I've got a table with the following fields and data types
ProjIDint
StatusDatedatetime
ProjStatusvarchar(1)
I want to put a unique index on the fields above, each ProjID can only have one ProjStatus on a given StatusDate (dd/mm/yyyy) , but because of the milliseconds in the date time it's not happening. Any suggestions on how I can get around this.
Hi all, having a little problem with saving dates to sql databaseI've got the CreatedOn field in the table set to datetime type, but every time i try and run it i get an error kicked up Error "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."I've tried researching it but not been able to find something similar. Heres the code: DateTime createOn = DateTime.Now;string sSQLStatement = "INSERT INTO Index (Name, Description, Creator,CreatedOn) values ('" + name + "','" + description + "','" + userName + "','" + createOn + "')"; Any help would be much appreciated
I am trying to drag data from Informix to Sql Server. When I kick off the package using an OLE DB Source and a SQL Server Destination, I get DT_DBDATE to DT_DBTIMESTAMP errors on two fields from Informix which are date data ....no timestamp part
I tried a couple of things:
Created a view of the Informix table where I cast the date fields as datetime year to fraction(5), which failed.
Altered the view to convert the date fields to char(10) with the hopes that SQL Server would implicitly cast them as datetime but it failed.
I'm having a hard time getting one of my tables to use a non clustered index that I have on a DateTime column.
A sample version of the table is something like this
CREATE TABLE Appointments ( ID INT NOT NULL, AppointmentDate DateTime NOT NULL )
with a clustered primary key on ID and a nonclustered key on AppointmentDate.
This production table has over 1million rows and the problem I have is this:
If I do a SELECT * FROM Appointments where AppointmentDate >= '20060701' AND AppointmentDate < '20060702' the Non clustered index on the AppointmentDate column works fine. i.e. I'm returning all appointments for the 1st of July.
Now if I run the exact same query using datetime parameters, a Clustered index scan is performed instead of an index seek.
DECLARE @AppDate DateTime
SET @AppDate = '20060701'
SELECT * FROM Appointments WHERE AppointmentDate >= @AppDate and AppointmentDate < DATEADD(day, 1, @AppDate)
I have 5 million rows of table, and going to create Non Clustered Index for Datetime values column. Creating Non clustered Index on Datetime value column will affect performance or not.
I have a database which is centered around two date tables (approx. 5.5 million records each). We are finally making the big leap from SQL Server 2005 to 2012. The data is currently stored as datetime, and we are hoping to take advantage of the new date datatype, since the time component is not needed.
The first table has 13 different date columns. In testing on the 2012 server I have changed 3 columns so far, and have seen that changing the datatype to date is actually increasing the Index size and not affecting the data size. Only 3 of the columns are associated with indexes, and modifying a non-indexed column still increased the index size. I am running the Disk Usage by Table report to view the sizes.
OUr end-users will be accessing data through a SQL view through third party applications. Ex. Access, Excel, Crystal Reports. All the date fields need to only have 'Data' XX/XX/XXXX, not datetime. Since SQL Server only stores the data as datetime, I convert the data in the proper format in the Create view statement. The only problem is that the data is now a text (varchar(10) field in which sorting through these third party applications causes issues. Ex. 01/05/2000 comes before 02/02/1999 because it sorts on the first characters. Is there a way in SQL to store the data as a Date only or any other suggestions.
hello there. i have a databse with a datetime Filed and i want to find all records of the month on the datetie filed. how can i do it. i was using this but it does not work
SELECT * FROM laconexion.lc_members WHERE (baja = MONTH(GETDATE()))
I got this error report "The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word starting at index 0." at this line of code in BOLD.
For some reasons the datetime format in the database has the (US datetime format - 05/02/2008 06:40 instead of United Kingdom (UK date time format - 02/05/2008 06:40), as I had planned. I have tried to reformat the database and VB date format and all to no success.Could this be the root of my problems?

Hello.I'm working on an application where the original developer used thefield name 'index'. This works ok when accessing the table from MSAccess through query, but when I try to reference it via SQL witheither a statement from Enterprise Manager or a stored procedure I'mgetting an error because 'index' is a keyword.Is there any way to reference this? Maybe some delimeters I can putaround it that I don't know about?Thanks,Stoney

Trying to extract the time portion from a datetime field. ex 7:15:12 AM from 1/1/2008 7:15:12 aM This is what I tried and neither functions give me the results I want.... SELECT DueTime, CONVERT(varchar, DueDate, 108) AS Expr1, SUBSTRING(CAST(DueDate AS varchar), 10, LEN(DueDate)) AS Expr2, CAST(DueDate AS varchar) AS Expr3FROM TODO Due Time Expr1 Expr2 Expr3 1/1/2008 5:15:00 PM 00:00:00 12:00:00 AM Jan 1 2008 12:00:00 AM It seems Cast(DueDate as varchar) is the problem it converts the time to the default 12:00:00 AM In the above example I want 5:15:00 PM
Here is my nightmare!! : I have 3 database tables. ( START, STOP, TICK )START ( Start_ID, Start_Time )STOP ( Stop_ID, Stop_Time )TICK ( Tick_ID, Tick_Time ) I have 3 records in each tables with the time fields being in datetime format. What I want to accomplish: I want to compare Tick_Time to see if it is between Start_Time and Stop_Time. ie. IF Tick_Time > Start_Time AND Tick_Time < Stop_Time THEN that Tick_Time.colour = Green elseTick_Time.colour = Red Can datetime fields be easily compared like I have shown above? Else can anyone give me an idea of howwwww Thanks and any help is appreciated
Hi, I have used smalldatetime datatype to store my date and time values. i want to store just the date or time but the problem is it stores both the date and time. For eg, if i add the the date 03/11/2004, it also the stores the current time automatically. so the new value will be something like 03/11/2004 10:00:00 AM where i want just 03/11/2004. further problem is even though i managed to store just the date like 03/11/2004 in the database, whole date and time shows up when i display it in my pages.
Hi! Can anyone tell me how to perform a substring operation on a DateTime field. I'm using SQLServer. I have read that you may have to use casts but I have thus far been unable to get that to work. My statement: SELECT EventDate FROM tblEvent WHERE Category = 'GE'; I just want to cut the hours, minutes and seconds off, so that I am left with just the date element. Thanks all. Gren
I was wondering if someone could help me here with some reporting I'm trying to do. For website visits, I currently use getdate() to have SQL insert the date and time of the visit in the table. I was wondering, is there a way to grab just the month from the field? I would like to chart this and I need to group the visits by month. I'm not sure how I would go about filtering just the month out of the entire date and time fields.
Hello, I would appreciate any suggestions I've got a datetime field that I'd like to store as just the date without the time component, but still to keep it defined as a datetime field. I ran this update statement but this conversion isn't working. Conversion to char gives me what I want but I need to keep the field as a date datatype if possible. Thanks :)
update <table> set <column>=convert(datetime,convert(char(10),hire_date,101)) )
I have a table with datetime field in SQL server 7.0 I have inserted values into datetime field for eg: '10/10/99' '10/10/99 10:30 AM' '11/10/99 11:50 PM' When I view this table from enterprise manager, values are shown exactly in the same format I have entered. But, When I run the query from Query Analyzer, It always shows values in the following format '1999-10-10 00:00:00.000'
Is there a way that I can see the values in the same format I have entered.
