Am trying to extract month from the current date but in vain. I am using the code:
Format(Today.Date, "mmmm")
However when I try to run it to display month like January it instead displays 00. I thought that this would work but it isn't. What can I do to get the month from current date in vb.net using a simple approach like a single function?
Try This :
DateTime.Today.ToString("MMMM")
Check out This for detailed date formatting options.
try this
MonthName(Now.Date.Month(),true)
msdn: Custom Date and Time Format Strings
Format(Today.Date, "MMMM")
EXTRACT(MONTH FROM NOW()) , getting month of current date

How can i compare Dates in Kotlin?
I have the Date of an Event as a String (Format:dd/mm/yy) and I want to check if it is within the next 7 Days of the current Date.
The time in this case is not relevant or if needet I would use midnight.
Can someone please help me with this?
In my current code i got both Dates by this:
val date = document.data["Date"].toString() //Example: 22/08/22 (dd/MM/yy)
val today = SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yy").format(Date()).toString()
this is within a Android environment.
I can't get the date more specific because i am getting it from a Database.
Parse string into LocalDate using its parse method. There’s no out-of-the-box DateTimeFormatter for dd/mm/yy format, but you can trivially create one using DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern.
Get current date using LocalDate.now().
diff = ChronoUnit.DAYS.between(now, date1)
Sorry - this may be a basic question, but I have been banging my head against this for a week.
I have a database field with the format "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss" called UpdateTime and referencing max(AuditHistory.ActionedDateTime) in the database.
I am trying to identify the Week / ISO Week from the date part of this field only using the dataset in ReportBuilder3.
I am trying to achieve an integer entry in a column called "WeekNo" giving me the week of the year that a transaction was made so I can use this for grouping results by year | by week number on a report for senior management.
I have tried many combinations of:
,DATEPART(WEEK,DAY(max(AuditHistory.ActionedDateTime)) AS WeekNo and
,DATEPART(WEEK,MONTH(max(AuditHistory.ActionedDateTime)) AS WeekNo.
If I use a static date, e.g. , DATEPART(WEEK,DAY('1900-01-20')) AS WeekNo, it returns perfectly as "4" but I cannot for the life of me get the datepart format correct to identify the week from the format of the field.
I believe my issue is getting SQL to accept that the field is "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss" and work out the week from the date element.
Before I go mad - I thought I'd ask if there is a quick way to achieve this.
The DATEPART function expects a date / datetime / datetime2 value. You are passing in an integer representing the day or month number.
Assuming you're storing your dates correctly, you just need to pass in the date value directly:
DATEPART(WEEK, Max(AuditHistory.ActionedDateTime)) As WeekNo
I'm trying to grab all rows that fall into the current month. For now, I'm just hard coding the month since I can't even get that to work properly.
I did the following to convert my dates to the format "DD-MON-YYYY'
SELECT "MOLECULE_NAME", to_date("FLASK_START_DATE", 'MM/DD/YYYY')
FROM EXCEL_SCHEDULE_IMPORT
Which gives me the correct date output I want. But now, when I try to grab all the dates that fall into this current month with the following code, it's a no go. Getting the error "invalid number".
SELECT "MOLECULE_NAME", to_date("FLASK_START_DATE", 'MM/DD/YYYY')
FROM EXCEL_SCHEDULE_IMPORT
WHERE to_char("FLASK_START_DATE",'Mon-YYYY')='JUN-2017';
Any help would be appreciated. I want to end up grabbing all values from a current month based off the system clock. So if you can do that... That would be cool.
EDIT: Turns out some of the dates in the date column turn out to have incorrect data, such as "Molecule" or "Sequence". So words instead of a date. Is there any way to ignore those values?
If you want data from the current month, why not just do:
WHERE "FLASK_START_DATE" like TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'MM') || '/%/' + TO_CHAR(sydate, 'YYYY')
Or:
WHERE "FLASK_START_DATE" like '06/%/2017'
Why go back and forth on string and date conversions? Also, you should be storing date in the proper data type -- called DATE.
I need to return just the date portion of the following formula: =NOW()-(WEEKDAY(NOW(),1)). Any ideas? I am using this formula to get the current date and then return the previous Saturday's date, but I am also getting the time component and I need to drop that portion.
This is the solution I used:
=DATE(YEAR(NOW()),MONTH(NOW()),DAY(NOW()-(WEEKDAY(NOW(),1))))
Is it possible to save the month/year in SQL Server 2008 with a regular datetime? I don't need a time stamp and the column is going to store unique mo/yr combinations (i.e. 10-11, 11-11, 12-11, etc,.).
Any recommendations?
Without knowing the intended use, it is not possible to advise correctly. However, storing month and year is easily done in at least three ways:
use a date field, but always store into it the first day of the month at midnight; then always custom format the date field for display
add integer year and month fields, and populate them by splitting a date
add an integer field where you encode it as year * 100 + month or some other useful scheme
Sql Server will store the datetime data in its entirety (year-month-day hour:min:sec.milliSec) no matter what.
When you store your dates, you can make the day the 1st of the month. Just format the dates how you want when you do your queries.
http://www.sql-server-helper.com/tips/date-formats.aspx
From SQLServer 2008 and onwards:
Save as a Date column and add the following check constraint to make sure the value is always the first of the month:
datepart(month, MyDate)<>datepart(month,dateadd(day, -1, MyDate))
You cant only store year and month in a DateTime column. Well, what you can do is default the rest of the values. ie: 2011.10.1.1 , 2011.11.1.1 like that.
Or you can store it as string.
SELECT RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 105), 7) AS [MM-YYYY]
You should try this
