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.
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.
OK, I know this is really simple but I can't get my statement to pull just the date from a datetime field!
Here's my query:
select * from tblPR where date between convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate())+1,getdate()),103) and convert(datetime, dateadd(day,-day(getdate()),dateadd(month,1,getdate())),103)
I get no errors but I get the timestamp too and I only want the date.

I want to select only the date portion of a datetime field. the date normally shows as similar to '2004-01-01 09:39:52.000'
I need to return just '2004-01-01'. using convert and cast returns the dates as 'JAN 01 2004' - this won't sort correctly, so it is of no use. any suggestions?
We want to add a default date to our database tables. Looking at other database samples people use all sorts of dates to add as default date e.g. 1/1/1997 or the getdate() function. Is it good practice to set a default date and what should the default date be???? Newbie
Hi, I have a problem when I insert a date in a datetime field in a MSSQLServer. That's my problem: if the server is in english version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")
instead if the server is in italian version, I have to insert date with this code:
DateTime.Today.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
Is there a way to insert a date in standard way, without knowing the server version?
I have 2 tables that I would like to summarize a couple of columns for a full day of production(12:00:00 AM to 11:59:59 PM) based on passed variables. Here are my Tables:
I will pass in the @PlantID int, @IngredientID int, and @Days int. I want to sum the AmountBatched from both tables and display the total for each given day. The @Days will indicate the number of days to query off of previous to the current date. I would also like to eliminate weekends from the results. For example when stored procedure is run passing the following values @PlantID = 1, @IngredientID = 8, and @Days = 14. If date procedure is run is 5/9/2012, would like to summarize for 4/25/2012 to 5/8/2012 excluding weekends if possible.
Notice 4/28, 4/29, 5/5, and 5/6 are eliminated from the results, which are weekends. Is this possible in a sql stored procedure? I am writing an app in vb .net and am hoping to get the results I need in a single call to sql server and not have to make several calls back. I have not worked with advanced datetime methods in sql server before.
I have a datetime variable coming from my ASP.NET application that hasa time portion. I give my users the option to perform an equals,greater than, less than, or between comparison. The trouble comes inthe way the application builds the criteria string. The WHERE clausepassed in is in the format, "(start_dt = '2005/05/16 07:00:00.000')".What I want to do is only compare the date portion of start_dt to thedate portion of the passed in time. Manipulating the start_dt with thebuilt-in SQL functions isn't a problem, but altering the date passed infrom the ASP.NET would be a massive framework change in the app.Is there any way to only compare the date portions of both the SQLfield and the passed in value?Thanks.
I am trying to match records that are >= the current date. I have tried using: SELECT DISTINCT name FROM table WHERE datefield >= DATEPART(month, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(day, GETDATE()) AND datefield >= DATEPART(year, GETDATE()) ORDER BY name but this is not giving me the result that I am looking for. What is the best way to match a DateTime field type using the current date without the time?
How do I extract the ate and time from a datetime field. The field is called Log_DateTime. I want to extract the date and the time and then use these two expressions to sort/filter on in Query Analyzer.
from this, circdate being a datetime field:SQLQuery = "select distinct circdate from circdata order by circdate"I need the distinct date portion excluding the time part.this has come about when I discoveredI am inserting and updating some datetime values with the same value,but for some reason, the values are always off by a few seconds. I seta variable called SetNow assigned to NOW and then set the datetimefields to this SetNow variable. Then when I collect the distinct datetime I am assuming they will have the same values recorded incircdate, but no, they are off by several seconds. Makes no sense to meat all. I tried renaming the variable several times but it makes nodifference at all.any help appreciated, thanks.
I have a table of errors with a DateTime field for when the error occurred. I want to query the table for a given date range omitting the time portion. What is the most efficient way to perform this query?
Good morning.I am importing an XLS file into one of my tables.

Would it be better to combine the Date & Time fields into onecolumn? If so, how?2. What issues or problems might I have when I program SQL reports, ifI leave the fields as they are?Any comments or suggestions will be very much welcomed.Cheers mates.

My goal is to update the "PriorInsert" field with the "DateInserted" from the previously inserted record where the WorkOrder, MachineNo, and Operator are all in the same group.
While trying to get to the correct previous record, I wrote the query below.
P.S. The attached .txt file includes a create and insert tbl_tmp sampling.
select top 1 a.ID, a.WorkOrder, a.MachineNo, a.Operator, a.PriorInsert,
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 inserting date and time data into a SQL Server 2012 Express table from an application. The application is providing the date and time as a string data type. Is there a TSQL way to convert the date and time string to an SQL datetime date type? I want to do the conversion, because SQL displays an error due to the
My date and time string from the application looks like : 3/11/2014 12:57:57 PM
I need to pass in null/blank value in the date field or declare the field as string and convert date back to string.
I tried the 2nd option but I am having trouble converting the two digits of the recordset (rs_get_msp_info(2), 1, 2))) into a four digit yr. But it will only the yr in two digits. The mfg_start_date is delcared as a string variable
option 1 I will have to declare the mfg_start_date as date but I need to send in a blank value for this variable in the stored procedure. It won't accept a null or blank value.
print @@version print 'arithmetic with datetime' go begin try declare @datetime datetime = getdate()

Why the inconsistency? Datetime is lenient in this regard - I can even do set @datetime += 0.5 (although the meaning is less intuitive).
I am trying to populate a field in a SQL table based on the valuesreturned from using substring on a text field.Example:Field Name = RecNumField Value = 024071023The 7th and 8th character of this number is the year. I am able toget those digits by saying substring(recnum,7,2) and I get '02'. Nowwhat I need to do is determine if this is >= 50 then concatenate a'19' to the front of it or if it is less that '50' concatenate a '20'.This particular example should return '2002'. Then I want to take theresult of this and populate a field called TaxYear.Any help would be greatly apprecaietd.Mark
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?
Brand new to this, so please bear with me.I'm using the following code fragment to update a datetime field on a SQL Server 2005 database table:cmd.CommandText = "Update Projects Set EntryDate = " & Convert.ToDateTime(txtEntryDate.Text)cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()The result of the update operation is the the database field contains the value "1900-01-01 00:00:00:000". This probably means that I passed nulls to SQL; however, I see a valid date in the txtEntryDate field on my web form (i.e., "06/18/2007"). I also did a "Response.write" to display the txtEntryDate and it looks Okay.Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?Thanks!Using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express.
