Console C# APP: Convert given timestamp format to date

5 New Member
Hi

I want to convert timestamp forrmat to date. For eg:

Suppose I give timestamp format on Console as MM/DD/YYHH:mm:ss.
Output should be: 08/24/0714:34:32

If I give MM/DD/YYTHHmmss
Output should be: 08/24/07T143432

So I can give any timeformat and it should get converted to date dynamically.

Please help on this.

Thanks,

  1. DateTime dt = new DateTime.Now;
  2. string str = dt.toString("mm/dd/yyHHmmss");
that should do the trick

I would like to use php to query a database and retrieve a unix timestamp. The problem is that mysql is storing the data in the date format and not a timestamp. I am sure that I can amend my query to format the date returned as a timestamp without having to do the conversion in php. Can someone tell me what to put in my db query?

Trying to convert timestamp data to date data (without the time in hours/mins/secs), does only seem to work with TO_DATE(mydate; 'yyyymmdd'). But I do not want a string, but a real date like 29-03-2005. How do I get it like that? Thanks, Bob

Looking at the documentation on EXPORT, when exporting a date column it will automatically use yyyymmdd. One could choose to use ISO format, but unfortunately the client I'm exporting to can't deal with this and will only accept dd/mm/yyyy. Undaunted, I find that one can set the format when exporting a timestamp. So I thought of casting the date to a timestamp and then exporting with timestamp format set to dd/mm/yyyy. But one isn't...

I tried TO_DATE('20060308','YYYYMMDD') but I cannot get it to work. What else can I do to conver the data...

Hi, I can easily convert a TIMESTAMP to a DATE which will give me results in the format 'DD/MM/YYYY' however, what I want to do is convert the TIMESTAMP to just 'MM/YYYY' or even better 'MMM/YYYY'. I tried using the cast function as follows but it failed. CAST(CURRENT TIMESTAMP AS DATE FORMAT 'mm/yy')
