 15.08.2007 15:15:00). Are there any
options somewhere so I can Insert this Date? NOTE: It is not possible to reconfigure the MSDE to English.
Any help would be appreciated!

HOW DO I: Insert Nulls Into SQL DateTime Field Stored In SQL DB From A Web UI Textbox
Mar 29, 2006I’m looking for feedback on the Best/Right way to Insert nulls into SQL dateTime field in SQL DB from a web UI textbox.
Option 1: Presently implemented:
Dim dtFollowUpDate = IIf(dtDateFollowUp.Text = "", System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime.Null, dtDateFollowUp.Text)
Although ithis does what is needed it generates the following inner exception
ParamValue {System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime} Object[System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime] {System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTime} System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDateTimeDayTicks
<error: an exception of type: {System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlNullValueException} occurred> Integer IsNull True Boolean
Option 2:
Dim dtFollowUpDate = IIf(dtDateFollowUp.Text = "", System.DBNull.Value, dtDateFollowUp.Text)
No exceptions, no problems that I have seen yet.
Option 3:
Dim dtNull As System.Data.SqlTypes.INullable
Dim dtFollowUpDate = IIf(dtDateFollowUp.Text = "", dtNull, dtDateFollowUp.Text)
No exceptions, no problems that I have seen yet.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

DateTime.Now, An Allowed Null Field, And My Insert Function From My Dataset
Jun 6, 2008I have a table adapter for one of my SQL2005 tables, and in two different fields I accept a date time. Now 99% of the times, new rows to this table will be filled out using DateTIme.Now(), as a Time Stamp is what I'm going for.
Here is the line of code in question...cops_current_data_adapter.Insert(ProductOrder, Convert.ToInt16(Session["StationId"].ToString()),
PartNumber, DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now, Convert.ToInt16(qty), 0);
The second DateTime.Now is the one that can be null, and it's throwing a formatting error everytime I try and drop it in there. It's a FormatException, and there's not much more to the example except unhelpful tips like be careful when conveting a string to a dateTime, which I'm not doing. Needless to say for the code to compile, and then throw a Format error at runtime is a bit frustraiting.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated
Insert Adjusted Datetime Into Sql Field Based On User Locale
Jul 29, 2004Is there a way to adjust a date and time depending on the users locale before inserting into the database?
Users login in and their country of residence is stored in the database on signup. My server is in the US and I want to reset part of the users db record when it's the end of the day in their country so I need to enter the date and time into the db plus or minus the time difference, is there a function written to do this already or would i need to write my own?
