I'm trying to add the date and time of Today into a Sql-database-field that has the datetype datetime.
[Code]...
the msgbox gives me the following result: 29/01/2011 18:49:21 my sqlException gives me the following error: 102 - Incorrect syntax near '18'. Is it better that i set the datatype to char in my sql database? It's maybe a bit easier? When I do that, can I calculate with these date?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to match a certain DateTime value with the current system DateTime. I have a timer and a label on a form. Timer interval is set to 1000. When the form loads, the timer starts ticking. As soon as the current DateTime matches the value of the variable, it shows a message in the label. When I'm writing the following code, the values don't match even if the current system DateTime is equal to the variable. Label1 isn't showing 'Times Matched':[code]The default format of 'Now' is the same as I have stored in dtmVar variable. So there's no question of format mismatch. Does that mean 'Now' is not actually a DateTime property? Provided, my O.S. is Windows Vista Ultimate and all date/time settings are set to default.

I am exporting data from an sql table to an excel spreadsheet in Visual Studio 2008. There is a field that is date/time that I only need the time part of (hh:mm).

Or am I missing and Import command at the top?Here is the code (field TimeofFall is the one I am having trouble with):

In my VB project I am returning an SQL datetime field to a date variable mdtCreated = CType(oReader("dtCreated"), Date) In an example it returns mdtCreated as #5/13/2011 2:59:43 PM# which is correct. Later on I want to show this as a string to dd/mm/yyyy format. I have tried mdtCreated.ToString("dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss") But that returns "13/59/2011 02:59:43". I want it to return "13/05/2011 14:59:43" How can I achieve this?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to format a datetime field to just show the date. The datetime is bound to an asp:label and for the Text attribute I have tried the following....
Text= String.Format("{0:D}", '<%# Bind("CReviewDate") %>')
and
Text= String.Format("{0:D}", <%# Bind("CReviewDate") %>)
[Code]....
In all cases I get a green wavy line under the equation and the tip help says "Validation (ASP.Net): If this attribute value is enclosed in quotation marks, the quotation marks must match. String.Format("{0:D}", DateTime.Now) is the syntax that I have been told should work.
I am not sure if this should be in the SQL or vb.net section.But, Basically I have a vb.net application from where I insert a datetime field into the SQL Server Database. Now for some reason the SQL server field(which is datetime) will not display AM/PM, I have referred this link where my code looks like this:
Dim dateToDisplay As DateTime = DateTime.Now dsNewRow.Item("date_created") = dateToDisplay.ToString("MM.dd.yyyy hh:mm:ss tt")
I tried stepping into the code by debugging and it seems to be inserting the PM but is not displayed in the table QuotedateToDisplay#8/12/2011 6:01:06 PM#Date
I have a date time picker bould to a Nullable Datetime field in a sql server datatable. The ShowCheckBox option is set to true.

View 5 RepliesI try to compare Datetime.Now with a Datetime variable I set, using the Datetime.CompareTo() method. I use a timer to compare these every second and display the result, but as the current time approaches the time I set, the result changes from 1 to -1, but never 0, which means these two are never equal. I'm suspecting the Datetime structure contains milliseconds?

View 6 RepliesFor a project I need to convert a date field in my SQL Server 2008 Database into a VB.net ListOf. Most of the records in StartDate field are NULL. VB.net doesn't recognize null values for DateTime.I need the NULL values to be dismissed, as they will be returned in a ListOf for a web service that I'm creating.
Here is my syntax and a sample of the current returned values in the XML message of the ListOf:

In VB.net code, I create requests with SQL parameters. It I set a DateTime parameter to the value DateTime.Now, what will my request look like ?
UPDATE table SET date = "2010/12/20 10:25:00";
or
UPDATE table SET date = GEtDATE();
In the first case I'm sure that every record will be set to the exact same time. In the second case it depends on how the DBMS processes the request. Which leads me to the second question : does SQL Server set the same date and time when updating a large table with NOW() ?
EDIT : replaced NOW() (which doesn't exist in SQl Server) by GETDATE().

I'm trying to load a datable into a datagridview, but column1 ("date") should be converted to a datetime, so I can sort it when I click on the datagridview header. I tried this, but it gives me that there is no column 0 or one. I have 2 columns: "ID" and "DateStart"

I've got a datatable with a DateTime field that I want to sort using a DataView. I only need the Time part of the column though, and not the date. I can't get it to show just the time and not the date as long as its a DateTime column. I know I could convert it to a string to get the time, but then it wont sort correctly.
View 1 RepliesI am having a major issue understanding why this code runs fine once and then when run a second time causes the "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime." exception. This program loops through folders and subdirectorys and retrieves the file dates from the last modified date of the file , Its only when i click New Report to reset all the values in the settings which clears all object lists and resets all the other values that this issue occurs.
This is the value being passed to this function:
#6/14/2011 4:46:51 PM# (The file inside the subdirectory,s last modified date.)
The function is
Public Sub setFileDate(ByVal fileDate As DateTime)
'Format the datetime from the filedate to a UK culture.
Dim myDateTime As DateTime = DateTime.Parse(fileDate, ukCulture.DateTimeFormat)
'Set the current files date.
dFileDate = myDateTime.Date

I'm just converting a date to a string but I'm getting this error. It's not listed as one of the normal exceptions to the datetime.tostring method. Googling around, it looks like it's an actual bug where it thinks StartDate is an int--but that's no help to me, as I just need to convert the date.
dim StartDate as nullable(of date)
dim Date1 as string
if not StartDate is nothing then
Date1 = StartDate.tostring("yyyy-mm-dd")
end if
I have a DataTable with two DateTime columns: "start_time" and "end_time".Now, I want to add a third column that calculates the difference between the two DateTimes.
