How can I eliminate the seconds part in my query. I have used DateADD to show the seconds part as 0 but I just want to ignore it. I only want to show the date hours: minutes I have used this query and it returns me something like this
SELECT DATEADD(minute, DATEDIFF(minute,0,GETDATE()), 0)
2013-09-30 13:03:00.000
But I want only 2013-09-30 13:03
part.
Can anyone help me?
If you're dealing with a format, then what you have to end up with is a string , not a datetime
value - datetime
s (or datetime2
s) don't have a format.
So you need to convert to a string. There's no format that exactly matches what you're asking for, but if you do a conversion and don't give CONVERT
enough space, it truncates the result:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(16),GETDATE(),120)
You can't stay in datetime2 format and truncate a part of it.
What you can try one of the following:
SELECT CAST(GETDATE() as date)
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(16),GETDATE(),120)
If this still doesn't give you exactly what you want, you can see many other possible conversions in this post .
