Issue converting String to DateTime to subtract 1 Day duration in XSLT
Hi
I need to subtract 1 Day duration from the input date which is in format "yyyy-mm-ddT00:00:00"( data type=String)
I tried using the available function: subtract-dayTimeDuration-from-dateTime() But, this function expects input as datatype datetime and hence on using this I am getting Null as the result of the transformation.
I have used dateTime() to convert the input string but it doesnt seem to be working as i get error "Invalid Xpath expression(null).
Please help in identifying anyother way i can convert the String into dateTime format and hence subtract the duration. Or some other way of subtracting the duration of 1 day from string itself.
Thanks for the help!
Hi,
It should work with the date on the format you have... Review the code, it may have some mistype... Also, in BPEL you should use the xp20 functions...
Have a look at this...

Converting string to Datetime?
Hello all,
I have seen tons of titles in this forum with the same like mine, but none of them helped solve my issue. It seems very simple, but it gives me a format exception. I am just trying to convert a string to datetime with a specified format.
string convertToString;
convertToString = (theWeek.AddDays(i).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"));
theDay = DateTime.ParseExact(convertToString, "dd'/'MM'/'yy", null),
Here theDay is also a DateTime variable.
These are the errors i get when I execute the code
1. When converting a string to DateTime, parse the string to take the date before putting each variable into the DateTime object.
2. When going into the details of the exception this is what I see " String was not recognized as a valid DateTime".
Please advise!
Thanks all.
Thanks, SumeshThanks Ante & JayChase for the speedy response.
I did it the way you mentioned and i was able to get rid of the exception, but still it doesn't show up in the specified format. It shows the time too which I am not asking for.
this is what I get now "3/17/2015 12:00:00 AM" .
I just want 17/03/2015.
Thanks again.
Thanks, Sumesh
I think I see the "problem" here. I suspect that there isn't one.
string convertToString;
convertToString = (DateTime.Now.AddDays(5).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"));
DateTime day = DateTime.ParseExact(convertToString, "dd/MM/yyyy", null);
This works perfectly, as it should. You appear to have set a breakpoint someplace and you're examining the Visual Studio "value" of the variable 'day.' You're unhappy that it displays in a manner that you don't like.
I believe that you're simply not understanding the difference between a System.DateTime object and a System.DateTime represented as a string.
To start with, a System.DateTime is a 64-bit integer value. According to the MSDN documentation page:
Time values are measured in 100-nanosecond units called ticks, and a particular date is the number of ticks since 12:00 midnight, January 1, 0001 A.D. (C.E.) in the
GregorianCalendar calendar (excluding ticks that would be added by leap seconds). For example, a ticks value of 31241376000000000L
represents the date, Friday, January 01, 0100 12:00:00 midnight. A DateTime value is always expressed in the context of an explicit or default calendar.
When you call the DateTime.ToString() method and specify an output style, you get the 64-bit value in the human-readable string representation you want. When you set a breakpoint and examine the variable in Visual Studio, you get the 64-bit value in
the human-readable string representation Visual Studio provides by default.
I hope this helps.

Hi,
I'm really struggling in converting a string which contains a dates to a DateTime datatype.
below is an example of how it looks
AdmissionDate
29.09.14 08:52
29.09.14 08:50
29.09.14 08:06Hi Sam,
you can use convert function to change the above string to datetime data type.
select
convert(datetime,'29.09.14 08:52',3)
select
convert(datetime,'29.09.14 08:50',3)
select
convert(datetime,'29.09.14 08:06',3)

Converting String to datetime format
I have a String which is in 04-DEC-78 format, I want it to be inserted in to a field in sql database.If I map directly I am getting
"Microsoft.ServiceModel.Channels.Common.XmlReaderParsingException: The input data for the field/parameter "e_date" is invalid according to the expected SqlDbType DateTime. ---> System.FormatException: The string '04-DEC-65' is not a valid
AllXsd value.
Tried to convert the string to datetime format in Mapping but getting error
public DateTime FormatCheck(string param1)
IFormatProvider culture = new CultureInfo("en-US", true);
return DateTime.ParseExact(param1, "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff", culture);
Inline Script Error: The type or namespace name 'CultureInfo' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Help me out!!HOLD ON!
Let's try to clear this up. If the input data is "04-DEC-78" then, sorry, none of the code posted so far will work.
"04-DEC-78" is not directly parsable so the .ParseExact format must match the source.
The format for xs:datetime is ISO 8601 which is like yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss-[offset]. Internally the sqlBinding will cast the XsdDateTime (the .Net xs:datetime implementation) to a SqlDateTime.
One very, very important missing detail is the type of the SQL parameter. Is it (SQL) datetime or string?
If the SQL parameter is datetime, then you can use this:
public string FormatCheck(string param1)
return DateTime.ParseExact(param1, "dd-MMM-yy", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).ToString("s"); -
Convert string to datetime and then use in a where clause
I am trying to pull in warranty expiry dates that have been entered as strings and then perform a calculation as to which ones are expired, about to expire within
90 days or will expire in more than 90 days. I have got the query to a point where I have converted it to a datetime field (though I'm sure I used the right value to just give me the date, its giving me date and time) and have it printing out the machine name
and the warranty for that machine.
SELECT
machNameTab.machName
,convert(date,auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldValue,103) AS warranty
FROM
machNameTab
INNER JOIN auditRsltManualFieldValues
ON machNameTab.agentGuid = auditRsltManualFieldValues.agentGuid
WHERE
machNameTab.groupName = N'root.company'
AND auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldNameFK = 958472722796011
What I need to do next is change this so instead of just spitting out all the dates as 'Warranty', I want it to give me the fields 'Expired', 'Expiring' (expiry date is within 90 days of the current date) and 90Days (expiry date is over 90 days from the current
date)SELECT
machNameTab.machName
,convert(date,auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldValue,103) AS warranty,
select
case
when datediff(day,getdate(),convert(date,auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldValue,103) )<90 then 'Expiring'
when datediff(day,getdate(),convert(date,auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldValue,103) )<0 then 'Expired'
when datediff(day,getdate(),convert(date,auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldValue,103) )>=90 then '90Days'
end as status
FROM
machNameTab
INNER JOIN auditRsltManualFieldValues
ON machNameTab.agentGuid = auditRsltManualFieldValues.agentGuid
WHERE
machNameTab.groupName = N'root.company'
AND auditRsltManualFieldValues.fieldNameFK = 958472722796011
I added a case to your select. The case will output the strings you wanted based on the date. -
Convert string to datetime produces error
Hi All,
I am trying to convert a string to a datetime. When I use the formula below with an alias table, it gives me an error "Invalid Column Name c1.Date"
SELECT CONVERT(datetime,left([c1.Date],2)'/'substring([c1.Date],3,2)'/'right([c1.Date],4),101) AS Date
FROM callrecords c1
Is there another way to convert the string to a datetime?
I am using CR 2008 SP1.
Thank you in advance.What happen if you run the sql without the conversion,
SELECT c1.Date FROM callrecords c1
do you still get the same error message?
if you don't get the error message you can let crystal do the conversion for you by using the following function in a formula
CDate ({c1.Date}) -
Converting string into datetime format
Hi,
I have a report within Apex that runs based on a select query. This select query uses a decode statement which retrieves the relevant date for each row. I am using to_char(hd.PLANNED_IMPL_DATE,'DD-MON-YY HH24:MI') in my select query to retrieve the times for each date. However when I try sorting the column, it sorts the dates according to strings. For example 08 OCT 08 14:00 will appear before 08 SEP 08 12:00.
Is there any way where i can change the data type to a date so that the sort works. I have tried using
select TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(hd.PLANNED_IMPL_DATE, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH12:MI'), 'DD-MON-YYYY HH12:MI')mydate from table x however this now truncates the times.
I do not want to alter the sessions. Is there any other way i can keep the times and so that the sort works?
Thanks
MonicaMonica:
Instead of applying the 'to_char' function to the date in the query, you could try setting the date-format mask for the column in the report's column attributes section.
Report Attributes -> Column Attributes ->Column Formatting -> Number/Date Format

I have installed SQL Server Express 2008 R2 on a Windows 7, language Brazilian-Portuguese ( PT-BR ). When I run a function which converts string to datetime it is raising conversion exception. I have tried the ANSI format 'yyyy-mm-dd' and 'mm-dd-yyyy', but
the only one that works is 'dd-mm-yyyy'. Is there any kind of settup that should be made to reset SQL Server to the ANSI default ?

I am trying to compare a DB2 date format to a date variable from SSIS. I have tried to set the variable as datetime and string. I have also casted the SQL date as date in the data flow task. I have tried a number of combinations of date formats, but no luck
yet. Does anyone have any insights on how to set a date (without the time) variable and be able to use it in the data flow task SQL? It has to be an easy way to accomplish that. I get the following error below:
An invalid datetime format was detected; that is, an invalid string representation or value was specified. SQLSTATE=22007".
Thanks!Hi Marcel,
Based on my research, in DB2, we use the following function to convert a string value to a date value:
Date(To_Date(‘String’, ‘DD/MM/YYYY’))
So, you can set the variable type to String in the package, and try the following query:
ACCOUNT_DATE BETWEEN '11/30/2013' AND Date(To_Date(?, ‘DD/MM/YYYY’))

Convert String to java UTC date then to sql date
Hi,
I am trying to convert string (MM/dd/yyyy format) to UTC date time and store in the database.
This is what I did:
String dateAsString = "10/01/2007";
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
formatter.setLenient(false);
java.util.date dateValue = formatter.parse(dateAsString, new ParsePosition(0));
dateValue will be Sun Sep 30 20:00:00 EDT 2007 in UTC.
Now I need to store this date and time to MS SQL database.
I used the following code:
java.sql.Date sqlDateValue = new java.sql.Date(parsedToDate.getTime());
But this code give only the date, not time 2007-09-30
Can anybody tell me how I can change this java date to sql date (or datetime?) so that I can get both date and time.
Thanks,

Converting strings to the floating number and plotting
Hello,
I have a question regardting converting string of numbers to the floating bumbers and plot for voltage vs. weight.
The load cell for the ADC resolution is 16 bits, and the voltage will be in between +-5 volts.
The problem, I have the most is converting the string of numbers to the floating numbers, in my case is the weight.

Converting varchar to datetime 103
Hi Guys
Im making a select query where in a colomn the date is yyyy-mm-dd, i need dd-mm-yyyy (103). A simple convert query does not work because the colomn is not set as a datetime but as a varchar. Its not possible to change the tables at the source.
The colomn name is DATE_IN
I think the following post could be helpfull but i dont know how to fix the given statements into the select query
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1509977/convert-varchar-into-datetime-in-sql-server> in a colomn the date is yyyy-mm-dd, i need dd-mm-yyyy (103)
As suggested above, this is string date format to string date format conversion, purely string operations.
If you convert to DATE / DATETIME first (universal internal binary representation), then it may fail if invalid date.
You can use the ISDATE or TRY_CONVERT functions to check if the string date is valid.

You need to provide an example value that's failing and the date formats in the reference data you're using. It's more than likely you don't have the correct format in your ref data.
