I've converted a date field to a number. I'd then like to concatenate this with another number field.
(CONVERT(bigint,convert(datetime,[Date of Incident])) + ' ' + cast([Incident Number]as nvarchar(4))) as 'lookup'
Using the code above only returns the converted date to number field.
I am loading data from an iseries into a sql server 2005 DB. Our dates are stored as a numeric value in a format of CYYMMDD where C = Century indicator 20'th is 0 and 21'st is 1, YY = Year, MM = Month and DD = Day!
Today would be 1070701. Now I want to use a derived column which which would be of type date using an expression to do the conversion.
Usually, we would add 19000000 to the number to give us 20070701 then I'd convert it to a string and then substring into a date format.
I'm just getting started with SQL 2005 so I don't know how to do this using an expression.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

My ERP software stores all dates as integers. So originally, I wrote a T-SQL function to convert these integer dates to normal people dates in the query I use as the recordset for my report. Well...that worked fine on 1,000 rows, but NOT for 100,000. So I've figured out that if I convert my normal person date parameter to an integer date, then SQL only has to convert my 1 parameter instead of having to convert 100,000 fields, (actually, 300,000 because I have 3 date columns).
So my question is, what is the best way to do this? This is what I have so far:
SET @Macola = Cast(Datepart(yy,@MacolaDate) as varchar) + Cast(Datepart(mm,@MacolaDate) as varchar) + Cast(Datepart(dd,@MacolaDate) as varchar)
However, I want the leading zeros for the month and day. For example if I enter '1/1/2004' into this function, it returns 200411, but I need it to return 20040101.
Any suggestions would be greatly apprectiated. Thank you.
Hello,
I apologise if this question has been asked before but I have searched forums and the web and have not found a solution. I am current creating a script that has a cursor that builds a sql statement to be executed e.g.
--code within cursor
SELECT '
DECLARE @Result INT
EXEC @Result = DELETE_DOCUMENT
@DocumentID = ' + STR(DocumentID) + ',
@TimeStamp =' + CAST([Timestamp] as varchar) + ',
-- CHECK RESULT AND STATUS
-- IF OK LOG IN META_BATCH ELSE LOG ERROR' AS SQL
FROM Document
The problem I am having is trying to join the timestamp column into the sql string. I have tried to cast the time stamp to a varchar but I end up with the following output for the timestamp column values
T
T€‘
T
xnĂž
T!
T"
T#
T$
T%
T&
T'
T(
T)
T*
T+
T,
instead of
0x0000000013540F1C
0x0000000013540F1E
0x0000000013540F1F
0x0000000013786EDE
0x0000000013540F21
0x0000000013540F22
0x0000000013540F23
0x0000000013540F24
0x0000000013540F25
0x0000000013540F26
0x0000000013540F27
0x0000000013540F28
0x0000000013540F29
0x0000000013540F2A
0x0000000013540F2B
0x0000000013540F2C
which would not allow my delete script to work correctly. So I would really appreciate some advice to a pointer to where I might find out how to convert the timestamp.
Thanks

Good afternoon one and all,
I have the following problem that I can use some help with :
I have a table in a linked server that has the date stored in three fields (i.e. day,month and year (I have no idea why)). I would like to concatenate these three fields together into a datetime format in a SQL statement
Something like
SELECT ([stc_dd] & '/' & [stc_mm] & '/' & [stc_yy]) AS stkdate
(the above line does not work)
Hope that is clear, thanx in advance for any and all help

I have the following
Column Name : [Converted Date]
Data Type : varchar(50)
When I try and do month around the [Converted Date] I get the following error message
“Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.”
My Query is
SELECT
month([Created Date])
FROM [FDMS_PartnerReporting].[Staging].[Salesforce_MarketingReporting]
SELECT * ,[Due]
 FROM [Events]
 Where Due >= getdate() +90
This returns the error: Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string
Why would this be? How to cast or convert this so that it will work?Â

Hi,I have two tables. One of them has a text field, and the other has a numeric(integer) field that serves a similar purpose. I want to connect (UNIONactually) the two tables, and store the text from the first table in thesame field as the number from the other.For example:SELECT TextID AS IDFROM W1UNIONSELECT NumericID AS IDFROM W2The above query results in a type mismatch error due to trying to store anInt in a text field. I have tried the SQL CONVERT function, but the docsseem to indicate that it is just for Dates. In any case, it hasn't workedfor me.Any ideas?Thanks!

First time poster here, but I have gleaned much needed support using the forum in the past, so
many thanks to all.
Well, on to business.
I have a strange problem with a T-SQL stored procedure my company uses for reporting.
Around the Christmas holiday period, it just stopped working.
I managed to track the error down to the code below:
(Just the code to recreate the error.)
declare
@g datetime,
@g2 datetime
select @g2=getdate()
select @g=convert(datetime,convert(varchar(10),@g2,101))
select @g,@g2 , SERVERPROPERTY('PRODUCTVERSION'), SERVERPROPERTY ('PRODUCTLEVEL'), SERVERPROPERTY ('EDITION')
When this is run, I get this error message:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 6
The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.

I know this is not the best way to use datetime or conversions, but I did not write it, I am just supporting it.
The strange thing is, the above code has worked every week since January 2006?
The even stranger thing is, it runs on perfectly well on Server 2000 and on the version below that has not had
any recent service packs installed.
