Definition DescriptionHow to convert from string to datetime? http://www.sqlusa.com/bestpractices/datetimeconversion/
Execute the following T-SQL scripts in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) Query Editor to demonstrate T-SQL CONVERT and CAST functions in transforming string SQL date formats, string time & string datetime data to datetime data type. Practical examples for T-SQL DATE / DATETIME functions.

-- SQL Server string to date / datetime conversion - datetime string format sql server

-- MSSQL string to datetime conversion - convert char to date - convert varchar to date

-- Subtract 100 from style number (format) for yy instead yyyy (or ccyy with century)

SELECT convert(datetime, 'Oct 23 2012 11:01AM', 100) -- mon dd yyyy hh:mmAM (or PM)

SELECT convert(datetime, 'Oct 23 2012 11:01AM') -- 2012-10-23 11:01:00.000



-- Without century (yy) string date conversion - convert string to datetime function

SELECT convert(datetime, 'Oct 23 12 11:01AM', 0) -- mon dd yy hh:mmAM (or PM)

SELECT convert(datetime, 'Oct 23 12 11:01AM') -- 2012-10-23 11:01:00.000



-- Convert string to datetime sql - convert string to date sql - sql dates format

-- T-SQL convert string to datetime - SQL Server convert string to date

SELECT convert(datetime, '10/23/2016', 101) -- mm/dd/yyyy

SELECT convert(datetime, '2016.10.23', 102) -- yyyy.mm.dd ANSI date with century

SELECT convert(datetime, '23/10/2016', 103) -- dd/mm/yyyy

SELECT convert(datetime, '23.10.2016', 104) -- dd.mm.yyyy
