Date and Time query

Hi,

I have created a datagrid which works just fine. One of the columns
retrieves the date which particular row was populated. However, the format
which the date is returned is:

19.12.2004 13:03:25

I only want to display the date that the row was populated, not the exact
time as well. Is there anyway I can do this, or is it an SQL problem when I
first created the table? I'm using a microsoft SQL server. The date is
generated automatically when a row is added to the table.

Thanks for your time

Is the date comming from a date field in your DB?
In that case you can format the date in your sql select statement.
Another method is to get the date for each row in ItemDataBound. Get the
date from you label/textbox and put it into a date variable, then save the
value back to the label/textbox using the method you want your date
diplayed. yourDateVariabl e.ToString("dd. MM.yyyy")

Hope this helps.

If we have a date/time field and are doing frequent queries WHERE {date/time field} BETWEEN TimeA AND TimeB Does it make sense, query speed wise, to create an index on the date/time field? The reason I ask is that TimeA and TimeB are significant down to seconds. My *assumption* is that with a large amount of data scatter very few records will contain duplicate date/time points. And that under these circumstances, indexing will be of...

I have a field type Date/Time that automatically defaults to Now(). I'm having a problem writing a query that will retrieve all the records for a specific date the user to enters when prompted. I could retrieve all the records for a specific date if I hard-code the date into the query, but not if I want to prompt the user. Has anybody else experienced this? Does anybody have any suggestions?

Hallo, I know a lot has already been told about date/time fields in a database but still confuses me, specif when dealing with SQLserver(Express). It seems that sqlserver only accepts the date in a "yyyyMMdd" format? (difference between Express and MSDE2000A ?) What is the one and only true way to deal with this problem in VB2005: Local settings are Dutch (Belgium) ; thus date is in "dd/MM/yy" (or perhaps dd/MM/yyyy) and time in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
