I want to split a datetime column so that the year and the month both have their own column in a select statement output. I also want to have a column by week of the year, a
check this
select datepart(Month,DateColumn) Mnth,datename(Month,DateColumn) MnthName,datepart(Year,DateColumn) Year1,((day(DateColumn)-1) / 7) + 1 week from dbo.Table
Try using the DatePart function as shown in the following:
select
datepart(year,Mydate),
datepart(month,Mydate),
datepart(week,Mydate)
From
MyTable
Note: If you need to calculate the week number by ISO 8601 standards then you'll need to use datepart(iso_week,Mydate)
You could also look at the DateName function
select
datename(month,Mydate)
From
MyTable
Here is another way. Use SQL Servers YEAR() and MONTH() functions. For week, I use datepart(week,Mydate) as noted by @DMK.
SELECT YEAR(MyDate), MONTH(MyDate), DATEPART(WEEK,Mydate) From YourTable
