I’ll guess it’s because of the “varchar� convert, but I need the date to bee inn this format, since I only shall check the date and not the time. Is there a way around this, so I can order it like this? (Se under)
select Convert(varchar,LH.LoginDateTime,103) as RegistrationDate,
select count(*) from LoginHistory AS LH2 where datepart(hh,LH2.LoginDateTime)<7 AND
Convert(varchar,LH2.LoginDateTime,103)>=Convert(varchar,LH.LoginDateTime,103) AND
Convert(varchar,LH2.LoginDateTime,103)<=Convert(varchar,LH.LoginDateTime,103))
As beforehour07
from LoginHistory AS LH
where LH.LoginDateTime >='''+ Convert(varchar,@FromDate,113) + ''' ' +
'and LH.LoginDateTime <='''+ Convert(varchar,@ToDate,113) + ''' ' +
'group by Convert(varchar,LH.LoginDateTime,103)'
Order by RegistrationDate
Note the code below, running on the version noted.
I just found this today, figured I'd share. Not sure if it's a known bug or a "special" feature. The only difference between the two queries is the 3rd line, everything else is the same. Notice that the sort order changes, yet no errors or warnings are given. I assume that the table aliases are ignored for the order by, unless there are duplicate column names in the results.
I abstracted this from a bug I discovered in one of my apps today, where I have sales reps assigned to their clients with start and end dates. A while back, a developer asked me to format the dates without the time portion, and when I did so, I introduced the problem. I resolved it temporarily by ordering by convert(datetime, startdate) but I found it strange that the column alias match overrides the table alias attempted match in the order by. Another way to get around this would be to change the column aliases, then the sort order would be as desired, but I didn't want to have to change the app code for something so trivial.
My apologies if this is a duplicate.

hi basically what i have is 3 text boxes. one for start date, one for end date and one for order id, i also have this bit of SQL SelectCommand="SELECT [Order_ID], [Customer_Id], [Date_ordered], [status] FROM [tbl_order]WHERE (([Date_ordered] >= @Date_ordered OR @Date_ordered IS NULL) AND ([Date_ordered] <= @Date_ordered2 OR @Date_ordered2 IS NULL OR (Order_ID=ISNULL(@OrderID_ID,Order_ID) OR @Order_ID IS NULL))"> but the problem is it does not seem to work! i am not an SQL guru but i cant figure it out, someone help me please! Thanks Jez
Hi, I just realized that when I started using the CONVERT function on my dates in my SELECT statement and try to ORDER BY one of the date fields that I convert, the order isn't actually correct. Here's the statement:
$query = "SELECT id, BroSisFirstName, BroSisLastName, TerrNumber, IsCheckedOut, IsLPCheckedOut, BroSisFirstNameLP, BroSisLastNameLP, CONVERT(char(10),CONVERT(datetime, CAST(checkedOutDate as varchar(12))),101) AS checkedOutDate, CONVERT(char(10),CONVERT(datetime, CAST(returnedDate as varchar(12))),101) AS returnedDate, CONVERT(char(10),CONVERT(datetime, CAST(lpcheckedOutDate as varchar(12))),101) AS lpcheckedOutDate, CONVERT(char(10),CONVERT(datetime, CAST(lpReturnedDate as varchar(12))),101) AS lpReturnedDate FROM Checkouts WHERE IsClosed < 1 ORDER BY checkedOutDate";
It's almost as if it's treating the date as a string. Does anybody know why, and how I can correct the issue? I need to use the CONVERT function because I don't want the whole 00:00:00 returned with each date. And I say it's the CONVERT function because if I take off the CONVERT on one of the fields such as checkedOutDate and try to sort by it, it sorts correctly.
So I have to build dynamic T-SQL because of a date parameter that will be provided. The Date Parameter will be provided in SSRS in normal MM/DD/CCYY format. So how do I then convert that date to my Oracle format
Hi there. I'm trying to extract data from my SQL server & everything in the script I've got is working (extracting correct data) except for one field - which is for the most part it's off by +2 days (on a few occasions - I see it off by just +1 day or even +3, but it's usually the +2 days).
I'm told that it's due to the conversion formula - but - since SQL is not my native language, I'm at a bit of a loss.
The DB table has the date field stored as a type: CHAR (as opposed to 'DATE') Can anyone out there help?
I need to sort by an ntext field, but it won't let me do it.
However, if I cast the field as nvarchar(100), I can use ORDER BY on that.
Is there any reason that this is a bad idea? In my testing, ordering by a converted ntext field was actually *faster* than ordering by an nvarchar (same data in the fields).
I have passed createdDate from UI to Stored procedure.createdDate field declared with DateTime.it is having value 2014-07-01.I need to fetch records from the database based upon the created field.but Create_TM in database having value Date with timestamp.so how would i change the createdfield in stored procedure.
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[ByDateRange]
@Feed VARCHAR(50),
@CreatedDate DATETIME
select * from Date_table where Create_TM = @CreatedDate
I have created a SQL Stored Procedure that uses a Case statement todetermine the Order By. For one of the Case statements I am trying toturn a Char field into Datetime in for the Order By, however I can notget it to work. Can someone please take a look and my code below andtell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you.ORDER BYCASE WHEN @SortBy = 'dttm_stamp' THEN dttm_stamp End,CASE WHEN @SortBy = 'Event_Date1' THEN CAST(CONVERT(char(10),Event_Date1,101) as datetime) End,CASE WHEN @SortBy = 'FullName' THEN Emp_lastname + ', ' +Emp_firstname End,CASE WHEN @SortBy = 'FullName Desc' THEN Emp_lastname + ', ' +Emp_firstname End DESC,CASE WHEN @SortBy = 'Emp_SSN' THEN Emp_SSN End
I have a table in which a date value is stored as varchar.some of these values are stored ina dd/mm/yyyy format and other values are stored in a yyyy-mm-dd format..Now I wish to retrieve some data by querying between two dates. However I need to convert the varchar date value to datetime in order to do this but since the date value is in two different formats, the following doesn't work.
select date_value from my_table where CONVERT(DATETIME, date_value, 103) between @date1 and @date2
How can you convert the date value to datetime when its stored in mutiple formats. I can't change the table itself as I dont have admin privelages.
Using a reporting services model/report builder we have two related tables: - Fundings, (parent) - Draws, (child)
Report Builder reports that subtract "Total Fundings.Amount", (which is SUM(FundingAmount)) from "Total Draw Amount", (which is SUM(DrawAmount)) to get a balance work as expected except when there are no Draw rows, in which case a NULL is returned. Obviously we want to convert NULL values of "Total Draw Amount" to zero so that when subtracted from "Total Fundings.Amount" the correct value is displayed. I've searched for a function similar to COALESCE (Transact-SQL) in report builder but found nothing.

Hi,I have a table (SQL Server 2000) with several date columns in it, all ofwhich are individually NULLable, but in any one row, not all the dates canbe NULL.I want a query which ORDERs BY the earliest date it finds in each row. I'mguessing I have to do this in two steps:STEP 1Using a UDF, find the earliest date and stick it in a new calculatedcolumn "earliest date"STEP 2ORDER BY this UDF-created columnIf this is the right way to go about this, is there a simple SQL way ofdetermining which is the lowest of several dates? (ie of doing STEP 1).Or am I looking at this the wrong way, and missing an easy *one-step* way ofgetting what I want?TIA,JON

hi,I was pulling up a report in SQL, and I wanted the records to be ordered by dates descending. However, I found this ordering was only fine enough to order records by dates (not hours or minutes) (within the same date, records were ordered so that the latest entered were at the bottom). I wonder if anyone else has encouted this problem before, or I am doing something wrong.Thanks very much.
I have a problem with an Order By sort on a SubmissionDate column in my SQLSERVER DB.
I am inputing a timestamp in this format into the column above: 1/18/2005 11:03:19 AM
Problem is, once I sort this column in DESC order to return the results to a datalist dates with a time like this:
1/18/2005 1:03:19 AM
get placed out of place (lower on the return in DESC/higher on the return in ASC). I am assuming this is happening because it reads 1 as coming before 11 instead of after like it is with time. If this was in 24 hour format this wouldn't be a problem I guess because 1PM would be 13, so that is after 11.
Anyone know what I can do to get this sorted correctly?
hi. i'm trying to order my results ascending by date except i'm getting some really weird output. my ouput resembles something like this:
oct 2 oct 3 sep 13 sep 21 sep 22 sep 30 aug 3 aug 5 aug 16
the data is stored in a date field. i use getdate when inserting the date to the database. is there a reason why the dates are showing up weird and not ordering appropriately? thanks for your help.
also, can you not search here any more? i keep getting timeout errors.
Payment Order_Number|Card_Type|Card_#|Merchant 10001 Gift Card1234null 10001 Gift Card1235null 10001 Gift Card 1236null 10001 Credit Cardxxxxprd 10002 Credit Cardxxxxprd 10003 Credit Card xxxxprd 10004 Credit Card xxxx prod
I have to populate th below table to track last gift card used for each cust_number. 1. last gift card used for each customer, each order 2. In a single order , if card used is gift card, last gift card used is gift card itself. if card used is a credit card, then the max gift card number from with in the order. 3. First time if a customer uses a credit card, then last gift card used is defaulted to 99 for merchant = prd and 88 for merchant = prod 4. In a new order, a past customer only uses a gift card, then last gift card used is gift card from his previous order.
Please help me with the sql. I tried this using subqueries to find the max gift card for a customer for an order and could get the last gift card used correctly for credit cards for an order, but not able to insert the gift card from a previous order if the new order has only credit card as in for customer C1.
I have below SQL, which should be order by posteddate ASC
SELECT AnnouncementID,[Subject],[Description], CONVERT(nvarchar(10),PostedDate,101) AS PostedDate, CONVERT(nvarchar(10),ExpiredDate,101) AS ExpiredDate, CountryID,CreatedBy, CreatedDate, ModifiedBy, ModifiedDate FROM Announcements a WHERE isActive = 1 AND CountryID = 2 AND (GETDATE()>= PostedDate) AND (GETDATE()<= ExpiredDate) ORDER BY PostedDate ASC
But result is displaying as below, PostedDate datatype is datetime
How do I order a query by a date field ASC, but have any NULL valuesshow up last? i.e.7/1/20037/5/20037/10/2003<NULL><NULL>Any help will greatly be appreciated
