In an extract I am dealing with, I have 2 datetime columns. One column stores the dates and another the times as shown.
How can I query the table to combine these two fields into 1 column of type datetime?
Dates
2009-03-12 00:00:00.000
2009-03-26 00:00:00.000
2009-03-26 00:00:00.000
Times
1899-12-30 12:30:00.000
1899-12-30 10:00:00.000
1899-12-30 10:00:00.000
You can simply add the two.
if the Time part of your Date column is always zero
and the Date part of your Time column is also always zero (base date: January 1, 1900)
Adding them returns the correct result.
SELECT Combined = MyDate + MyTime FROM MyTable
Rationale (kudos to ErikE/dnolan)
It works like this due to the way the date is stored as two 4-byte
Integers with the left 4-bytes being the date and the right
4-bytes being the time. Its like doing $0001 0000 + $0000 0001 =
$0001 0001
Edit regarding new SQL Server 2008 types
Date and Time are types introduced in SQL Server 2008. If you insist on adding, you can use Combined = CAST(MyDate AS DATETIME) + CAST(MyTime AS DATETIME)

Have a look at How to combine date and time to datetime2 in SQL Server? to prevent loss of precision using SQL Server 2008 and up.
If the time element of your date column and the date element of your time column are both zero then Lieven's answer is what you need. If you can't guarantee that will always be the case then it becomes slightly more complicated:
SELECT DATEADD(day, 0, DATEDIFF(day, 0, your_date_column)) +
DATEADD(day, 0 - DATEDIFF(day, 0, your_time_column), your_time_column)
FROM your_table
This is an alternative solution without any char conversions:
DATEADD(ms, DATEDIFF(ms, '00:00:00', [Time]), CONVERT(DATETIME, [Date]))
You will only get milliseconds accuracy this way, but that would normally be OK. I have tested this in SQL Server 2008.
This worked for me
CAST(Tbl.date as DATETIME) + CAST(Tbl.TimeFrom AS TIME)
(on SQL 2008 R2)
If you're not using SQL Server 2008 (i.e. you only have a DateTime data type), you can use the following (admittedly rough and ready) TSQL to achieve what you want:
DECLARE #DateOnly AS datetime
DECLARE #TimeOnly AS datetime
SET #DateOnly = '07 aug 2009 00:00:00'
SET #TimeOnly = '01 jan 1899 10:11:23'
-- Gives Date Only.
SELECT DATEADD(dd, 0, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, #DateOnly))
-- Gives Time Only.
SELECT DATEADD(Day, -DATEDIFF(Day, 0, #TimeOnly), #TimeOnly)
-- Concatenates Date and Time parts.
SELECT
CAST(
DATEADD(dd, 0, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, #DateOnly)) + ' ' +
DATEADD(Day, -DATEDIFF(Day, 0, #TimeOnly), #TimeOnly)
as datetime)
It's rough and ready, but it works!
If both of your fields are datetime then simply adding those will work.
eg:
Declare #d datetime, #t datetime
set #d = '2009-03-12 00:00:00.000';
set #t = '1899-12-30 12:30:00.000';
select #d + #t
If you used Date & Time datatype then just cast the time to datetime
eg:
Declare #d date, #t time
set #d = '2009-03-12';
set #t = '12:30:00.000';
select #d + cast(#t as datetime)
This was my solution which ignores the date value of the time column
CAST(Tbl.date as DATETIME) + CAST(CAST(Tbl.TimeFrom AS TIME) as DATETIME)
Hope this helps others
Convert the first date stored in a datetime field to a string, then convert the time stored in a datetime field to string, append the two and convert back to a datetime field all using known conversion formats.
Convert(datetime, Convert(char(10), MYDATETIMEFIELD, 103) + ' ' + Convert(char(8), MYTIMEFIELD, 108), 103)
Convert both field into DATETIME :
SELECT CAST(#DateField as DATETIME) + CAST(#TimeField AS DATETIME)
and if you're using Getdate() use this first:
DECLARE #FechaActual DATETIME = CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE());
SELECT CAST(#FechaActual as DATETIME) + CAST(#HoraInicioTurno AS DATETIME)
I had many errors as stated above so I did it like this
try_parse(concat(convert(date,Arrival_date),' ',arrival_time) as datetime) AS ArrivalDateTime
It worked for me.
Finding this works for two dates where you want time from one and date from the other:
declare #Time as datetime = '2021-11-19 12:34'
declare #Date as datetime = '2021-10-10'
SELECT #time + datediff(day, #Time, #Date)
DECLARE #Dates table ([Date] datetime);
DECLARE #Times table ([Time] datetime);
INSERT INTO #Dates VALUES('2009-03-12 00:00:00.000');
INSERT INTO #Dates VALUES('2009-03-26 00:00:00.000');
INSERT INTO #Dates VALUES('2009-03-30 00:00:00.000');
INSERT INTO #Times VALUES('1899-12-30 12:30:00.000');
INSERT INTO #Times VALUES('1899-12-30 10:00:00.000');
INSERT INTO #Times VALUES('1899-12-30 10:00:00.000');
WITH Dates (ID, [Date])
AS (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [Date]), [Date] FROM #Dates
), Times (ID, [Time])
AS (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [Time]), [Time] FROM #Times
)
SELECT Dates.[Date] + Times.[Time] FROM Dates
JOIN Times ON Times.ID = Dates.ID
Prints:
2009-03-12 10:00:00.000
2009-03-26 10:00:00.000
2009-03-30 12:30:00.000
To combine date from a datetime column and time from another datetime column this is the best fastest solution for you:
select cast(cast(DateColumn as date) as datetime) + cast(TimeColumn as datetime) from YourTable
SELECT CAST(CAST(#DateField As Date) As DateTime) + CAST(CAST(#TimeField As Time) As DateTime)
Another way is to use CONCATand CAST, be aware, that you need to use DATETIME2(x) to make it work. You can set x to anything between 0-7 7 meaning no precision loss.
DECLARE #date date = '2018-03-12'
DECLARE #time time = '07:00:00.0000000'
SELECT CAST(CONCAT(#date, ' ', #time) AS DATETIME2(7))
Returns 2018-03-12 07:00:00.0000000
Tested on SQL Server 14
simply concatenate both , but cast them first as below
select cast(concat(Cast(DateField as varchar), ' ', Cast(TimeField as varchar)) as datetime) as DateWithTime from TableName;
select s.SalesID from SalesTbl s
where cast(cast(s.SaleDate as date) as datetime) + cast(cast(s.SaleCreatedDate as time) as datetime) between #FromDate and #ToDate
The existing answers do not address the datetime2 datatype so I will add mine:
Assuming that you want to add a time value to a datetime2 value where:
The datetime2 value could contain non-zero time component and/or fractional seconds
The time value could contain the value 23:59:59.9999999 which is 86,399.9999999 seconds, 86,399,999,999.9 microseconds or 86,399,999,999,900 nanoseconds¹
Due to the limitations of dateadd function¹ you must add them in two steps:
Convert the time value to seconds and use dateadd(second, ...)
Extract the nanoseconds from the time value and use dateadd(nanosecond, ...) to add them to the date calculated above
declare #dv datetime2 = '2000-01-01 12:34:56.7890123';
declare #tv time = '23:59:59.9999999';
select dateadd(
nanosecond,
datepart(nanosecond, #tv),
dateadd(
second,
datepart(hour, #tv) * 60 * 60 + datepart(minute, #tv) * 60 + datepart(second, #tv),
#dv
)
);
-- 2000-01-02 12:34:56.7890122
¹ Nanosecond values might not fit in int datatype which dateadd function expects.
SELECT CAST(your_date_column AS date) + CAST(your_time_column AS datetime) FROM your_table
Works like a charm
I ran into similar situation where I had to merge Date and Time fields to DateTime field. None of the above mentioned solution work, specially adding two fields as the data type for addition of these 2 fields is not same.
I created below solution, where I added hour and then minute part to the date. This worked beautifully for me. Please check it out and do let me know if you get into any issues.

I want to display rateperkg column before date values
Try this

I think this will helps you

This code will set time to zero.
declare #DaVal as datetime
--111 will return yyyy/MM/dd
--101 will return MM//dd/yyyy
set #DaVal = convert(datetime, convert(varchar(25), DATEADD(d,-1,GETDATE()), 111))
select rateperkg from K_FS_FeedMrpDetails where date = #DaVal
Try using DATEADD() function and cast it to Date to remove time part like below
SELECT rateperkg
FROM k_fs_feedmrpdetails
WHERE date = Cast(Dateadd(day, -1, Getdate()) AS DATE);
If your date column stores date and time then use the below condition
where date >=convert(date,getdate()-1)
and date < getdate()
else
where date = convert(date,getdate()-1)
I am using the below SQL Query to get the data from a table for the last 7 days.
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE date >= (SELECT CONVERT (VARCHAR(10), Getdate() - 6, 101))
AND date <= (SELECT CONVERT (VARCHAR(10), Getdate(), 101))
ORDER BY date
The data in the table is also holding the last year data.
Problem is I am getting the output with Date column as
10/11/2013
10/12/2012
10/12/2013
10/13/2012
10/13/2013
10/14/2012
10/14/2013
10/15/2012
10/15/2013
10/16/2012
10/16/2013
10/17/2012
10/17/2013
I don't want the output of 2012 year. Please suggest on how to change the query to get the data for the last 7 days of this year.
Instead of converting a date to a varchar and comparing a varchar against a varchar. Convert the varchar to a datetime and then compare that way.
SELECT
*
FROM
emp
WHERE
convert(datetime, date, 101) BETWEEN (Getdate() - 6) AND Getdate()
ORDER BY
date
Why convert to varchar when processing dates? Try this instead:
DECLARE #Now DATETIME = GETDATE();
DECLARE #7DaysAgo DATETIME = DATEADD(day,-7,#Now);
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE date BETWEEN #7DaysAgo AND #Now
ORDER BY date
Use this, simply.
Select columnname
from tablename
WHERE datecolumn> dateadd(day,-7,GETDATE())
how to enter manual time stamp in get date () ?
select conver(varchar(10),getdate(),120)
returns 2010-06-07
now i want to enter my own time stamp in this like
2010-06-07 10.00.00.000
i m using this in
select * from sample table where time_stamp ='2010-06-07 10.00.00.000'
since i m trying to automate this query i need the current date but i need different time stamp can it be done .
You just want to append a time to your result? Like this?
select convert(varchar(10),getdate(),120) + ' 10.00.00.000'
or if you want to get it back to a DATETIME type:
select convert(datetime,convert(varchar(10),getdate(),120) + ' 10:00')
--SQL Server 2008
DECLARE #MyTime time, #MyDate date
SELECT #MyDate = GETDATE(), #MyTime = '10:00:00'
SELECT CAST(#MyDate AS datetime) + #MyTime
--SQL Server 2005 and before
DECLARE #MyTime datetime, #MyDate datetime
SELECT
#MyDate = DATEADD(day, 0, DATEDIFF(day, 0, GETDATE())),
#MyTime = '19000101 10:00:00'
SELECT #MyDate + #MyTime
"zero" date = 01 Jan 1900 in SQL Server
SELECT DATEADD(hh, 1, FLOOR(CAST(GETDATE() AS FLOAT)))
Once you have the floor of the date, you can add time to it.
DATEADD(datepart, number, date)
