Change Format Of Dates

Mar 14, 2007

I don't know why my company did this, but dates are being stored in a char field within our database. Meanwhile, I've been setting up new pages using datetime.

That's just a little back story. My question is, is it possible to change the format of all dates in the table from yyyy/MM/dd to MM/dd/yyyy in the char field? I'm just trying to think of an easier way to change a thousand or so records instead of doing it manually.

Thanks.

Dates Saved As Different Format

Dec 4, 2007

I recently wrote a stored procedure to add the date and time to an existing table. The date is being stored as
Oct 29 2007 5:37PM

Instead of as
10/29/2007 5:37:23 PM

The column is a varchar(24) data type and I use GETDATE() in the stored procedure to supply the date.

What do I need to do to change to get this to save the date as mm/dd/yyyy

Format Dates In ISO 8601

Oct 3, 2006

Hi,

I'm totally new at SQL Server, I'm sorry if this question looks very simple, but I just don't know how to change the datetime value in a field on my database.

I'm working in vb.net and I have a datetime field in sql server, I can store date values passing this value:

DatePick.Value.ToString("s")

dates are saved fine, but if want to make this query:

Select * from backlog where date1>=isdate('21/02/2006') order by date1 asc

I get all the values from that field, no filter is done. Date are shown like this 2004-05-23 14:25:10.000 in the query.

What do I have to do ? do I have to change the date format of my field to ISO 8601 ? how ? do I use a script or what ???????

Please remeber that my sql script should be done from vb.

I really appreciate your help.

George

Getting Series Of Numbers To Format For Dates

Jul 12, 2007

if

(datalength

(cast_varchar

([Costpoint].[Profit_Calc_Consolidation].[PD])

) = 1)

then

(0 ||

cast_varchar

([Costpoint].[Profit_Calc_Consolidation].[PD]))

else

(cast_varchar

([Costpoint].[Profit_Calc_Consolidation].[PD]))





Goal:

To be able to tell the Period number ([PD]) to change from an integer to a var_char so that it can be concatenated with the Fiscal Year. I.e. Fiscal Year || Period number to produce the following results.

2006 01

2006 02

2006 03

Etc……





Status of Problem:

The issue is that I can only get it done to the point to where the Fiscal Year || Period number yields the following results:

20061

200610

200611

200612

20062

Etc….

This is as issue since I am trying to get all the information from the past to a certain year and period. Using a filter that says



Fiscal Year + Period Number <= ?Prompt_Fiscal_Year? + ?Prompt_Period_Number?

So if I enter Year: 2007 Period 3

I should get:

2006 01

2006 02

2006 03

Etc…….

2006 11

2006 12

2007 01

2007 02

2007 03



Can you please let me know if my thinking is off or if my SQL is wrong, Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

I Can't Store Dates In The DD/MM/YYYY Format.

Oct 18, 2007

ok so this is my table structure
[odcCode] [int] NOT NULL ,
[insCode] [varchar] (11) COLLATE Modern_Spanish_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[odcQty] [int] NOT NULL ,
[odcCostoUnitario] [numeric](18, 4) NOT NULL ,
[odcISV] [bit] NULL ,
[odcStatusInsumo] [varchar] (3) COLLATE Modern_Spanish_CI_AS NULL ,
[odcInsArrivalDate] [datetime]

INSERT INTO OrdenCompraDetalle
(odcCode, insCode, odcQty, odcCostoUnitario, odcISV, odcStatusInsumo, odcInsArrivalDate)
VALUES
(697,'MIN-000028',1,22.3250,0,'PEN', '18/10/2007 12:00:00 a.m.')

and when I run, the insert command I get the next error:
Syntax error converting datetime from character string.


The date is taken from a standar DateTime Picker control from Visual Studio 2003 and I can't change the regional settings on the computers (that's not an option)

What can I do to fix the problem and be able to insert the date in any format?

Displaying Difference Between Two Dates In The HH:mm:ss Format

Feb 28, 2007

I have a need to display the difference between two dates, a start date and a end date in the format HH:mm where the hours could be greater than 60.

For example:

Start Date - 30/01/2007 09:00:01
End Date - 01/02/2007 20:40:04

When i use the following code (=Fields!dateend.Value - Fields!DateStart.Value) i get 2.11:40:03 which i can easily understand, but the customer wants it as above!

I would like to be able to get it to be 59:40:03.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Exporting Dates To Excel As Date Format

Jan 12, 2007

Hi,

I'm currently having problems exporting formatted dates from reporting services 2005 to excel.

Basically what I require is a way to format a date in reporting services so that it only shows the date without the time (preferably british format) and when it is exported to excel it is still formatted as a date.

This is so the user can sort the data file via date, I appreciate it is easy to select the column and format the cells but i would prefer to have a 'cleaner' solution to this problem which avoids the need for users to be formatting exported reports.

Originally I was formatting the dates as convert(varchar,@date,103) in the SP which converts it to a character string and excel picks this up as a character as would be expected. So I changed this to a date and set about trying to format the date in Reporting Services, so far i've been unsuccesfull using cdate (brings back the time) and format as it again converts it to a character string.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated,

R

Problem With Dates Format Passed As Parameters...

Jan 8, 2007

Hi,

I am having the "classical problem" of the forums; A local date changed to the american format (normally in the development environment) which I call "Switching months with days"... well it switches both again if you press "view report" again :)The problem I'm having is that when I Navigate from one report to other, the dates get switched... Everything's been set in the locale uk date format (dd/mm/aaaa), in the operating system, in the database and in the reports... and the reports are working properly through the web interface.. the only thing that is not working properly is the Navigation which switches the date month with the day...Changing all the Reporting Services server, database server to the american format date is not an acceptable solution. Thanks for any guidance on this, as I'm pretty lost...Jose

How Do I Change The Currency Format?

Nov 28, 2007

It's probably right underneath my nose, but I cannot seem to be able to set the currency format.

My Stored procedure returns an integer that represents a cash value in pennies (like cents).

I then divide this value by 100 and convert it to a Double, so its value is represented in Pounds.

This all works fine, my problem is that when I wrap the above logic in a FormatCurrency, I get a dollar ($) sign before it. How can I change this so that it gives a pound sign (£)?
