You're in the
sql server programming
group:Date Issue!
sql server programming:
The date is getting validated against the Ymd format, by using SET DATEFORMAT. In the Enterprise Manager - the date is displayed in local format (dmY). When i run a store procedure manually it is returned as Ymd. When i execute stored procedure from asp and load data into a recordset it is displayed in mdY Format. This is obviously quite confusing. Can anyone give me some insight into what

Hi since AJ is using ASP , there is format function in VB for formatting data so tht he can give as Format(DateColumn, "Ymd"). Renjith [quoted text, click to view] "Jens Süßmeyer" wrote:

OK, that makes sense, i just thought you mean th non-existing function

The regional settings on your computer influence how the date is presented
in Enterprise Manager. So if the regional settings are British Enterprise Manager will _display_ the dates in dd/mm/yyyy. Query Analyzer isn't influenced by the regional settings, and will always display dates in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss, which is known as the ODBC canonical dateformat. However, how SQL Server interprets the dateformat of strings depends on the settings for your login in SQL Server. In Enterprise Manager, look under <Server>\Security\Logins and look at the Default Language for your username (or BUILTIN\Administrators if you are a Windows administrator on your local machine). To avoid problems with dates as strings, use the formats that are always interpreted the same by SQL Server independent of any settings: yyyymmdd and yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss -- Jacco Schalkwijk SQL Server MVP [quoted text, click to view] "AJ" <AJ@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:FCADD866-6062-4125-9338-4C378973487B@microsoft.com... >I am storing dates in SQL Server 2000 (Using ASP). > The date is getting validated against the Ymd format, by using SET > DATEFORMAT. > > In the Enterprise Manager - the date is displayed in local format (dmY). > When i run a store procedure manually it is returned as Ymd. > When i execute stored procedure from asp and load data into a recordset it > is > displayed in mdY Format. > > This is obviously quite confusing.

I don´t know which Function you mean with FORMAT, but here is another option
for that. A good pratice for me is to get the data back in a very common format and to format it at the client side. The settings the date and time is formatted depends on some settings concerning the client, the User connnction to SQL Server (with it´s special user localized settings) or the server settings.

You need to change the query in all enviornments to use the convert date
standard formats. select convert(nvarchar,getdate(),101) Which returns in mm/dd/yyyy format. 05/23/2005 Refer to books online and search for CAST and CONVERT as search criteria and you will find the list of output standards. [quoted text, click to view] "AJ" wrote:
