I need to change this to the format 1:30
Any idea how to do this?

What is the best data type to use when tracking hours, for example;
2.30 < this is stored in DB
(two hours and thirty minutes)
5.15 < this is stored in DB
(5 hours and fifteen minutes)

I have two field and I need to find the sum I guess of them. One is called the clm_dout (process date) and the other one is clm_rcvd (received Date). These are both date and time fields and it looks like this 2006-03-17 00:00:00.000. I need to create a formula that wiil i guess give me the difference and create it into hour and minutes because I an trying to create a turn around report. this is what I had...
TimeValue({clm_doubt}-{clm_rcvd})
This is not working for me. Can someone give me a suggestion please.
Thanks!

Hi
Can anyone help me convert a number to give the result in hours and minutes? For example 195 as 3:15 or 210 as 3:30. We are trying to create a report showing hours and minutes worked without having to export to Excel.
I've had a look around the net and this seems to be quite a difficult function in SQL Server.
Any guidance much appreciated.

Hi There,
I would like to find the sum of a column with a date format of '01:10:10' which is the hours:minutes:seconds from multiple rows.
For instance, "01:50:10" + "01:20:5" = "3:10:15"
Any ideas?

Currently my script is using the below mentioned query to find the time difference.
DATEDIFF(HH,DATEADD(SS,hcreacion,fcreacion) ,DATEADD(SS,hcerrar,fcreacion))
If there is 1 hr 30 minutes time difference, I am getting 2 hours as output. But we need 1.30 as output. is there any way to achieve this?

In BIDS, I created a time dimension using the wizard. Unfortunately, the template used by the wizard does not contain Hours, Minutes and Seconds; so, I added them using the designer. Now, when I try to build, deploy and process I get the error: Unable to find matching TimeAttributeType. Cannot anyone explain why this is happening and what can be done about? Is there a template available somewhere that does create time dimensions with time and not just dates?

Dear all,
I need to ignore the hours minutes and seconds elements of a datetime field - I've got a way of doing this in my select statement but it seems to be this can't be the most efficient way!
CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(nchar(10), db.tab.field, 101)) AS date_key
Is there a better way?

I have written a function that returns the number of Days, Hours and minutes from a given number of minutes. On testinf the results are close but not quite there. Can anyone see where I have gone wrong or is there an easier way of doing this? Code is as follows:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.GetTimeBetweenLong
(@StartTime DateTime, @EndTime DateTime, @CurrentDate DateTime)
RETURNS VarChar(50) AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @TotalTime Numeric
DECLARE @Minutes Numeric
DECLARE @Hours Numeric
DECLARE @Days Numeric
DECLARE @MinutesInDays Numeric
IF @EndTime IS NULL
BEGIN
SET @Days = DATEDIFF(Day, @StartTime, @CurrentDate)
SET @Hours = DATEDIFF(Hour, @StartTime, @CurrentDate) - (@Days * 24)
SET @Minutes = DATEDIFF(Minute, @StartTime, @CurrentDate) - ((@Days * 24)*60) - (@Hours * 60)
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @Days = DATEDIFF(Day, @StartTime, @EndTime)
SET @Hours = DATEDIFF(Hour, @StartTime, @EndTime) - (@Days * 24)
SET @Minutes = DATEDIFF(Minute, @StartTime, @EndTime) - ((@Days * 24)*60) - (@Hours * 60)
END
IF(@Days <0)
BEGIN
SET @Days = @Days - @Days - @Days
END
IF (@Hours < 0)
BEGIN
SET @Hours = @Hours - @Hours - @Hours
END
IF (@Minutes <0)
BEGIN
SET @Minutes = @Minutes - @Minutes - @Minutes
END
RETURN CONVERT(nVarChar(10),@Days) + ' Days, ' + CONVERT(nVarChar(5), @Hours) + ' Hours, ' + CONVERT(nVarCHar(5), @Minutes) + ' Mins'
END

Dear All,
I have a problem formatting a field in Reporting Services (minutes to hours).
I have a field called duration which stores time in whole minutes only. I can format this into hours within mssql using the following:
cast(sn.duration/60 as varchar(5)) + ':' + RIGHT('0' + cast(sn.duration%60 as varchar(2)), 2)
But I need to have totals and average columns in my report, which means that the data must come through to RS in the minutes format so I can perform the calculations there.
I have the first part (I think!!):
=string.format("{0:0}",Fields!SalesTime.Value / 60) + ":"
But I cannot get the minutes part working!
Any help would be gratefully received.
Dan

I found in another forum that if I take the seconds and divide them by 15 then round up and multiply them by 4 I can get this done, but I can't figure out how to work it into my select statement. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated. dbo.SLPTRANS.TimeSpent is the field I am trying to convert.
SELECT dbo.SLPTRANS.ClientID, SUM(dbo.SLPTRANS.TransValue) AS Expr1, dbo.SLPTRANS.TimeSpent AS Expr2
FROM dbo.SLPTRANS INNER JOIN
dbo.INVOICE ON dbo.SLPTRANS.InvoiceID = dbo.INVOICE.RecordID
GROUP BY dbo.SLPTRANS.ClientID
HAVING (dbo.SLPTRANS.ClientID = 405)

Hi all ,
What datatype should I take to store time in a table -- datetime , float or decimal?
my requirement is to store "Worked Hours in a day by an employee" in the field say, 9 hrs and 30 mins.
I should be able to manipulate data in this field such as total hours present in the month, extra hours worked in a day (considering 9 hrs as standard time),less hours worked in a day, and so on

security ids seem to be made up of at least 3 32 bit unsigned numbers and a few smaller numbers. We believe their lengths vary. We dont mind dropping the "S" from the front. What data type do you recommend be used for their storage? We expect only limited joins and user visibility on this column. We may wish to create an index on this column. We think varchar and varbinary are the two major choices.
