Inserting dates in mm/dd/yyyy format in excel sheet

I am reading data from sql server 2005 which returns dates in the yyyy/mm/dd format. Now I have to insert this data into an excel sheet and it is supposed to be in the mm/dd/yyyy format. I tried converting the date formats in java but when I insert the date as a String the program throws
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver] Data type mismatch in criteria expression.
If I try to insert it as a java.util.Date or java.sql.Date it also includes the timestamp(which i do not want ) since thats the way MS SQL Server returns it in the result set.
Someone said using PreparedStatement would help. How?
Can someone please help me ?

And I also dont have the time to learn these. So please help me if u canSorry - then you should just tell someone that it isn't going to happen.
Your requirements, excel and macros, is going to take a LOT of time.
At a minimum, without seeing the exact requirements and macros, myself I wouldn't start with less than three months of time.

I have read that ALTER SYSTEM changes will be effective immediately and there is no need to bounce the database.
right but if parameter is "modifiable" if not then we need to "restart database"
there three parameter with "alter system .... cmd"
1. Memory
2. Spfile ------------effect in next startup
3. Both ( Memory + spfile) Default
hope this helps
Let take example : PROCESSES is not modifiable parameter.

Converting string to date in mm/dd/yyyy format

Hi,
I used simpledateformat to convert date to "MM/dd/yyyy" format.
Now when i want to insert into db, i want the value as date object instead of string [returned by format method of SimpleDateFormat]
what should i do?
Date dt = new Date();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
System.out.println("Formatted date is coming as "+sdf.format(dt));
Date dt1 = sdf.parse(sdf.format(dt);
System.out.println("parsed date is coming as " +dt1);
output :
1 SOP returns 11/07/2007 [current date]
2 SOP returns Wed Nov 07 00:00:00 GMT+05:30 2007

If you are using PreparedStatements setDate method, you need a java.sql.Date object, not a Java.util.Date object. You can create an sql.Date object from a util.Date object as follows:
java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(dt.getTime());And, if you are not using PreparedStatement and its setDate method, then change now.
Doing
Date dt1 = sdf.parse(sdf.format(dt));is meaningless. You format the date to string, then parse the string back to a date? Why? Why not just use the original Date object? And you won't get a sql.Date object that way, either, as the DateFormat classes return a util.Date object.
Edit: And for more info:
A Date does not have a format. It is simply a number. The "format" only comes into play when printing the String representation of the Date, and that is not handled by the Date object itself (except when calling toString either explicitly or implicitly).

Valiadtion of date in dd.mm.yyyy format

i have a selection screen in which i want user to enter date in dd.mm.yyyy format only.how can i validate that.any FM.
i also want that date to be changed in yyyymmdd format coz i have to update that in a field which has yyyymmdd format.
so is there any fm for this also ( to change dd.mm.yyyy to yyyymmdd).
any pointers will help.

Hi Govind,
Based on the user defaults in the transaction SU01 the date will be verified based on the date format selected in the user details.
Declare the selection screen variable as of type Sy-DATUM.
what ever format you had entered the date in the selection screen the variable will hold the value in the format yyyymmdd.
no need to do any format for the date.
hope this might help you.
regards,
Phani.

Displaying date in dd/MM/yyyy format

Hi all,
I am having one date field .To display the date in correct format, I created a dictionary simple type of type date and entered dd/MM/yyyy in representation tab.
I was using 2004 and it was working properly. Now I am using 2004s for the same application. The problem is when I am selecting a date , it is showing the date in MM/dd/yyyy format in first time. If I selects the date again, then it will be in dd/MM/yyyy format. How can I make the selection in dd/MM/yyyy in first time itself
Thanks
Fahad Hamsa

Hi,
   Try this:
1. Create a simple type in the local dictionary. Call it say, CustomDateType.
2. Set the built-in type as date.
3. Go to the representation tab and under "External Representation" set the format to "dd/MM/yyyy".
4. Create a context value attribute day, CustomDate and set its type to CustomDateType.
5. Create an inputfield with id say, "DateField" and bind its value property to CustomDate.
6. Now in your wdDoModifyView() write the following code:
if(firstTime){
   IWDViewElement e = view.getElement("DateField");
   e.requestFocus();

Date in mm/dd/yyyy format

I have a dunning output that is prodcuing the date in mm/dd/yyyy format despite the user settings being dd/mm/yyyy - and there is no set country command on the form - any ideas of why this is occuring or how I change it.

Hi,
This can be because at time the date settings can be pulled from customer records.
For example. In SPRO you can configure date settings based on countries.
So if your customer belongs to XXXX country then it can pick up the date settings from SPRO.
You can check with a functional guy for the node where you do settings for different countries.
I will try and send you the details later as i dont have system handy.
Thanks

Calculate future date in MM/dd/yyyy format

Hi,
I am trying to add a 56 months to a given date (MM/dd/yyyy string) and output the date in MM/dd/yyyy format.
Here is my code:
               SimpleDateFormat date = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
               date.parse("07/30/2000");
               GregorianCalendar gc = new GregorianCalendar();
               gc.add(Calendar.MONTH,+56);
               System.out.println(date.format(gc.getTime())); I tried to assign date.parse() to a Date but there is no fomat method on Date so to add months to the date. Could someone suggest me how to calculate a future date?

thanks for looking, just found the answer:
               SimpleDateFormat date = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
               Date dt = date.parse("07/30/2000");
               GregorianCalendar gc = new GregorianCalendar();
               gc.setTime(dt);         //this was missing
               gc.add(Calendar.MONTH,+56);
               System.out.println(date.format(gc.getTime()));
