New to SQL and have a hopefully simple ???I have a select statement that returns a date field in the yyyy-mm-ddhh:mm:ss format. I would like to find a way to strip off the hh:mm:ssportion and return the date only.Thanks for the assist
I have a question regarding the date format. In product table, we have 'received date' and 'sales date' and the following is the format:
'2007-02-06 00:00:00.000'
I want to convert this format to week like : 'W 50 -2007' And the following is the syntax :
Code Block SELECT 'W'+' ' + convert(varchar(2),d.week_number)+ '/'+ convert(varchar(4),d.year_number) FROM Product p INNER JOIN Date d on d.full_date = p.received_date
I can get the right result but is there any function to convert date to week so that I can avoid to use join to date dimension?
Any kinds of advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
i am trying to convert a string like this 'le dd/mm/yyyy' into a datetime.I have removed the 'le ' part and used covert(datetime, 'dd/mm/yyyy',103) to convert into datetime. This works for example for 'le 22/11/1799' but for 'le 09/11/1716' it does not work.
select convert(datetime,RIGHT('le 22/11/1799', LEN('le 22/11/1799') - 3), 103) -> it works select convert(datetime,RIGHT('le 09/11/1716', LEN('le 09/11/1716') - 3), 103) -> it does not work
I have a date "4/25/2007" but the requirement is to have data as "04/25/2007" in datamart. if month is single digit it should have leading zeroes, same with date, can some tell me how to convert this.
I've a text file which having a datetime column value like YYYY-MM-DD-HH.MM.SS.XXXXXX. I cannot convert this is to datetime format from text file using BCP utility.
Presence of hypen "-" between DD and HH, the SQL server does not accept this is as Datetime.
Is there any option to covert the date value in format file in BCP.
declare @fromdate date declare @todate date set @fromdate='2011-12-01' set @todate='2012-11-31' print @fromdate print @todate
Got the error as "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string." then i tried as below
declare @fromdate date declare @todate date set @fromdate=12-01-2011 set @todate=11-31-2012 print @fromdate print @todate
this time got the error as '' Msg 206, Level 16, State 2, Line 3 Operand type clash: int is incompatible with date Msg 206, Level 16, State 2, Line 4 Operand type clash: int is incompatible with date".
I have a table that has a DATE field named. AccountingDate that is in the format YYYY-MM-DD. It's not a VARCHAR field. I simply want to convert this date field into the format MM/DD/YYYY and call it New_Accounting_Date.
I've played with various combinations of CAST & CONVERT but haven't been able to get it to work.
Below is my latest effort which returns the error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'as'
What code would work to return a MM/DD/YYYY value for New_Accounting_Date?
Select GLBATCH.AccountingDate, convert(GLBATCH.AccountingDate as date),101) AS New_Accounting_Date from GLBATCH
I've imported a CSV file into a table in SQL Server 2012. It's a large file, 140,000+ rows, so I couldn't covert it to Excel first to preserve the date format due to Excel's row limit. In the CSV file, there were 3 column with date data in "31-Aug-09" format, and the import automatically transformed these in "31AUG09" format (varchar(50)) in SQL Server. Now I need to convert these 3 columns from varchar to datetime so I could work with them in date format.
Hi, Basically the above is a very common requirement, please comment on my solution which I've arrived at by searching through the web; -
In summary I have used 3 SSIS components these are "Flat File Source", "Derived Column" and "SQL Server Destination".
1) File Connections Manager Editor 1.1) Within File Connections Manager Editor; - Name the data type e.g. "INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE_SRC" and assign a type to the data type e.g. string[DT_STR]
1.2) Click on the Preview button to ensure the expected text is assigned to the expected data type.
2.4) Select "database timestamp [DT_DBTIMESTAMP] " as Data Type.
2.5) Within the Mappings tab of the SQL Destination Editor have; - Input Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE and Destination Column as INTERCHANGE_NET_APP_DATE.
Please comment on the above, I will then pass on my suggestion to Microsoft.
E.g, i have a store procedure. The start date is long date (4/15/2007 3:00pm). i want to select the start date with a particular date (short date format 4/15/2006). Thanks in advance.
I am trying get my VB6 application to insert a record into a table (SQL Express) which has a datetime column but it would not process if the data format is differ to *American Date format*.
The date() function in VB returns 15/11/2006 which is in Australian Date format (DD/MM/YYYY) according to my setting in "Reginal and Lanuage Option-> Locale 0> English (Australia)" setting.
I get the following error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Server KITSQLEXPRESS, Line 1 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.
My computer's locale is set to English (Australia) and I expect the datetime format would follow what is set in system locale
I've read an article somewhere on the net about how SQL 2005 eliminate the confusion of date conversion when read/write datetime records into a table...but it seems to me that it is still as in-flexible as MS Access
Is there a setting in the database that takes care of it?
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
Hello Everyone, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I'm creating a view in SQL Server 2005 to base a report on Crystal Reports XI. I've been trying to figure out how I can convert a date field in the format YYYYMMDD to MM/DD/YYYY. I'm not quite sure about the steps I need to take to accomplish this since I'm pretty new to this. The date is stored as an Int on the database, and I've tried converting it directly to the DATETIME data type like this: CONVERT(DATETIME, datefield,101) but I'm getting an error saying illegal data type conversion. Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it.
Hi Gurus, I need to convert this statement to sql server. SELECT to_date('24-08-2007 13:11:12','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'),to_date('24-aug-2007 13:11:12','dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss') from dual
I have a column date in my database which I should send it to Oracle database. The Date format in Oracle is number. I don’t know how should I convert the date to that format? Example : SQL FormatOracle Format 02/16/05 105046
I am in need of converting serial date to regular date ie...735510.40461 and only need the hours, minutes and seconds, I have used the examples I've seen on different forums,
The database for our software stores dates and times in clarion format. I'm trying to write some custom reports in T-SQL and I need to convert these dates but it's giving me a lot of trouble. How do I query the dates and times and have the results shown as a "regular" date/time? Below is what I have so far which is really the very beginnings of this report. Basically on the results/output I need the ClarionDate and ClarionTime to be shown as typical date/time columns. I did some research on my own but I'm having a hard time grasping this. I believe they have to be pulled into a temp table and then converted?
SELECT A1.DATEOFACCESS ClarionDate, A1.TIMEOFACCESS ClarionTime, A2.NAME Event FROM dbo.History A1 JOIN dbo.SysEvents A2 ON A1.RSVD_Action = A2.RSVD_EVENTTYPE
I'm trying to extract some data from a table in oracle. The oracle table stores date and time seperately in 2 different columns. I need to merge these two columns and import to sql server database.
I'm struggling with this for a quite a while and I'm not able to get it working.
I tried the oracle query something like this,
SELECT (TO_CHAR(ASOFDATE,'YYYYMMDD')||' '||TO_CHAR(ASOFTIME,'HH24:MM : SS')||':000') AS ASOFDATE
FROM TBLA
this gives me an output of 20070511 23:06:30:000
the space in MM : SS is intentional here, since without that space it appread as smiley
I'm trying to map this to datetime field in sql server 2005. It keeps failing with this error
The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data
I'm struck with error for hours now. Any pointers would be helpful.
