How can I format a timespan? I have this expression:
Fields!endTime.Value-Fields!startTime.Value
and I need to display as hh:mms. I have been trying to use Format and FormatDateTime but have had no luck yet. Unfortunately, all the examples I have been able to find relate to formatting an actual DateTime, not a timespan. Any help would be much appreciated!
I need to Add a Check in the database to ensure that user can only enter up to 20 entries to Database in a period of 10 minutes. Basically, to guard against people using scripts to add data to the database ( instead of using CAPTCHAE on the front end) what we want to do is restrict user to entering at most 20 transactions in 10 Minutes.How do I handle or do this in SQl Server 2005??
What I figure to do is right after I do an INSERT into the table, I Select the last 20 entries into that same table and then Calculate the Total time it took to add those 20 transactions and set the righ flag.
1) How do I select last 20 entries into a table??
2) How do I calculate the total time that elapsed between adding the first of those 20 records and the last??
Thanks in Advance
I'm new to MS SQL having used MySQL for several years now. I just can't figure out the syntax on counting or selecting rows
a) in the Last X (days, weeks, months...)
or
b) between "date X" and "date Y"
I've tried this to get the last week:
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM contacts
WHERE CONVERT(datetime,timestamp) < (GETDATE() - DATEADD(DAY,7,GETDATE()))
...but I always get a total that includes rows outside the span.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
I have a table that stores start and end datetime fields per room, per employee.
I may have 4 employees in a room at the same time but they did not all come in the room at the same time and may not leave at the same time either.
I need to calculate the NET number of minutes/hours spent in the room. There may be holes in the timespans when the room is unoccupied. The range could cover more than one day.
Ex:
Room Emp Start End
1 001 2008-01-01 09:00 2008-01-01 11:00
1 002 2008-01-01 09:00 2008-01-01 10:00
1 003 2008-01-01 08:00 2008-01-01 11:00
1 001 2008-01-01 13:00 2008-01-01 14:00
1 002 2008-01-02 13:00 2008-01-02 14:00
The net usage time of room 1 is 5 hours.
The gross total is 8 hours.
Is there a way to calculate this NET total in MSSQL T-SQL or maybe by using a SPROC?
I need this to to bind as a datasource to a Crystal Report document to calculate room availability statistics.
Thanks

Hi All,
I am stuck at one place, where I have to convert CSV format file data into SAP IDOC format file. In SSIS we don't have any such SAP adapter (though we have .NET Data Provider for mySAP suite [SSIS SAP Adapter] but this is still not fully supported by Microsoft, plus it doesn't have feature to convert data into IDOC format) that can do this. Can someone here please provide me some pointers on any third party adapters available in market to do this job or if anyone has already developed some custom approach to achieve this task?
Your quick response on this is highly appreciated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.
I've played with various combinations of CAST & CONVERT but haven't been able to get it to work.

I am trying get my VB6 application to insert a record into a table (SQL Express) which has a datetime column but it would not process if the data format is differ to *American Date format*.
The date() function in VB returns 15/11/2006 which is in Australian Date format (DD/MM/YYYY) according to my setting in "Reginal and Lanuage Option-> Locale 0> English (Australia)" setting.
I get the following error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Server KITSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
The statement has been terminated.
My computer's locale is set to English (Australia) and I expect the datetime format would follow what is set in system locale
I've read an article somewhere on the net about how SQL 2005 eliminate the confusion of date conversion when read/write datetime records into a table...but it seems to me that it is still as in-flexible as MS Access
Is there a setting in the database that takes care of it?
Thanks

Is there a way in RS2005 to create a UDF that will take an XML field as an input, and display the XML formatted (similar to how IE formats XML files, structured, but without the need to expand/collapse sections).
Right now I can display the XML data from the field in a textbox, but it displays as one continuous string, rather than nicely structured for viewing.
Thanks

View 3 Replies View RelatedHello all,
I'm trying to write a query against an exisiting table that i can't modify and i'm running into a bit of a problem. The table stores timestamps as a char field instead of a datetime.
So, i've had to use the CONVERT function to change it to a datetime during my query. A sample is below:
SELECT convert(datetime, logged, 120) FROM AP200310
This works, except i want to include the option of querying a single day. Since the data that is returned is in this format:
12/12/2006 6:54:15 PM
The following sql statement doesn't work:SELECT convert(datetime, logged, 120) FROM AP200310 WHERE logged = '12/12/2006'
Thanks in advance for any help.
