Solution 3

SQL Server 2005 does support the DATETIME datatype, which also includes time. To store only the time, you can use the CONVERT statement:

SQL

SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME, '11:22:33')

It's not optimal, because the date part is not used, but still takes up storage space. But then again, downgrading a database to a previous version never is optimal.

Solution 1

For SQL 2005, I think you need to use DateTime data-type only. Then you can use convert as

SQL

Convert(varchar(10),YourDateTime,108)

In SQL 2008, you have a data-type called "Time" you can use that
