For me this worked:

INSERT INTO [MyTable]
           ([ValidFrom]
           ,[ValidTo])
       VALUES
           ('2020-01-27 14:54:11.000'
           ,'2023-01-27 14:52:50.000')

Answer 2

Please Try this.

SQL Server expects dates in MM/DD/YYYY format,If English is set as your default language.Here am saving datepicker value to sql2008 database.My field type is datetime in database.dpdob is my datepicker name.

           Dim test = dpdob.Text.Replace("-", "/")
           Dim parts As String() = test.Split(New Char() {"/"c})
           Dim firstPart As String = parts(0)
           Dim thirdPart As String = parts(2)
           Dim secondPart As String = parts(1)
           Dim test1 = secondPart + "/" + firstPart + "/" + thirdPart
           Dim dob = test1

Now use dob in your insert query.

Answer 3

Just update the date format as like bellow

yyyy-MM-dd hh:MM:ss

It solves the problem for me and it works fine

Answer 4

set Culture to english from web.config file

  <globalization uiCulture="en-US" culture="en-US" />

for example if you set the culture to arabic the thime will be

‏22‏/09‏/2017‏ 02:16:57 ص

and you get the error:Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string while inserting datetime

Answer 5

This is how to easily convert from an ISO string to a SQL-Server datetime:

INSERT INTO time_data (ImportateDateTime) VALUES (CAST(CONVERT(datetimeoffset,'2019-09-13 22:06:26.527000') AS datetime))
