I tried it and, no.. you'll get an error when you connect to sql server 2005 from SQL Server 2000 enterprise manager.

Actually you are not giving the size of varchar so by default it will take varchar(1) and you will not be able to insert the record which is greater than 1 character. You have to do like this:-

Create Table Purchase (Name varchar(50),Amount numeric(10,2))

1 . Gaytri it may possible that racords are not matche
2. Or Pass the Date as 07/25/2007 not 7/25/2007
Old tA.CreateDate = '7/25/2007' i think it is problem
New tA.CreateDate = '07/25/2007'

Data stored in CreatedDate colum is DateTime i.e. the column has both date and Time.

but while retrieving you are using only Date. so Automatically system takes time as "00:00:00"

change you condition to ...
ta.CreateDate BETWEEN '25-Jul-2007' AND '26-Jul-2007'

This is because of format of date is different in your table column field(i.e. CreateDate and you are comparing this date with another format which is mm/dd/yyyy. If you want to do it then you have to convert your format and you will sure get result. Now use this query to get the result.

select tU.UserID,tU.FirstName,tU.LastName,<br />
tU.LastName+''+ tU.FirstName'UserId',<br />
tA.UserID,tA.CreateDate,<br />
tA.UpdateDate<br />
from tAnalyst tA,<br />
tUser tU<br />
where tU.UserID=tA.UserID<br />
and<br />
convert(varchar,tA.CreateDate,101)='07/25/2007'

hi
whenever you are dealing with dates..convert the dates to a common format...
you can use convert function for this.

Hi Kiran,

The code below will insert '15' into ten zeroes and keep it right justified.
You will just need to jiggle things a bit substituting your number for '15'

<br />
select stuff('0000000000',11-len('15'),len('15'),'15')<br />

Or even better

<br />
select stuff(replicate('0',10),11-len(cast(15 as varchar(100))),len(cast(15 as varchar(100))),cast(15 as varchar(100)))<br />

I hope this is of help.

Guy

You always pass failure on the way to success.

I think this is easier:

SELECT RIGHT('00000000' + Ltrim(str(MyKey)), 8)

If you are using sql server then you can use the following query:
SELECT column_name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'name_of_the_table'
