Subtracting Datetime In Stored Procedure And Displayed In Hh:mm:ss Format
Nov 22, 2007
Hi there,
I am trying to write a stored procedure in which I will retrieve SessionStartDate, SessionEndDate, and Duration (where Duration is calculdated by subtracting SessionEndDate from SessionStartDate).
I was duration in the format of hours:minutes:seconds.
The stored procedure is pasted below. I am getting the following error.
Syntax error converting datetime from character string.
Any ideas?
==============================
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_ActiveSessions_UsersBrowsingDurationByDate_List (
@websiteID AS int = 0,
@SelectedDateFrom AS dateTime,
@SelectedDateTo AS dateTime
) AS
IF DateDiff(d,@SelectedDateTo,@SelectedDateFrom)=0
begin
set @SelectedDateFrom=null
end
IF ISNULL(@SelectedDateTo, '') = ''
begin
SET @SelectedDateTo = @SelectedDateFrom
end
SET @SelectedDateTo = DATEADD(d, 1, @SelectedDateTo)
SELECT UserID As 'User ID', SessionStartDate As 'Session Start Date', SessionEndDate AS 'Session End Date', ExitPageTitle As 'Exit Page Title', NumberOfPagesVisited As 'Number of Pages Visited', Convert(datetime, (CONVERT(DATETIME, SessionEndDate, 24) - CONVERT(DATETIME, SessionStartDate, 24)), 101) As 'Duration' FROM ActiveSessions
WHERE UserID != 'Anonymous'
GROUP BY SessionID, UserID, SessionStartDate, SessionEndDate, NumberOfPagesVisited, ExitPageTitle
HAVING (min(SessionStartDate) BETWEEN @SelectedDateFrom AND @SelectedDateTo AND min(SessionEndDate) BETWEEN @SelectedDateFrom AND @SelectedDateTo)
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ReportChart]@Num int,@patID char(16) ASbegin if @Num=2 Begin select * from table1 where patientid=@patID End else If @Num=1 Begin select * from table2 where patientid=@patID End end
While using the above stored procedure, when i bind it with Dataset. The fields corresponding to table1 are displayed in the Fields Tab of the Dataset whereas the Fields corresponding to table2 are not displayed. Please help me out . Thanks In Advance Regards Navdeep
I have a Column in my data that gives a financial period value in the YYYYMM format. i.e. an asset was re-valued in a particular period for example 201301. I need to find out the number(count) of periods(months) between another given period for example current period (201403) and the period provided in the table i.e. 201301.
HiI'm not sure if this is a .net or a SQL issue. My development machine is using SQL 2005 while the live server is SQL2000. I have a smallmoney field in the database for holding a house rent. The following is used to display the contents on the page<asp:Label ID="lblrent" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("rent", "(0:0.00)") %>'></asp:Label>In development, the number is displayed correctly, with the decimal place, .e.g. 200.50 but on the live server the number is displayed as 20050,00. What I have noticed in the database is that the number is held differentlySQL 2005 - 200.5000SQL 2000 - 20050Is there a difference between SQL 2000 and 2005? How do I get around this problem?

I have got an SQL server stored procedure, and I would like to get this stored procedure, dbo.SpDate_Time_Minute_Today below executed against a matching or exact datetime from the database tables, PRODUCT_SALES.
if (conn != null) conn.Close(); return xmlDoc.InnerXml; }
I'm assuming this is because my Date is in the wrong format when .NET passes it. I've tested the stored procedure directly in SQL Server Managent Studio and it works (Format of date is '5/15/2008 9:16:23 PM').
I have date coming to one page as a string in the following format"May 4 2005 12:00AM" I need to query one of my tables using this date in combination of other nondate values. How can I convert this date into valid sql server datetime format before I query a database tables Please help
Hello everyone I have a stored procedure that I am trying to save datetime data to at the moment I can create a string that will output 25/05/2007 18:30 Does anyone know the best way to get this into the correct format for my SP parameter cmdPublish.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@datPublishDate", System.Data.SqlDbType.DateTime)); cmdPublish.Parameters["@datPublishDate"].Value = ???? Thanks
hello, I have a stored procedure being called from my class. All values are ok, except for the DateTime value. What am i doing wrong here ? Am wondering if its the date size of 50 I put there or what ? command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@dob", SqlDbType.DateTime,50, dob1)); Error Message Compiler ErrorMessage: CS1502: The best overloaded method match for 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter.SqlParameter(string, System.Data.SqlDbType, int, string)' has some invalid arguments thanks Ehi
I have a stored procedure called from ASP code, and when it is executed, the stored procedure takes in a date as an attribute.
But since the stored procedure call is really just a string in the code, it is taking in the value as a string. So in my stored procedure, I want to convert a string value to a date value.
In a VB.NET script, I am adding the dbnull value to a parameter that will populate a smalldatetime column: cmd.Parameters.Add("@unitHdApprove", System.DBNull.Value.ToString)
The stored procedure then defines the input as smalldatetime: @unitHdApprove smalldatetime,
However, the result is that the record is inserted with 1/1/1900 as the date value, instead of <NULL>.
I'm guessing that this occurs because the conversion of a '' to date will return 1/1/1900, and VB requries the parameter value to be a string (at least with this syntax), so System.DBNull.Value.ToString really equals ''.
I've rewritten the proc to accept the date as a string instead, and then for each date, cast it to a smalldatetime or set it to null as is appropriate. But this is a really bulky way to do things with more than a few dates! Is there any way to change what is in my VB code so that the procedure will insert the actual null value?
Ok, i am using the convert function to get the date format from my datetime column. My problem is when C# try's to pull the column name the column name is not sent in the query. When I run the query in the query analyzer the column name is blank in the result window. How can I get the date from the record with out losing the name of my column in the query. My data binding needs the name of the column to bind the data to the drop down list control. Here is the statement:
SQL statement SELECT DISTINCT convert(datetime, eventDT, 110) FROM tblRecognition
Hi,When I pass a date time parameter the stored procedure takes about 45seconds, when I hard code the parameter it returns in 1 second. How canI rewrite my stored procedure?@createddatelower datetimeWHERE dbo.tblCaseHistory.eventdate > dateadd(d,-7,@createddatelower )AND dbo.tblCaseHistory.eventdate < dateadd(d,-6,@createddatelower ) (45seconds)vs.WHERE dbo.tblCaseHistory.eventdate > dateadd(d,-7,'11/15/05') ANDdbo.tblCaseHistory.eventdate < dateadd(d,-6,'11/15/05') (1 second)thanks for your help,Paul
I'm having a problem with inserting a datetime value into a database using VB.net and a Stored Procedure. Below is my stored procedure code and VB.net code. Could somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong ... I am almost frustrated to tears .
Stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.SPTest @testvalue DATETIME AS INSERT INTO tbl_Rates VALUES (1.2, 1.3, @testvalue, 'EUR/USD') RETURN 1
VB.NET code:
Dim RatesTA As New RatesDataSetTableAdapters.RatesTableAdapter Dim ReturnVal As Object ReturnVal = RatesTA.SPTest(Now) Console.WriteLine(CType(ReturnVal, Integer))
When I run this the ReturnVal is 0.
I should also mention that my system uses the dd/mm/yyyy date format (Australian) and I am using VB.NET Express and SQL Server Express.
My scenario is that I want to change the default SQL server format in my stored procedure more preferably only during the course of stored procedure execution (not permanent changes does any one have idea that how will I able to achieve this simple task...
Hi Everyone,I've been battling this for two days with no luck. I'm using SQLServer 2000.Here's the mystery: I've got a stored procedure that takes a singlevarchar parameter to determine how the result set is sorted. Here itis:CREATE PROCEDURE spDemo @SortField varchar(30)ASSELECT dtmTimeStamp, strEmpName, strOld, strNew, strActionDescFROM ActivityLogORDER BY CASE @SortFieldWHEN 'dtmTimeStamp' THEN dtmTimeStampWHEN 'strEmpName' THEN strEmpNameWHEN 'strOld' THEN strOldWHEN 'strNew' THEN strNewWHEN 'strActionDesc' THEN strActionDescENDGOWhen I execute the stored procedure in the Query Analyzer, it worksperfectly ONLY IF the @SortField parameter is 'dtmTimeStamp' or'strNew'. When passing in any of the other three possible values for@SortField, I get the following error:Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Procedure spDemo, Line 4Syntax error converting datetime from character string.Now instead of executing the stored procedure, if I copy and paste theSELECT statement directly into the Query Analyzer (after removing theCASE statement and manually trying each different value of @SortField),it works fine for all five possible values of SortField.Even though the error points to Line 4 of the stored procedure, itseems to me that the CASE statement is causing problems for some, butnot all, values of the @SortField parameter.Any ideas?Thanks,Jimmy
Hi can anyone help me with the format of my stored procedure below. I have two tables (Publication and PublicationAuthors). PublicaitonAuthors is the linking table containing foreign keys PublicaitonID and AuthorID. Seeming as one Publication can have many authors associated with it, i need the stored procedure to create the a single row in the publication table and then recognise that multiple authors need to be inserted into the linking table for that single PublicationID. For this i have a listbox with multiple selection =true. At the moment with the storedprocedure below it is creating two rows in PublicaitonID, and then inserting two rows into PublicationAuthors with only the first selected Author from the listbox??? Can anyone help???ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.StoredProcedureTest2 @publicationID Int=null,@typeID smallint=null, @title nvarchar(MAX)=null,@authorID smallint=null AS BEGIN TRANSACTION SET NOCOUNT ON DECLARE @ERROR Int --Create a new publication entry INSERT INTO Publication (typeID, title) VALUES (@typeID, @title) --Obtain the ID of the created publication SET @publicationID = @@IDENTITY SET @ERROR = @@ERROR --Create new entry in linking table PublicationAuthors INSERT INTO PublicationAuthors (publicationID, authorID) VALUES (@publicationID, @authorID) SET @ERROR = @@ERROR IF (@ERROR<>0) ROLLBACK TRANSACTION ELSE COMMIT TRANSACTION
