i want to make a table in sql server 2005 and i want that there should
be two columns one if date and other for time......
i want that date column should show only date but not time and the
time column should show only time not date......
i tried this but when i enter only time it shows date also n that is
1900-01-01 and when i enter date it shows time also i.e 00:00:00...
On SQL 2005 there are no date-only or time-only data types. However,
SQL 2008, just released have this.
In SQL 2005, the best you can do is:
datecol datetime CHECK (datecol = convert(char(8), datecol, 112)),
timecol datetime CHECK (convert(char(8), timecol, 112) = '19000101')
This constrains the time porttion for the date column to midnight, and
the date portion for the time column to 1900-01-01. The reason I picked
this date is that this is the "zero date" in SQL Server.
