Question

I am facing problem in DateTime converstion.
My input is 09/22/2011, I need to convert into 20110922.

I tried the below one, but failed.
Select CONVERT(VARCHAR(8),’09/22/2011′ , 112) as DateConv

Answer 1

Here you go:

SET DATEFORMAT mdy
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), CAST('09/22/2011' as DATETIME) , 112) AS DateConv

If your input is actually a dateTime variable like you said (but didn’t show in your code example), you can simplify this down to:

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), @myDate  , 112) AS DateConv
