I want to get only hh:mm from date.
How I can get this?
I have tried this :
CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), getdate(), 108)
Just use the first 5 characters...?
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(5),getdate(),108)
You can easily use Format() function instead of all the casting for sql 2012 and above only
SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(),'hh:mm')
This is by far the best way to do the required conversion.
Another method using DATEPART built-in function:
SELECT cast(DATEPART(hour, GETDATE()) as varchar) + ':' + cast(DATEPART(minute, GETDATE()) as varchar)
If you want to display 24 hours format use:
SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(),'HH:mm')
and to display 12 hours format use:
SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(),'hh:mm')
Following code shows current hour and minutes in 'Hour:Minutes' column for us.
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), GETDATE(), 108) +
(CASE WHEN DATEPART(HOUR, GETDATE()) > 12 THEN ' PM'
ELSE ' AM'
END) 'Hour:Minutes'
or
SELECT Format(GETDATE(), 'hh:mm') +
(CASE WHEN DATEPART(HOUR, GETDATE()) > 12 THEN ' PM'
ELSE ' AM'
END) 'Hour:Minutes'
The following works on 2008R2+ to produce 'HH:MM':
select
case
when len(replace(replace(replace(right(cast(getdate() as varchar),7),'AM',''),'PM',''),' ','')) = 4
then '0'+ replace(replace(replace(right(cast(getdate() as varchar),7),'AM',''),'PM',''),' ','')
else replace(replace(replace(right(cast(getdate() as varchar),7),'AM',''),'PM',''),' ','') end as [Time]
You can cast datetime to time
select CAST(GETDATE() as time)
If you want a hh:mm format
select cast(CAST(GETDATE() as time) as varchar(5))
Here is syntax for showing hours and minutes for a field coming out of a SELECT statement. In this example, the SQL field is named "UpdatedOnAt" and is a DateTime. Tested with MS SQL 2014.
SELECT Format(UpdatedOnAt ,'hh:mm') as UpdatedOnAt from MyTable
I like the format that shows the day of the week as a 3-letter abbreviation, and includes the seconds:
SELECT Format(UpdatedOnAt ,'ddd hh:mm:ss') as UpdatedOnAt from MyTable
The "as UpdatedOnAt" suffix is optional. It gives you a column heading equal tot he field you were selecting to begin with.
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'HH')
I used this to get the current hour in apex PL/SQL

I want to select getdate() in the format yyyy/M. I tried to write a query
SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(), 'yyyy/M')
but it is throwing an error.
I am a beginner in SQL. How do I get the yyyy/m format if there is only single digit month? E.g. the query should return 2016/1 when there is only one digit month (it should not return 2016/01) and should return 2016/10 when the month has two digits
How about getting the YEAR and MONTH part of the date and just concatenate them:
SELECT
CAST(DATEPART(YEAR, GETDATE()) AS VARCHAR(4)) + '/' +
CAST(DATEPART(MONTH, GETDATE()) AS VARCHAR(2))
Try this:
SELECT FORMAT(GETDATE(),'yyyy/MM')
SELECT FORMAT(CAST('2015-11-15' AS smalldatetime),'yyyy/M'),
FORMAT(CAST('2015-01-15' AS smalldatetime),'yyyy/M')
Gives:
2015/11 | 2015/1
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(7), GETDATE(), 111) AS [YYYY/MM]
OR
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(7), GETDATE(), 111)
I want to put the word "days" after the value, but the sql server is reacting that it cannot be converted. How can I also not select the negative integers difference.
SELECT PONo, PODeliveryDate, DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate) AS DayDiff
FROM PurchaseOrder
where POStatus='Complete' OR POStatus='Partially Completed' OR POStatus='Approved'
ORDER BY ABS( DATEDIFF( DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate ))
It gives me the difference of dates, but I cannot put the word days beside it.
I want it to look like 5 days not just 5
Try to convert the int value from DATEDIFF() to varchar and add your word
SELECT PONo
, PODeliveryDate
, CAST(DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate) as varchar(10)) + ' days' AS DayDiff
FROM PurchaseOrder
WHERE POStatus='Complete'
OR POStatus='Partially Completed'
OR POStatus='Approved'
ORDER BY ABS( DATEDIFF( DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate ))
Convert this first DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate) into VARCHAR before you concatinate.
CONVERT(VARCHAR(50), DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate)) + 'days'
In sqlserver 2012, you can use CONCAT.
To only get the positive days, you can cast getdate as date and compare with that in the WHERE statement. Then you dont need to order by ABS datediff.
The WHERE clause is easier to read and maintain by using IN instead of OR, it also makes is easier to maintain.
SELECT
CONCAT(DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), PODeliveryDate), ' days') AS DayDiff
FROM
PurchaseOrder
WHERE
POStatus in ('Complete','Partially Completed','Approved')
AND CAST(GETDATE() as date) <= PODeliveryDate
ORDER BY
PODeliveryDate
Can you try like as follow:
select CONVERT(varchar(10), GETDATE()) + ' Days'
You need to convert or cast into varchar before concate
I have a date column and a time column that are integers
I converted the date portion like this
select convert(int, convert(varchar(10), getdate(), 112))
I thought I could do the same with this query that gives the time in HH:mm:ss
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 108)
How do I convert just the time into an integer?
This should convert your time into an integer representing seconds from midnight.
SELECT (DATEPART(hour, Col1) * 3600) + (DATEPART(minute, Col1) * 60) + DATEPART(second, Col1) as SecondsFromMidnight FROM T1;
Assuming you are looking for the "time" analogy to the "date" portion of your code which takes YYYYMMDD and turns it into an INT, you can:
start with the HH:mm:ss format given by the style number 108
remove the colons to get that string into HHmmss
then convert that to INT
For example:
SELECT REPLACE(
CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 108),
':',
''
) AS [StringVersion],
CONVERT(INT, REPLACE(
CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 108),
':',
''
)
) AS [IntVersion];
You can use the differece between midnight and the time of the day. For example, using getdate(), you can know the percentage of the time of the day with this query:
select convert(float,getdate()-convert(date,getdate()))
You can then convert this number to seconds
select convert(int,86400 * convert(float,getdate()-convert(date,getdate())))
You'll get the number of seconds from midnight
I think this is easier to understand when using with a SQL Update statement.
UPDATE dbo.MyTable
SET TIME_AS_INT = CAST(REPLACE(CAST(CONVERT(Time(0), GETDATE()) AS varchar),':','') AS INT)
To add/subtract time from the result before converting use dateadd()
SELECT CAST(REPLACE(CAST(CONVERT(Time(0), dateadd(MINUTE, 1, getdate())) AS varchar),':','') AS INT)
I have a table with a column "modTime" formatted as datetime.
To fetch dates from this column I use the following line in my Select which returns a date in the format DD MMM YYYY:
CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), G.modTime, 106) AS modTime
Is there a way that I can return the date in a different format (like the following) when it matches the current date and only otherwise use the above format ? This returns the date as Today at hh:mm.
('Today at ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), G.modTime, 108)) AS modTime
Both ways work when I use them separately but I couldn't find a way to combine them using CASE etc.
You can try this:
select iif(G.modTime=getdate(),('Today at ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), G.modTime, 108)),CONVERT(VARCHAR(11),G.modTime, 106) ) from <table name>
Please note that IIF works only with SQL Server 2012 or later.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-IN/library/hh213574.aspx
For older versions, this post might help you:
SQL Server 2008 IIF statement does not seem enabled
you will not match to getdate() using equals, and you need to set getdate()'s time to midnight
select
case when G.modTime >= dateadd(day, datediff(day,0, getdate() ), 0)
then ('Today at ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(5), G.modTime, 108))
else
CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), G.modTime, 106)
end AS modTime
from G
Above I have used: dateadd(day, datediff(day,0, getdate() )
Instead you could use: cast(getdate() as date)
both, have the effect of giving you "today" at 00:00:00
I have this query
select CONVERT(varchar(5), tdate ,108) AS [Time] from table
which gives me the time in 24 hour format( military)
I wanted to convert it into a 12 hour format so i tried the query below
select SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR, tdate, 100),13,2) + ':'
+ SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR, tdate, 100),16,2) + ''
+ SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR, tdate, 100),18,2) AS T
from table
and i get the 12 hour format but I am just curious if there is a shorter or better way of doing it. any help?
If you want to convert the current datetime for example:
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, getdate(), 100) AS DateTime_In_12h_Format
Instead of getdate() you can put your desired column in a query (such as tdate in your example). If you want JUST the time in 12h and not the date and time use substring/right to separate them. It seems that you already know how to =).
This page lists every datetime conversion. It's really handy if you need other types of conversions.
This will return just the time, not the date.
SELECT RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, getdate(), 100), 7) AS time
For your table data:
select RIGHT(CONVERT(varchar, tdate ,100), 7) AS [Time] from table
Below code will return only time like 10:30 PM
SELECT FORMAT(CAST(getdate() AS DATETIME),'hh:mm tt') AS [Time]
Get date of server
SELECT LTRIM(RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), GETDATE(), 100), 7))
or
If it is stored in the table
SELECT LTRIM(RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(20), datename, 100), 7))
Result:
11:41AM
ifnull(date_format(at.date_time,'%d/%m/%Y'),"") AS date_time,
ifnull(time_format(at.date_time ,'%h:%i:%s'),"") AS date_time
This is how a SQL procedure looks...(for separating date and time)..there is no need of a special column for time/date....
Note:if H instead of h it will show the "hour in 24 hour" format
