How to convert the system date format to dd/mm/yy in SQL Server 2008 R2?

Question

I\'m using SQL Server 2008 R2. I want to convert the system date to this format: dd/mm/yy

\"2013-01-01 00:00:00.000\" to \"Score Calculation -          


        

Answer 1

   SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),101)  -- mm/dd/yyyy

   SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),103)  -- dd/mm/yyyy

Check this . I am assuming D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X is of datetime datatype .
That is why i am using CAST() function to make it as an character expression because CHARINDEX() works on character expression.
Also I think there is no need of OR condition.

select case when CHARINDEX('-',cast(D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X as varchar )) > 0 

then 'Score Calculation - '+CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X, 103)
end

EDIT:

select case when CHARINDEX('-',D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X) > 0 
then 'Score Calculation - '+
CONVERT( VARCHAR(11), CAST(D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X as DATETIME) , 103)
end

Answer 2

Try this

SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),101) -- Converts to 'mm/dd/yyyy'

SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),103) -- Converts to 'dd/mm/yyyy'
