Question

I am trying to convert my three parameters to a DATETIME but its not working. I get the error that the conversion failed when converting datetime from character string whenever I run this query. Perhaps I am doing in wrong in the conversion? If anyone can provide any feedback.

    @month varchar,
    @day varchar,
    @year varchar

AS
DECLARE @date DATETIME
SET @date = Convert(DateTime, @month + '/' + @day + '/' + @year, 101)

Select *
From events
Where (EDate = @date) OR EDateEnd = @date OR @date Between EDate AND EDateEnd
Order By EDate ASC

Answer 1

You need to set the size of your parameters. Probably something like

@month varchar(2),
@day varchar(2),
@year varchar(4)
