SQL Separate hours in Start and EndDate - sql

Question

I'm need a help to create a Query. My problem is I have a StartDate and EndDate and need separate this in blocs of 60 minutes.
DECLARE #STARTDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
DECLARE #ENDDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
SET #STARTDATE = '2012-11-21 11:03:00'
SET #ENDDATE = '2012-11-21 13:04:00'
I need the return:
Hour, Time
11 , 57
12 , 60
13 , 04

Answer 1

You could use a recursive CTE. For example:
declare #startDate datetime = '2012-11-21 22:05:00'
declare #endDate datetime = '2012-11-22 01:06:00'
; with TimeList as
(
select #startDate as dt
union all
select dateadd(hour, 1, dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, dt), 0))
from TimeList
where dateadd(hour, 1, dt) < #endDate
)
select dt
from TimeList
union all
select #endDate
The snippet dateadd(hour, datediff(hour, 0, dt), 0) removes the hours and minutes from a date. It does so by calculating the number of hours since date 0 and then adding that number of hours to date 0.

I unsure if i understood you but this will return the hour and minute after your start date at 60 min intervals.
DECLARE #STARTDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
DECLARE #ENDDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
DECLARE #time AS TABLE(id int identity(1,1), [hour] int, [time] int)
SET #STARTDATE = '2012-11-21 11:03:00'
SET #ENDDATE = '2012-11-21 13:04:00'
WHILE #STARTDATE < #ENDDATE
BEGIN
SELECT #STARTDATE = DATEADD(MINUTE,60,#STARTDATE)
INSERT INTO #time (hour,time)
VALUES(DATEPART(HOUR,#STARTDATE),DATEPART(MINUTE,#STARTDATE))
END
SELECT * FROM #time

You coan do it in three pieces. First piece is for the first hour, 60 minus the minute value, 2nd piece is time=60 for all hours between start+1 and end, third piece is end minutes
and then insert them into a temp table, as abstractChaos has done.
Insert into temp table like AbstractChaos:
DECLARE #STARTDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
DECLARE #ENDDATE AS SMALLDATETIME
DECLARE #TIME AS TABLE(id INT IDENTITY(1,1), [HOUR] INT, [TIME] INT)
SET #STARTDATE = '2012-11-21 11:03:00'
SET #ENDDATE = '2012-11-21 13:04:00'
INSERT INTO #TIME (HOUR,TIME)
VALUES (datepart(HOUR,#startdate) ,60 - datepart(MINUTE,#startdate) )
WHILE #STARTDATE < #ENDDATE
BEGIN
SELECT #STARTDATE = DATEADD(MINUTE,60,#STARTDATE)
INSERT INTO #TIME (HOUR,TIME)
VALUES(datepart(HOUR,#STARTDATE) , 60)
END
INSERT INTO #TIME (HOUR,TIME)
VALUES(datepart(HOUR,#enddate) , datepart(MINUTE,#startdate))
