SQL Query from Access to SQL Server

Hi

I'm trying to convert an SQL Query from Access to SQL Server. The
Access Query goes like this:

SELECT Format(EntryDat e, 'ddd mm dd') AS [Day]
FROM JournalEntries

This query returns the name of the day followed by month and date (Su
aug 21)

What would this be like in SQL Server ? What style id do I have to use
to get the correct format ?
Regards
Rune

select convert(varchar (11), EntryDate)

For more options on date formatting, look up the topic on Cast and Convert
in Books Online.

The best is to return the date a datetime value to the client, and let
the client do the formatting.

I am having performance issues on a SQL query in Access. My query is accessing and joining several tables (one very large one). The tables are linked ODBC. The client submits the query to the server, separated by several states. It appears the query is retrieving gigs of data from the table and processing the joins on the client. Is there away to perform more of the work on the server there by minimizing the amount of extraneous table...

I am struggling rewriting my query from MS Access' IIF, Then to SQL Servers TSQL language. I am hoping some one can give me some guidance.

Hi all, Would appreciate some advice on the following: I am trying to speed up an Access database connected to a SQL Server back-end. I know I can use a pass-through query to pass the sql code directly to SQL Server and speed things up. However, I want to be able to "filter" or place conditions on which records to retrieve based on LOCAL tables in Access.
