I know there must be a way to do this....
I want to select only the date portion of a datetime field. the date normally shows as similar to '2004-01-01 09:39:52.000'
I need to return just '2004-01-01'. using convert and cast returns the dates as 'JAN 01 2004' - this won't sort correctly, so it is of no use. any suggestions?
thanks,
john
I am trying to match records that are >= the current date. I have tried using:
SELECT DISTINCT name
FROM table
WHERE datefield >= DATEPART(month, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(day, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(year, GETDATE())
ORDER BY name
but this is not giving me the result that I am looking for. What is the best way to match a DateTime field type using the current date without the time?
I embedded a SQL query in excel that gets some datetime fields like "TASK_FINISH_DATE" .
How can I convert a datetime field to a date field in SQL in a way that excel will recognize it as a date type and not a text type?
I tried:
CONVERT(varchar(8),TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CONVERT(Date,TASK_FINISH_DATE ,3)
CAST(TASK_FINISH_DATE as date)
**all of the above returned text objectes in excel and not date objects.
I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package
using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP
errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them
as datetime but it failed.
What options do I have that will work?
Good morning...
I begin with SQL, I would like to add a field that will be date like 21/01/2000.
Actually i find just "datetime" format but give me the format 21/01/2000 01:01:20.
How to do for having date and time in two different field.
Sorry for my english....

Hi
What is the best practice to get the date from a smalldatetime field without the time.
The table contains 5 minute readings for energy consumption in the column period.
Now i need to get all the readings form some dates.
SELECT dbo.TBL_Data.*
FROM dbo.TBL_Data
WHERE (Period IN (CONVERT(DATETIME, '2003-12-31', 102), CONVERT(DATETIME, '2004-01-01', 102)))
this result contains only the readings for the timestamp 00:00
so how to select the whole day ?
kind regards

Hi,
I have used smalldatetime datatype to store my date and time values. i want to store just the date or time but the problem is it stores both the date and time. For eg, if i add the the date 03/11/2004, it also the stores the current time automatically. so the new value will be something like 03/11/2004 10:00:00 AM where i want just 03/11/2004. further problem is even though i managed to store just the date like 03/11/2004 in the database, whole date and time shows up when i display it in my pages.
any help will be appreciated.
thanx,
OK, I know this is really simple but I can't get my statement to pull just the date from a datetime field!
Here's my query:
select *
from tblPR
where date between convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate())+1,getdate()),103)
and convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate()),dateadd(month,1,getdate())),103)
I get no errors but I get the timestamp too and I only want the date.
Where am I going wrong?!
Thanks in advance,

We want to add a default date to our database tables. Looking at other database samples people use all sorts of dates to add as default date e.g. 1/1/1997 or the getdate() function.
Is it good practice to set a default date and what should the default date be????

Hi, I have a problem when I insert a date in a datetime field in a MSSQLServer.
That's my problem:
if the server is in english version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")
instead if the server is in italian version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
Is there a way to insert a date in standard way, without knowing the server version?
bye and thanks in advance
How is that I have stuff like...

"Date and time data from January 1, 1753, through December 31, 9999, with an accuracy of three-hundredths of a second, or 3.33 milliseconds."

I will pass in the @PlantID int, @IngredientID int, and @Days int. I want to sum the AmountBatched from both tables and display the total for each given day. The @Days will indicate the number of days to query off of previous to the current date. I would also like to eliminate weekends from the results. For example when stored procedure is run passing the following values @PlantID = 1, @IngredientID = 8, and @Days = 14. If date procedure is run is 5/9/2012, would like to summarize for 4/25/2012 to 5/8/2012 excluding weekends if possible.
Results
Date – AmountBatched
4/25/2012 – 0
4/26/2012 – 0
4/27/2012 -- 0
4/30/2012 -- 2100
5/1/2012 -- 2000
5/2/2012 -- 0
5/3/2012 -- 4500
5/4/2012 -- 11000
5/7/2012 -- 25000
5/8/2012 – 8000
Notice 4/28, 4/29, 5/5, and 5/6 are eliminated from the results, which are weekends. Is this possible in a sql stored procedure? I am writing an app in vb .net and am hoping to get the results I need in a single call to sql server and not have to make several calls back. I have not worked with advanced datetime methods in sql server before.
I have a datetime variable coming from my ASP.NET application that hasa time portion. I give my users the option to perform an equals,greater than, less than, or between comparison. The trouble comes inthe way the application builds the criteria string. The WHERE clausepassed in is in the format, "(start_dt = '2005/05/16 07:00:00.000')".What I want to do is only compare the date portion of start_dt to thedate portion of the passed in time. Manipulating the start_dt with thebuilt-in SQL functions isn't a problem, but altering the date passed infrom the ASP.NET would be a massive framework change in the app.Is there any way to only compare the date portions of both the SQLfield and the passed in value?Thanks.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi there ;
This Problem is goin to make me crazy!
I've got a table with couple of fields, 2 of them are DateTime, in Sql Express 05 .
I used asp.net 2.0 to insert datetime values, directly, using sth like DateTime.Now.ToString() .
i use 2 selects as follows :
1)select * from X where Date1='8/9/2006 11:17:41 AM'
2)select * from X where Date2='8/9/2006 11:17:41 AM'
#1 is OK, but the second one returns a row with all columns set to NULL .
(X is the name of the table)
Thanks in advance

I am trying to pull results from an SQL Server DB into an dataset where a particular field (SMALLDATETIME) is within a particular date range. The code I was using worked fine when the database was in Access. I have made several changes already but am still getting 0 results returned when there is data that should be returned.
I was using in Access:
Dim StrSQL = "SELECT ID FROM myTable WHERE myDateField>=#" & startDate & "# AND myDateField<=#" & stopDate & "# ORDER BY ID"
I have changed this for SQL Server to:
Dim StrSQL = "SELECT ID FROM myTable WHERE myDateField>='01/01/2003 00:00:01' AND myDateField<='01/01/2004 23:59:59' ORDER BY ID"
But I am always returned 0 results even if the date range should return plenty of data. I have also tried using the BETWEEN structure with the same result.
Is there a particular format for the date I am comparing with?
Am I missing something else in my query?
The connection / permissions and everything else are correct as I can read and write data to the database in numerous other pages. It is just this date comparison that is not working.
Many thanks for any help or comments you can provide.
Hi,
I have rows with a datetime column which spans many years. I am wondering is there a more simple way to select those rows where the datetime column is in a particular year. For example...
where datetime_column.year = '2007'
I know i can use the 'between' sql etc...but am wondering if theres something more straightforward im not aware of.
Thanks..
