View 2 RepliesHi all,
I am generating a report dynamically using ReportViewer control. I use a SELECT query to fill the dataset which in turn is used by the ReportViewer to display records. One of the fields is [End Date] and is a DateTime in SQL Server. When the ReportViewer is populated, the End Date field shows the time also with the date. How can I remove that time part? I have used these methods and I want to keep the value as DateTime only and not convert to a string or something.
These don't work for me: CAST(FLOOR(CAST(m.[End Date] AS float)) AS datetime)
DATEADD(day, DATEDIFF(day, '20000101', [End Date]), '20000101')
dateadd(day,datediff(day,0,[End Date]),0)
Please can someone help.
Thanks.
i have a field that is char and data like '11/12/2004 00:00:11'

How can i remove the tim from a date. date/time 2007/10/01 01:00 to just 2007/10/01

I have a function that accepts 2 DATETIME parameters. When the user passes a time other than midnight, the function returns a different result. Is there a simple way to strip the time from the variables?
Here's the declaration:
ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[NumBusinessDays]
(
-- Add the parameters for the function here
@StartDate DATETIME,
@EndDate DATETIME
)
Does anybody knows how to remove the time part of the datetime format?
some tables in my database's using datetime format, and the time's not default (12:00:00 AM) but it save the exact time.
Example : 7/17/2007 11:02:06 AM
when i use datetime for parameters, there's no value returned. While it's impossible for users to entered the exact time when they want to preview reports.
So, how to remove the time part in datetime format?
Thanks!
I have two columns COLUMNA & COLUMNB
They both store date & time. In COLUMNA, I would like do delete the time, in COLUMNB, I would like to delete the date.
They are stored like this YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
Hi,I am creating creating a table with a Date column dd-mm-yyyy. But Icant seem to find a SQL function that just returns today's date.getDate() returns the time as well so I cant use it.The reason is simply that I want to update/overwrite over and overagain all records from current day but not touch the ones fromyesterday etc and with the timestamp in there I just end up addingmore and more rows for the same day.In other words I only want to preserve rows are from yesterday orolder but overwrite ones from today.Any help will be appricated.Thank you!Yas

What I want to do is remove the time component from a datetime value. That is to say I want 2008-04-18 00:00:00.000 intead of 2008-04-18 13:46:57.983. I have heard that the only way to do this is to convert the datetime to a string, strip off the time portion and then convert back to a date. Isn't there a simpler way?
I recenly stumbled upon this construct: { d '2008-04-18' } . It appears that this might accomplish what I am lookig for above except that it appears to only except literal strings and not variables. I think this construct comes from the ODBC "improvements" realm so I am leary of depending on it as I am not sure it is standard. Any insights and links to more documentation on using this new, for me, construct would be appreciate.
Hi,I need a way of changing the following SQL statement so that the dates are without the hh:mm:ss tt:"Select DISTINCT([StartDate]) From [Events]"How can this be done?Thanks,Curt.

I have uninstalled the CTP version of the SQL Server express so that I can install the released version but CTP version is still listed in the add/remove program list but without the change/remove button. I have been to different sites to find information on cleaning this up and I have ran all the uninstall tool I can find but the problem still prevails. I cannot install the released version without completely getting rid of the CTP version. Please help anyone.
Thanks

I need help,
I am having a hard time removing my SQL instance inside the Add/Remove program. After i select the SQL Instance name and then I tried to remove it but it won't allow me to delete it. There isn't any error message or whatsoever. Actually, when i try to log it in my SQL Management studio, that certain sql instance name is not existing according to the message box. Is there any way to remove the Sql Instance in my system?
I appreciate your help, Thanks

Hi all,
I have created a report in SSRS 2005 which is being viewed by users from different Time Zones.
I have a dataset which has a field of type datetime (UTC). Now I would like to display this Date according to the User Time Zone.
For example if the date is August 07, 2007 10:00 AM UTC,
then I would like to display it as August 07, 2007 03:30 PM IST if the user Time Zone is IST.
Similarly for other Time Zones it should display the time accordingly.
Is this possible in SSRS 2005?
Any pointers will be usefull...
Thanks in advance

Sample Table
USE [Testing]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[Testing] Script Date: 4/25/2014 11:08:18 AM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[Code] ....
It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.
Is there a way to keep track in real time on how long a stored procedure is running for? So what I want to do is fire off a trace in a stored procedure if that stored procedure is running for over like 5 minutes.

I am using VS2005 (VB) to develop a PPC WM5.0 Program. And I am using SQLCE 3.0. My PPC Hardware is in 400MHz.
The question is when the program try to insert the first record into sdf database after each time the program started. It takes a long time. Does anyone know why and how can I fix it?
I will load the whole database into a dataset when the program start and do all the "Insert", "Update", "Delete" in this dataset and fill it into database after each action.
cn.Open()
sda = New SqlCeDataAdapter(SQL, cn) 'SQL = Select * From Table
scb = New SqlCeCommandBuilder(sda)
sda.Update(dataset)
cn.Close()
I check the sda.update(), it takes about 0.08s for filling one record into database normally. But:
1. Start the PPC Program
2. Load DB into dataset
3. Create a ONE new record in dataset
4. Fill back to DB
When I take this four steps everytime, the filling time is almost 1s or even more!
Actually, 0.08s is just a normal case. Sometimes, it still takes over 1s to filling back a dataset which only inserted one record when the program is running. (Even all inserted records are exactly the same in data jsut different in the integer key)
However, when I give up the dataset and using the following code:
cn.Open()
Dim cmd As New SqlCeCommand(SQL, cn) ' I have build the insert SQL before (Insert Into Table values(XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX All field)
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
cn.Close()
StartTime = Environment.TickCount
I found that it is still the same that the first inserted record takes more time, but just about 0.2s. And the normal insert time is around 0.02s. It is 4 times faster!!!

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).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to take a temporary table that has various times stored in a text field (4:30 pm, 11:00 am, 5:30 pm, etc.), convert it to miltary time then cast it as an integer with an update statement kind of like:

We are using SQL Server 2008 as our database and use Access as a GUI. I am looking to create a form in Access where employees can access their time card and request changes from management. I want to use the format from the attached screen shot for the form. I pretty much know how to do it all, the only point of complication is trying to figure out the easiest way to get the transaction punch record data on employee_punch_record into a format where I can easily populate the form in the horizontal format you see in the screen shot.
I am not super strong in SQL, but figure I can do it using a formatting table of some sort. quick and easy way to move transaction records into a more horizontally oriented record?
Hi all,
I have a very simple time series model which processing works fine without any problem. However when I run the following query
SELECT
[TimeSeries].[PriceChange],
[TimeSeries].[Symbol],
PredictTimeSeries(PriceChange, -3, 2)
From
[TimeSeries]
WHERE
[TimeSeries].[Symbol] = 'x'
I get the following error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services
------------------------------
Error (Data mining): A time series prediction was requested with a start time further in the past than the internal models of the mining model, TimeSeries, specified in the HISTORIC_MODEL_GAP and HISTORIC_MODEL_COUNT parameters can process.
The following is the excerpt of the minding model script related to the two parameters:
<AlgorithmParameters>
<AlgorithmParameter>
<Name>MISSING_VALUE_SUBSTITUTION</Name>
<Value xsi:type="xsdtring">Previous</Value>
</AlgorithmParameter>
<AlgorithmParameter>

</AlgorithmParameter>
<AlgorithmParameter>
<Name>HISTORIC_MODEL_COUNT</Name>
<Value xsi:type="xsd:int">10</Value>

</AlgorithmParameters>
These HISTORIC_MODEL_GAP (1) and HISTORIC_MODEL_COUNT (10) should accommodate PredictTimeSeries(PriceChange, -3, 2). Could anyone shed some light on this?
we have problems with our SQL Reporting Service 2012 (SSRS) server . We have setup Kerberos delegation between SSRS and the database server (SQL Server Always-on cluster) so users are authenticated down to the database. The issue occurs from time to time that SSRS loses the ability to delegate the user credentials to the database. At this point in time the Report Server logs contain rejected database connections because of ANONYMOUS logon. After restarting SSRS the problem is gone.

I have a table which has a few fields, one being "datetime_traded". I need to write a query which returns the row which has the closest time (down to second) given a date/time. I'm using MS SQL.
Here's what I have so far:
Code:
select * from TICK_D
where datetime_traded = (select min( abs(datediff(second,datetime_traded , Convert(datetime,'2005-05-30:09:31:09')) ) ) from TICK_D)
But I get an error - "The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.".
Does anyone know how i could do this? Thanks a lot for any help!
Ok, so I have some horribly convuluted SQL that I would love to optomize. I'm not happy leaving it in it's current state, that's for sure!
I'm currently working on our test bed servers, so obviously my stats are out because of the "crap-ness" (yes, that's the technical term) of the hardware, but still, it should NEVER need to take this long!!
Basically, the issue arises in the nasty join to the career table (one employee can have multiple career lines). Just to make things complicated, employees can have any number of career records on any given date, these can even be input for future career events. The following SQL picks out the latest-current career date for each employee based on the career_date being <= GetDate() and the date of entry for this date being the greatest.
E.g.
career_date | datetime_created
2009-01-01 | 2006-05-05 13:55:21.000
2007-01-01 | 2006-05-05 13:54:18.000
2007-01-01 | 2006-05-05 13:52:55.000
From the above we want to return
2007-01-01 | 2006-05-05 13:54:18.000

Oh judt to point out that "employee" is a view on the "Table 'people'."
EDIT: I know it's pointing out the obvious, but I'm pulling out the managers "DN" from AD_Import based on the manager_number and employeeNumber matching.
I need a formula to calculate the time (let's say in minutes) between two dates/times.
The problem is that I have to exclude the time between 06 PM and 06 AM and also exclude the time in the weekend (Saturday and Sunday).
I will use this in a couple of reports made in Reporting Services.
If anyone have an algoritm that could be modified for this and is willing to share this I would be very grateful.
Many thanks!

Hi all,
I have created several global temp tables to cache some intermediate results ...
However, it seems that after a while those tables will be dropped by SQL Server 2005 automatically (I have not restarted the server and no drop table statement ever executed against those tables). Is this a feature by design? How to make those global temp tables persistence to next service restart?
Thanks,
Ning

At the moment I already added the DataSet I'm gonna be using. I have 2 date parameters Start Time and End Time.
What I would like to do  for the report is to only pull results greater than 48 hours to the report
How can I accomplish this?
