View 6 RepliesI have a record created date stored as" 2010-05-16 15:44:18.700" in sql server database. When I read this date it gets converted to "5/16/2010 3:44:18 PM" . How should I read it so that I don't loose the ending '700' value so that it gets written exactly to another database.Code for reading the record:
String myConn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DBConnectionString"].ToString();
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(myConn);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();[code].....
I am developing a C# VS 2008 / SQL Server 2005 Express website application. I have tried some of the fixes for this problem but my call stack differs from others. And these fixes did not fix my problem. What steps can I take to troubleshoot this?

On UI Ajax calendar control is used to allow the user Expiry Date as shown below. As this is one of the controls in search, when the Search button is pressed using SQL statement (copied below) data is retrieved from ExpiryDate column of the table. The table creator declared the column type as string and the dates are saved as single digits(Example: 2/2/10 sometimes and sometime as double digits (Example: 02/02/10) I like to know the best practice in retrieving both type of strings from database table.

Not a fan of creation and modifcation data in each table's row but I don't make the rules here. Something about normal comes to mind. Simple method to insert or update data in a table ia EF. Datatype = smalldatetime and no it is not changing across schema. Don't care about milli seconds. In oOrg = null I always fail because of a datatype mismatch.Not sure but didn't M$ make both of these products, and shouldn't the EF know about a smalldatetime when it reads the schema? So what is the fix outside of changing many tables to be datetime which is frowned upon at this piont.

I have SQL Express loaded on a separate box. I have my ASP.NET loaded on my local machine. When I try to connect I get the following error:
{"Cannot open database "MyDB" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'sa'."}
This absolutely mystifies me because the same UID and Password in my connection string is the one I use to log into SQL Express locally and it works just fine. I believe this to be a SQL Express specific problem but I am not quite sure what.
can I convert a database made in sql server 08 express to 05 express?

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to open SQL 2008 Express .mdf file in VS 2008 but I got the "...A downgrade path is not supported...." error. I have SQL 2005 express with its management studio too.
I expect that SQL 2008 express was installed with VS2008 because when I try to install it again the installation wizard shows that I have it installed already with Service Pack1.
I read the solution on some threads:
In Visual Studio, go to Tools -> Options -> Database Tools -> Database Connections, fill the SQL Server Instance Name with the name of SQL Server 2008 Express instance But how do I know the name of SQL Server 2008 Express instance?

View 1 Repliesquick question on SQL Studio Mgt Expres (SSMES) 2208. I have been googling around but could not find a clear cut answer to this simple issue:Is it possible to connect to a remote db using SSMES 2008? The options at login appear to be restricted to Database Engine and SQL Server Compact Edition only. On the SSME 2005 version, there was an option to connect to remote db's usging server name & pwd. Has this feature been disabled in the 2008 Express version?
View 2 RepliesI am beginner to sql database and asp.net.I want to fetch datetime from sql database and display it in textbox.I have wrote one stored procedure.The Procedure is
declare @o_Output varchar(30)
SET @o_Output =
getdate()
select @o_Output
Using the above procedure i'm getting current date and time.but my problem is i am hitting ql database while page loading itself. if i am hitting db on 12.40pm means, the textbox showing always the sametime only. I am trying to insert or update some data's into db that time only, i am hitting the db.The textbox datetime(12.50pm) has been changed that time alone. i want to update datetime to textbox at every minutes or seconds.
I have an EntityDatasource that is bound to several TextBoxes used for querying (filtering) data in a ListView. The problem I am having is getting a DateTime to work. I just want to ignore the time portion of the variable and only look at the Date portion. Here is the markup I am using to generate the where clause. Does anyone know how to force it to just "drop" the time in the comparison?

View 3 Repliesworking with sql server 2005/ visual studio 2005 asp.net c# i just wanted to know ... to insert a date to the database in a field that gets "dateTime" i need to insert the origin syntax. what is the right syntax for the datetime in the database? and to invent for users to insert a wrong sytax ... wich validations i need to put on the field? same question on the type "image" in database it gets like a jpg file? how do i insert an image to the database? If i have a textbox that contain a number ... and i want to ask somthing about the number. how do i do it ? .... like i now that i need to convert it to int i tried this way but it didnt work:

I'm using VS 2005 and SQL SERVER 2005,now i have a table with only two columns (their types: DateTime and SmallDateTime)
i key in some new records.Now I want to use GridView to retrieve that table, and use Calendar.SelectedDate as a parameter used in WHERE statement,I press "Test Query" and pop out a window "Parameter Values Editor",
here comes the problem.. how come the "DbType" is always 'Date'?After i click the list and select 'DateTime', but next time it will recover back to 'Date'I have to go to the source code find the "Dbtype" and change from "Date" to "DateTime" manually EVERYTIME~
Like This:
From:<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter ControlID="Calendar1" DbType="Date" Name="Date" PropertyName="SelectedDate" />
</SelectParameters>
To:<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter ControlID="Calendar1" DbType="DateTime" Name="Date" PropertyName="SelectedDate" />
</SelectParameters>
if i don't do this, it will lead to error:the version of sql server in use does not support datatype 'date'
It's weird that my original datatype is "DateTime" but the Dbtype is ALWAYS "Date" and lead to error everytime.
Datecol is a datetime in a sql table.
q="select convert(char(8),datecol1,112) from tblone where datecol2 is null"
is what I use for my query string for sqlcommand(). I'm getting the error "a field or property datecol1 could not be found in the datasource". Without the convert, the query is ok.

had a look around and a couple come close to the problem I have, but there more evolved than me, so it seems quite basic.I basically, want to store the current DateTime of when a button is hit. In order to achieve this I have a field in the table of SQL DB called 'TimeStamp' (Although strictly speaking its not, thats just what I've called it) using Datetime Datatype. I think I'm skipping some stages in order to accomplish it, although I'm not sure what it is I'm missing/doing wrong :SHere is my code:
[Code]....
I just have DID have "obj.TimeStamp = DateTime.Now;" but states I need to convert it (unsure how to do) Adding "ToLongTimeString" after .Now asks if I invoked the method. I've also tried a few other ways (saveNow.Now etc... ) but to no avail.

And then when I save....cs

I have been attempting to install sql server express 2008 but have come across problems. I downloaded it via web platform installer and it ran the install process, and I thought this would be it, but then upon creating some wizard log in controls on a website they won't work because its not installed. Then i relised I can't actually run the program, only some of its features. I then found the Installation centre and thought, oh I haven't actually installed it yet, and when I select new SQL server stand-alone installation or add features, instead of going through the process like it states on tutorials for installs, it asks me to browse for installation media, which I do not have because I downloaded the express edition.
View 3 RepliesI used that Microsoft Windows installer and installed visual web developer 2008 express and sql server 2008 so I thought. visual web developer works find.
When I look at sql server 2008 all I see is import export data link.
and the configuration tools.
In the configuration tools I see the following:
sql server configuration manager.
sql server error and usage reporting
sql server installation center.
So I figure sql server 2008 was not fully installed.d
I open the installation center and went to system configuration checker but I get a dialog
box that say browse for sql server 2008 installation media.
