How to format datetime & date in Sql Server 2005
How to format datetime & date in Sql Server 2005
Execute the following Microsoft SQL Server T-SQL datetime and date formatting scripts in Management Studio Query Editor to demonstrate the multitude of temporal data formats available in SQL Server.
First we start with the conversion options available for sql datetime formats with century (YYYY or CCYY format). Subtracting 100 from the Style (format) number will transform dates without century (YY). For example Style 103 is with century, Style 3 is without century. The default Style values – Style 0 or 100, 9 or 109, 13 or 113, 20 or 120, and 21 or 121 – always return the century (yyyy) format.
– Microsoft SQL Server T-SQL date and datetime formats
– Date time formats – mssql datetime
– MSSQL getdate returns current system date and time in standard internal format
SELECT convert(varchar, getdate(), 100) – mon dd yyyy hh:mmAM (or PM)

SELECT convert(varchar, getdate(), 101) – mm/dd/yyyy - 10/02/2008
