Convert date in sql format

how to convert a date in string format to sql date format?
thanx in advance

Use java.text.SimpleDateFormat to parse the String into a java.util.Date.
Create a java.sql.Date from the java.util.Date.
Use a PreparedStatement and its setDate() method to set the date in the SQL. The JDBC driver will take care of putting that java.sql.Date object into the correct format for your DB.

Re: How to convert date from ccyymm format to mmddyyI didn't inderstand. Date doesn't have any format. If you have a string in CCYYMM format, you would have to extract the YYMM from the string.

Convert smalldatetime type SQL format to Date in OBIEE

I have a SQL database which holds date in the smalldatetime type SQL format. I want to read this date in the OBIEE. How I can achieve this. I didn't find any direct CAST for this OBIEE Answers.
thanks,
Naresh

sorry to confuse here. I would reframe my question as following
Hi,
I have a data in SQL Database which is in ‘float’ format. The data is being stored for TimeStamp such that casting it for ‘smalldatetime’ gives the exact timestamp in SQL Server.
For example I have dates (dTime) column and the converted columns when did casting for smalldatetime gives following result (in SQL Server)
dTime (Float) ########################## small_date_time (CAST dTime AS smalldatetime)
40322.271099537 ########################## May 26 2010 6:30AM
40322.275706018503 ########################## May 26 2010 6:37AM
40415.121770833299 ########################## Aug 27 2010 2:55AM
Now problem is I have this (dTime) column coming as Double in OBIEE and when I’m trying to convert this to TIMESTAMP/DATE it gives error.
To Simplify I tried following query in Answers directly.
CAST(CAST('40322.271099537' AS CHAR) AS TIMESTAMP)
and the error shown is below
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 46046] Datetime value 40322.271099537 does not match the specified format. (HY000)
Do we have a way to get the format right by using cast or any other function.

Converting Date Column to format MM/DD/YYYY in RPD

Hi all,
I have a requirement like converting a Date column to format MM/DD/YYYY in RPD. Any help as we are not supposed to use the BI Answers Data Fomat for showing this format.
Thankyou,

Hi Saichand,
I need the resulting column in DATE format only. The solution which you specified converts the datatype to character. Is there anyway to convert the format but not the datatype.

Convert date to internal format

Hi,
I am getting date in the format as detailed below:
10/16/2005, 6/16/2005, 10/6/2005 - MM/DD/YYYY
I have to convert it to the internal date format.
Please help with the code.
Thanks
SAPBW

Hi,
Use Function module CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL.
It will consider all types of date formats 10/16/2005, 6/16/2005, 10/6/2005 etc. Whether you will give 1 or 2 digits to month or date. You can also give 2 digits to year even then it will converts to internal format.
You need to give dates in User defined format otherwise it generates an exception DATE_EXTERNAL_IS_INVALID.
DATA V_EXT_DATE(10) VALUE '10/06/2005'.
DATA V_DATE TYPE SY-DATUM.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'
EXPORTING
 date_external = V_EXT_DATE
IMPORTING
 DATE_INTERNAL = V_DATE
EXCEPTIONS
 DATE_EXTERNAL_IS_INVALID = 1
 OTHERS = 2.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
WRITE:/ 'INTERNAL FORMAT OF DATE IS: ', V_DATE.

Routine to convert dats to dec format

Hi experts..
I have one cube having date in DEC format and flatfile having date in DATS(yyyymmdd) format. i have used a routine in transfer rules as follows..
DATA: dats1 type p.
dats1 = TRAN_STRUCTURE-calday.
RESULT = dats1.
but i m not getting the date in cube in DEC format...?
Plz correct me...

sorry use TYPE /BIC/OIZDEC_DATE instead of LIKE...
one question, how is this filed stored in your cube fact table at the end?
Can you see the /BIC/F<cube> value in SE16 and let me know?
Can you also try to post your yyyymmdd directly without any routine? What's the result?
Perhaps the system converts it automatically into yyyymmdd anyway; this would mean that the behaviour is correct thus why do you want to post the numeric representation anyway??

How to convert date in varchar format to TimeZone format?

Hi,
Iam having a date '14-05-08 09:46:35 AM' (in Varchar format). How to convert this date to TimeZone ('IYYY-MM-DD"T"HH12:MI:SS"Z"FX') format?
For Example,
My input date is '14-05-08 09:46:35 AM' and I need output as '2008-05-14T09:46:35Z'.
How to convert this?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
You would look up the TO_TIMESTAMP and the TO_CHAR functions in the SQL reference manual for the version you don't mention, and make up the solution yourself, rather than asking someone else to do your homework.

Converting date in french format

Hi All,
Hi All,
Please let me know if you have any idea
I am converting the date to French /infact multi lang
select to_char(sysdate,'Fmddth Month, yyyy','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE =FRENCH') from dual
so this is giving me "8th Septembre, 2011"
but what i want is "8er Septembre, 2011" instead of "th" i need "er"
Thanks & Regards,
Dhana

from http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/ch3globenv.htm
Example 3-12 NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=FRENCH, Month and Day NamesAs an example of how to use NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE, set the date language to French:
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = FRENCH;
Enter a SELECT statement:
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'Day:Dd Month yyyy') FROM DUAL;
You should see output similar to the following:
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DAY:DDMONTHYYYY')
Vendredi:07 Décembre 2001
When numbers are spelled in words using the TO_CHAR function, the English spelling is always used. For example, enter the following SELECT statement:
SQL> SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('12-Oct.-2001'),'Day: ddspth Month') FROM DUAL;
You should see output similar to the following:
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('12-OCT.-2001'),'DAY:DDSPTHMONTH')
Vendredi: twelfth Octobre

Convert a date in String format to a Date

Hi,
How can I convert a date in String format to a Date object?
I have tried:
import java.text.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Locale;
import java.sql.*;
public class casa {
public static Connection con = null;
public static Statement s = null;
public static String sql = null;
public static String mydate = "01.01.2001";
/** Creates a new instance of casa */
public casa() {
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException{
try {
DateFormat shortFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT);
Date date = shortFormat.parse(mydate);
//Open Database
con = getConnection();
s = con.createStatement();
sql = "select date1 from table1 where date1 <= '"+date+"'";
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);
while(rs.next()){
String aba = rs.getString("datum");
System.out.println("New Datum = "+aba);
} catch (Exception ex ) {
ex.printStackTrace();
closeConnection(s, con);
//Connection
private static Connection getConnection() {
Connection con = null;
String user ="aouzi";
String passe ="aouzi";
String url = "jdbc:db2:EjbTest";
try {
//Datenbanktreiber laden
Class.forName("COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver");
//Verbindung herstellen
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,passe);
}catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
} catch(SQLException e){}
return con;
//close Connection
private static void closeConnection(Statement s, Connection con) {
try {
s.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
try {
con.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
I'm getting the following errors:
COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0180N
The syntax of the representation of a date/time of day value as character sequence is false. .SQLSTATE=22007

I'm pretty sure it won't understand what date.toString() returns. If you know what format the database understands, you do it like this:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy"); // e.g. 18-Apr-02
String datestring = sdf.parse(date);
and use that instead of date in your sql string. Some databases understands it if you do
"to_date('18-Apr-02')"
so you could include that in your sql string as well..
You could also try to make it a java.sql.Date and hope your jdbc driver knows how to convert it to a string that the database understands if you don't know the format:
con = getConnection();
PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select date1 from table1 where date1 <= ?");
ps.setDate(new java.sql.Date(date.getTime()));
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);
