C# & SQL Datetime

Hey guys, I'm having trouble searching for a date I fetch in C# in my database
in my application the date time value is in this format: 6/16/2010 9:41:19 AM in the database I use

CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),SR.StuDateOfReg,101)

to convert my date and extract only the date part but what I get is 06/15/2010.
I thought there should be no difference between 6/16/2010 and 06/16/2010,
when I execute this query

... WHERE CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),SR.StuDateOfReg,101) >= CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),'6/15/2010',101)

I don't get anything back but when I go for

... WHERE CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),SR.StuDateOfReg,101) >= CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),'06/15/2010',101)

It works!

so how can I change one to another?

regards,

Found it myself Big Grin | :-D

I used this function:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnFormatDate (@Datetime DATETIME,  @FormatMask VARCHAR(32))

RETURNS VARCHAR(32)

AS

BEGIN

    DECLARE @StringDate VARCHAR(32)

    SET @StringDate = @FormatMask

    IF (CHARINDEX ('YYYY',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'YYYY', DATENAME(YY, @Datetime))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('YY',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'YY', RIGHT(DATENAME(YY, @Datetime),2))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('Month',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'Month', DATENAME(MM, @Datetime))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('MON',@StringDate COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS)>0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'MON',

                         LEFT(UPPER(DATENAME(MM, @Datetime)),3))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('Mon',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'Mon', LEFT(DATENAME(MM, @Datetime),3))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('MM',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'MM',

                  RIGHT('0'+CONVERT(VARCHAR,DATEPART(MM, @Datetime)),2))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('M',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'M',

                         CONVERT(VARCHAR,DATEPART(MM, @Datetime)))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('DD',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'DD',

                         RIGHT('0'+DATENAME(DD, @Datetime),2))

    IF (CHARINDEX ('D',@StringDate) > 0)

       SET @StringDate = REPLACE(@StringDate, 'D', DATENAME(DD, @Datetime))   

RETURN @StringDate

END

dbo.fnFormatDate (SR.StuDateOfReg, 'M/DD/YYYY') >> 6/15/2010

That's not a good design. Change the data type for your date time values to 'datetime'. Furthermore, use parameterized queries. Then your problems should be easily resolved without long functions.

That is horrible. Don't use strings for dates (or numbers); it's terribly inefficient, especially when you convert the data in the table to strings and then compare -- don't do it!

Convert the incoming string to a date and then compare.

Set the KeyPreview of the containing form to true, handle the Form's KeyPress/KeyDown/KeyUp event depending on your needs and set the Button's Location property to the point you want.

Please only post once and give your post a title that indicates the problem in future.

First of all I posted in this forum for the first time.( i know it is a mistake now).

Secondly if my code was working i will not be looking for help. About deleting my code and reposting the question. You only said that it does not look right.

Anyway i will do it myself thanx have a nice day

Hi i am new in C#. i am developing a banking system in which each bank sends encrypted messages to each other. i am using 3-DES algorithm.
i am facing following problem.
user sends encrypted message to bank A and bank A decryptes it.here this algorithm works fine but when bank A sends this to Bank B then i am getting this runtime error

"Invalid character in a Base-64 string."

i am using the following code.

string cipherText = richTextBox2.Text.Trim();
            string mykey;                       
            byte[] keyArray;
            byte[] toDecryptArray = Convert.FromBase64String(cipherText);

            StreamReader objReader = new StreamReader("c:\\encryptkey.txt");
            mykey = objReader.ReadToEnd();
            objReader.Close();
            if (mykey.Length < 24) mykey = mykey.PadRight(24, '.');
            keyArray = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(mykey);

            tdes.Key = keyArray;
            tdes.Mode = CipherMode.ECB;
            tdes.Padding = PaddingMode.PKCS7;
            ICryptoTransform myTransform = tdes.CreateDecryptor();
            byte[] resultArray = myTransform.TransformFinalBlock(toDecryptArray, 0, toDecryptArray.Length);

            tdes.Clear();
          
            data = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetString(resultArray);

the same code works very fine for first time decryption but not for 2nd time. i am getting error in
byte[] toDecryptArray = Convert.FromBase64String(cipherText);

plz help me.
thanx

So, when you look at it in a debugger, what is the invalid character and where did it come from? Are you sure there are no control characters getting added on somewhere?
