C# - Specify The Date Format Used With SQLServer Management Object Scripting?
Jun 17, 2009
When I'm generating my database scripts for my project I'd like to manage the date format that is used in the comments in the SQLScript.I have my regional settings set to Australian format, but they seem to be disregarded.
I'm trying to set the format of a column in a datagridview.When I put the format statement in the on load event for the form, it has no effect. When I put it in the cellformatting event I get the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. I checked the column name. What I am doing wrong?
This is the code:Private Sub MeetingTblDataGridView_CellFormatting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs) Handles MeetingTblDataGridView.CellFormatting Me.MeetingTblDataGridView.Columns("Starttime").DefaultCellStyle.Format = "HH:mm:ss" End Sub What I'm trying to do is get rid of the date part of a Date/Time field (stored in an Access database) in a datagridview column.
example: inside regional date format setting i set "Short date format dd/MMM/yyyy" and inside vb.net program i set "strSQL = strSQL & ",'" & Date(Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")) & "'" ----> working fine. if user changed the regional date format setting to other format like "mm/dd/yy" facing problem during saving record into sql table. error date conversion. It's possible to avoid using computer regional date format from vb.net? or have any other way...
I am working on a project inwhich I want same date format in all project forms. I want to use a form for setting/resetting date format for whole project. whenever I will change date format in this settings form, there should be this new date format available in all forms. how can I implement this?
these are dates. They have been given to me by data dump into and xls. I am reading in the values into my app and need to run date calculations on them.
am using VS 2005 and VB. However, if I am not using binding navigator, how can I manage the state of an object it is "added" ( or even "deleted") the property setter is only setting the state to "modified". where should i set it to "added" if i were to insert a new object to a database
I want to retrieve all the files on the local machine to take a look at their attributes.I tried it with io.directory as: [code]From their I need the logics to retrieve the list again and again to get all the directories on the machine, to check later on for their files. [code]The problem is, that I only got file information from my startup path of the application, but I want to retrieve all files on the local machine.
I have read a ton of stuff about this but not getting it, noob error I am sure

I'm creating a VB app that uses the Infragistics UltraGrid to display data from 2 JD Edwards files. Before the data is displayed, first I need to convert 2 date fields that are in JD Edwards Julian date format (i.e., 111158 for 6/07/11....the 158th day of this year) to mmddyy format.

I need to take a string formatted like '010711' (DDMMYY) and put it into format '01-Jul-11'. Ive thought about doing something like string.toArray and then having some conditionals that format from there but am looking for an easier way.
When retrieving rows from an SQL Server table I use the following code select mydate, Customer, Details from sales where mydatetime >= '" & format (somedate, "MMM d, yyyy h:mm:ss tt") & "'"This works fine unless the clients computers windows Region setting is 'English (New Zealand)'The default time format in windows Region and Language for New Zealand is [code]On computers with this region setting I get an SQL Error 'Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string'..If I manually select the other option for AM symbol, PM symbol in Region and Language i.e AM PM the all works fine again..What format string can I use so that above code always works, even if the Region time format is a.m. / p.m.
I am attempting to import data in a batch from an Excel Worksheet to a Sql Server database. Everything works except for the one date field in the spreadsheet. The date returned is off by four years from the value in the spreadsheet. Example: The Excel sheet has a date 10/24/2010 14:18, but when I look at the column in my query, the date is 10/23/2006 2:18. This pattern, 4 years and 1 day earlier, is repeated for every row in the worksheet.
The Excel column comes to me as a custom type, formatted m/d/yyyy h:mm. I receive this from an outside vendor and having them change the column is not going to be my simplest solution.
For what it's worth, the relevent part of the query is:
I have a problem. I'm making a alarm clock and I need a way of converting a "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss" format into a date time format. This means I'll be able to compare the dates in a listbox using the for each function, to the current date and see whever it has passed and therfore the alarm should be deleted. It is currently in a string form so I can't use < and > to compare it to the current date as that is in a date form. I've tried using CDate but it doesn't work as it only will convert these formats:
I have a date entered in from at DateTimePicker (dtDate.Value) and am writing it to an access database. This insert code works without the date, but not with it.
cant seem to get this to work , I am tryin gto get the date from last week exactly 7 days ago i get an error when i try this "cannot convert to date "
Private Sub frmMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim dateTimeInfo As Date = Date.Now MessageBox.Show(dateTimeInfo.Date.ToString(Format(DateAdd("", -7, "yyyyMMdd")))) txtFileDate.Text = "" End Sub
I am creating a program that will use sql 2008 as a back end and have run into an issue passing the date from the program to the database, where the date is also listed as 1900-01-01 in the database.The data type in the database is smalldatetime and i am trying to only display the date.If i change the datatype to date in the database i get the error that "sqlunhandled exception: Operand type clash: int is incompatible with date" Ideally id like to display the date in a dd/mm/yyyy format.[code].........
All of my regional settings in control panel are set to UK but when I retrieve a date from an SQL database (run from my PC) in my program, it appears in the MM-DD-YYYY format rather than the DD-MM-YYYY format that I expect.
After a bit of troubleshooting I found that this is because of the fact that SQL server always stores its dates in that format - so then when my program reads the data from the database it interprets it as being the US format.How can I convert this to UK format bearing in mind I am working with Date objects not strings?
I am trying to do a custom date format in VB.net using Format. The data coming in is "2009-10-03 00:00:00.000" and I want it to be "OCT 03 2009 12:00AM". I am using Format(object, "MON DD YYYY HH:MIAM") and am getting screwy results ... "2006-09-17 00:00:00.000" becomes "9ON DD YYYY 00:9IA9".
rs2.Fields("Field29").Value has values like "YYYYMMDD" in a string.how can i convert a "YYYYMMDD" string to a needed date format like 'dd mmm yy' (or any format)
If I declare my object at the beggining of my page class, and instantiate it in a dropdownlist selected_index change event. Shouldn't this object be available thru out the entire page and also persist thru a postback? I lose the object in my selected date change event in my calendar.
I'm using date in the format dd-mm-yyyy and I need to convert a string inthis format to a date type.My string is "18-01-2010" but when I do the conversion using dim TargetDate as date=CDate(TgDstr).where TgDstr is "18-01-2010", the resutant TargetDate, as note in the debugger window, is #1/18/2010# rather than #18/1/2010# which I expected.What change in code should I made to get the desired result?
(P.s. I've checked the current culture with the following line of code:
Dim str As String = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name and get the result 'zh-HK'... and the date-time format I find in the control panel is also in dd-mm-yy format)
i cant seem to create a datetime object in vb.net with datetime string that's in this format "hh:mm:ss tt MM/dd/yy".The error im getting says its not a recognisable string datetime format.
it gives me error as "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime."
so then i modify above code as -- CDate("28/01/2011").it gives me error as "Cast from string "28/01/2011" to type 'Date' is not valid." I used convert.todatetime also date.parseexact but nothing is working..
