SQL Server XML Date Import - sql

Question

Having trouble importing an xml date feild into sql server, the other feilds are fine. I have tried numerous way's but it always returns as null. Any help please
2014-02-18T12:15:21.357 is the issue
The XML is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<MISRoot xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/IGUK.Evolution.FieldToolLite.Lib.MIS">
<Claims>
<Claim>
<Amalgamation>
<ChannelSolutions />
<Name i:nil="true" />
</Amalgamation>
<Appointments>
<Appointment>
<Access />
<AccessGranted>true</AccessGranted>
<AppointmentId>320</AppointmentId>
<EnterTime>2014-02-18T12:15:21.357</EnterTime>
<LeaveTime i:nil="true" />
<Name i:nil="true" />
</Appointment>
</Appointments>
<CustomProducts />
<Id>1220</Id>
<Payments />
<Tasks />
</Claim>
</Claims>
</MISRoot>
THE SQL is
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[xmlImportAppointments](
[ClaimId] [int] not null,
[AppointmentAUTO] [int] not NULL,
[AppointmentId] [int] not NULL,
[EnterTime] [datetime] NULL,
[LeaveTime] [datetime] NULL,
[AccessGranted] [nchar](20) NULL,
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/IGUK.Evolution.FieldToolLite.Lib.MIS')
INSERT INTO xmlImportAppointments
(ClaimId, AppointmentAUTO, AppointmentId, EnterTime, LeaveTime, AccessGranted)
SELECT
ClaimId = xmldata.value('(Claim/Id)[1]', 'int'),
AppointmentAUTO = xmldata.value('(Claim/Appointments/Appointment/AppointmentId)[1]', 'int'),
AppointmentId = xmldata.value('(Claim/Appointments/Appointment/AppointmentId)[1]', 'int'),
EnterTime = xmldata.value('(Claims/Appointment/Appointments/EnterTime)[1]', 'datetime'),
LeaveTime = xmldata.value('(Claims/Appointment/Appointments/EnterTime)[1]', 'datetime'),
AccessGranted = xmldata.value('(Claim/Appointments/Appointment/AccessGranted)[1]', 'NCHAR(20)')
FROM
(SELECT CAST(x AS XML)
FROM OPENROWSET(BULK '\\XMLTest\increment.xml',
SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)) AS T(x)
CROSS APPLY
x.nodes('/MISRoot/Claims') AS X(xmldata);
SELECT * FROM xmlImportAppointments

You had a problem with your XQuery I had copied your File into a XML variable and was able to retrieve using the following query.
DECLARE #MyXMLVariable XML =
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<MISRoot xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/IGUK.Evolution.FieldToolLite.Lib.MIS">
<Claims>
<Claim>
<Amalgamation>
<ChannelSolutions />
<Name i:nil="true" />
</Amalgamation>
<Appointments>
<Appointment>
<Access />
<AccessGranted>true</AccessGranted>
<AppointmentId>320</AppointmentId>
<EnterTime>2014-02-18T12:15:21.357</EnterTime>
<LeaveTime i:nil="true" />
<Name i:nil="true" />
</Appointment>
</Appointments>
<CustomProducts />
<Id>1220</Id>
<Payments />
<Tasks />
</Claim>
</Claims>
</MISRoot>';
WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/IGUK.Evolution.FieldToolLite.Lib.MIS')
SELECT #MyXMLVariable.value('(MISRoot/Claims/Claim/Appointments/Appointment/EnterTime)[1]','DATETIME')
You did not specify the full correct path to EnterTime
'(MISRoot/Claims/Claim/Appointments/Appointment/EnterTime)[1]' --Correct
'(Claims/Appointment/Appointments/EnterTime)[1]' --Yours
Appointment is child of Appointments not the other way around and Claim is a child of Claims best way to do this is to look at Open tags and closed tags
