SQL Server Equivalent For Oracle's Julian Date
Hi every body,

    I'm in process of converting an Oracle Database to SQL Server. My problem is how to represent the ORacle's Julian dates in Sql Server.

As we all know A Julian date is the number of days since Jan 1, 4712 BC. Julian dates allow continuous dating from a common reference. You can use the date format model "J" with date functions TO_DATE and TO_CHAR to convert between Oracle7 DATE values and their Julian equivalents.
for example:

SELECT TO_DATE(TRUNC(10),'J') FROM DUAL;

        will return 10/01/4712


SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(TRUNC(1130),'J'),'JSP') FROM DUAL;

will return the value of 1130 in words - "One Thousand One Hundred Thirty"

This actually is my use. I just wanted to convert numbers in digits to words. in Oracle using the second example given above, it is posible to do the conversion.

But how we will do the same in SQL Server 2000. Can any body suggest an Equivalent conversion method in SQL Server 2000 or an alternative method to convert numbers in digits to words.

Please Help me out ...

Server Date/time Instead Of Windows Date/time
Dear VB Experts,

We are developing a Client/Server application whereby the VB executables will reside at the PC.

Server run on HP-UX 10.20. Database is Informix-Online.

One of our task is to utilise the server date and time for timestamp instead of using the Windows date and time.

How do we do that ?

Thanks in advance.

Date And Time In SQL Server
Hi.

I have a table (SQLServer )Exam with 2 columns Date (DateTime) and Time (Datetime). In Date I store a date without time (format dd.mm.yyyy - 15.01.2004) and Time a time without a date (format HH:MM:SS - 12:33:00).

How to compare the current date and time (getdate()) whith theese two columns, so that only the date part of getdate() is compared with Date and only the time part of getdate() is compared with time.

Actually if I select rows from table the result for Date column is 2004-01-15 00:00:00.000
and for Date is 1899-12-30 12:33:00.000 (because of datetime type).

My select is something like this:

select .. from.. where
((getdate() 'date part'< exam.Date) OR
  (getdate() 'date part' = exam.Date AND getdate() 'time part'<= exam.Time))
..


or maybe

getdate()<=exam.Date 'date part' + exam.Time 'time part'

Thanks for any suggestion.

Date/time Fields In SQL Server
Hi,

If I have a date & time field in SQL Server - what is the best way of truncating the field so that I am left with the date element?

In Oracle I used to use the 'Trunc' function. Is there a SQL Server equivalent?

Thanks.

Retrieving Server Date/Time
My Program links up to an online mysql server, checks for new records and downloads any new ones that have been added since last check, storing them in an access database. I thought I had it all worked out but the problem I've hit is that if my time says 10:23 and I upload some new records, and your time says 10:24, then your copy of the program won't recognise them as new, as it thinks they are 1 minute old already. I discovered, that by using the INSERT INTO statment and NOW() I can store the date entered according to the servers date, so when I upload a record it's not my date being used but the servers.

My Question is this: How can I retrieve the servers date to compare record dates to see which ones are new? I know I can use SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE ... using the dates, but it would be difficult to implement like this with they way I'm comparing. I might still do it that way though.

Any suggestions? Maybe there's an easier way of determining which records have been added since last check?

Edit:
Sorry, just to specify, what I do is upload any new records, then save the date and time to the registry so that the program checks next time for any records modified/added since the last check. This time/date stored in registry needs to be from the server and not the users computer.

thanks

Get Date/Time From Central Server?
Is it possible to obtain the ‘Now’ Date and time constant from a central server.
i.e. you have 5 computers Networked to a central server is it possible to read the date and time from the central server rather than from your own PC.
I need this for a multi user app that I am writing where date and time events are logged into a central database. If computers within the network are set to the incorrect date or time then the information stored will be inaccurate.

Inserting Date And Time Info Into SQL Server
Hello,

I am having problems trying to insert the date and time values into a SQL server database. The user will enter in the date and time from a datepicker control and I have the format for the dates set as "custom" and then the format is "MM/dd/yyy hh:mm:ss tt".

I have a table called Wateroff and in there i have created a column that is defined as "smalldatetime". I want the ability to add the date and time information into this column. I have tried FormatDateTime(), Format() with no luck. I am listing my code below.

Code:
Set MainBreakRs = MainBreakConn.Execute("Insert into WaterOff (Comments, " & _
"DateReceived, FromStreet, StreetName, " & _
"ToStreet, CrewNo, DateOff, DateOn, Editedby, ModifiedDate,
EstDate.value) values ('" & _
txtComments.Text + "', " + Format(dtDate.Value, "MM/dd/yyy hh:mm:ss tt") & _
", '" + txtStreetFrom.Text + "', '" + txtStreetName.Text & _
"', '" & _
txtStreetTo.Text + "', '" + txtCrewNo.Text + "', " & _
Format(dtDateOff.Value, "MM/dd/yyy hh:mm:ss tt") + ", " & _

SQL Server/Access Date/Time Quirks
I have seen some responses to similar problems as my own, but they were all years old so im
hoping there is some more uptodate advice available.

The problem is dates and their conversions between my VB6 program and MS Access/SQL Server 2000.

I get the old system getting confused between Day/Month even though I use text month as far as possible.

I try to use the following code


StartDate = monthToText(mvStartDate.Month) & "/" & mvStartDate.Day & "/" & mvStartDate.Year & " " & dtStartTime.Hour

& ":" & dtStartTime.Minute & ":" & dtStartTime.Second



Using a month control, and a small function to turn month numbers in month 3 digit texts, Jan, Feb etc.

Then I use Datevalue before I send the dates, such as...




If modDatabase.DBType = e_databaseTypes_AccessFile Then

.Open "SELECT * FROM datastore WHERE datatimestamp>#" & DateValue(theStartDate) & "# AND datatimestamp<#" &

DateValue(theEndDate) _
& "# AND tagtableid=" & theTagID & " ORDER BY datatimestamp", modDatabase.ADOConnection, adOpenStatic,

adLockReadOnly

ElseIf modDatabase.DBType = e_databaseTypes_SQLserver Then

.Open "SELECT * FROM datastore WHERE datatimestamp>'" & DateValue(theStartDate) & "' AND datatimestamp<'" &

DateValue(theEndDate) & "'" _
& " AND tagtableid=" & theTagID & " ORDER BY datatimestamp", modDatabase.ADOConnection, adOpenStatic,

adLockReadOnly

End If





However, I get VERY strange results, eg, when picking to select data between 1st April 1999 and 30th April 1999, the data

returned is between Jan 4th 1999 and April 30th 1999, THEN if I try selecting data between dates such as 9th April-13thApril

I get Zero results returned (there is data between these dates), and other strange dates behaviour.
Any help in making sure I get the right results?? When I insert data into the database, I use the same Datevalue method and

ensure months are in text form.

Finding Date/Time Of File On FTP Server
FTp Server Get a File Date/Time Before Download
I am polling a particular file on an ftp server.

I have a problem. using wininet.,, the controls do not give me the (seconds) when i retreive the date/time of the file on the Server.

FileDateTime when looking at the local drives gives me hh:mm:ss ok. BUT under ftp,using wininet, only hh:mm

I need to look at the time,hh:mm:ss,,, to establish if it is worth getting the file from the server. ie. it has changed.

Is there any control which will let me LOOK at a file on an ftp server, and get data,hours,minutes,seconds., that works.

Or, some other way of establishing the state of the file has altered,.. (it will always be the same size!)

Appreciate any advice.

Check For File Size/date/time On A Ftp Server
Hello all I am looking for a example of a program that can ftp into my defined directory on the server and get the file size/date/time of the file and compare it with the file that the user is using.

If the file on the server is newer, it downloads it and lets the user use it. If the file is not newer, it sends the users file to the server.

Anything like this exist? I am already using the API FtpGetFile and FtpPutFile to retrieve and get a file from the server. Any way I can use that to see the size/date and time?

Thanks for your time,
David

Hi All,

I'm still trying to sort this, can anybody please help, , I think I have got a little further, should I be using the Internet Transfer Control shipped with VB6 ?

This is a control I have not used before so really need some help. All I want to do is either read the date/time stamp of a compiled VB Exe on a webserver, if it is later than the one on the local machine, Copy it from the server into the same location overwriting the one on the local machine. If the Date/Time stamp cannot be read, can the version number perhaps ?
