How it looks: J From: Nancy Tietz [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 08, 2012 10:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: question on format of Remedy dates in SQL Server Hi all - I'm wondering how I convert my date fields so that I can understand them in sql server: Example: SELECT last_modified_date , convert(varchar(40), last_modified_date, 100) FROM HPD_Help_Desk WHERE Incident_Number = 'INC000000031823'; I expected the above 'Convert' to fix the Last_modified_date integer field into the readable format, but it didn't. Thank you for your help! I'm using ARUtilities's SQL tool to query the data. Thank you!
