Please take a look at this...

SQL Date Time[^]

SQL

For SQL Server use CONVERT

INSERT INTO Table1 ([date])
SELECT CONVERT(datetime, '05/09/2013', 103)

Thanks!

Hi Sunil,

If the timezone part is important to you, here is one solution :

SQL

select convert(datetime, convert(datetimeoffset, stuff(substring('Thu, 31 Oct 2013 10:51:18 +0000',5,27),26,0,':'),1),1);

You can change the timezone part to see different outputs.

If all of the time zones are +0000 so you can ignore it completely:

SQL

select cast( substring('Thu, 31 Oct 2013 10:51:18 +0000',5,22) as datetime)

Using the SUBSTRING is to choose the understandable part for the SQL Server.

Good Luck.
