Fairly straight forward... I have an EntityDataSource where, in the Select property I'm pulling a variety of fields. One of which is a Date that I would like to have returned in the "MM/dd/yyyy" format. How can I accomplish this?
You could use the .ToString(Format Here)
DateTime time = EDS.Field;
Console.WriteLine(time.ToString(MM/dd/yyyy));
This solution works fine with me:
cast(it.[interview_start_date] as System.String)

Im working in a project where I display different events in my view. The goal for now is to only show events that are upcoming, so it doesn't show events that are older than today.
The users of my page can create an event and set a sertain date for it.
The data is stored into my db like this:
$table->string('datum');
In the view it return it like this:
06.03.2019
My controller to return the data looks like this:
$date = date('d.m.Y');
$evententries = Event::where('datum', '>=', $date)->orderBy('datum', 'asc')->take(3)->get();
but it's somehow not working..
Anyone got any Ideas of how to fix this and what my issue is here?
btw, I'm using laravel 5.7.
Thank you :)
Hmm you are doing it on wrong way from begin...
First: why you are using string to store date value? there is much better options to store date within database...
Second: you are using date format which cannot be compared on that way (using < > =)
when you are comparing strings ie 08.03.2019 will be always smaller than 10.01.2016 because 1 > 0... so if you are comparing dates use:
db format for storing dates
for comparing use format yyyy-mm-dd because on that way even simple string comparison will give you correct result...
I am doing functionality testing(need to write hive code while referring Scala code) in my project. I am having an issue with my date functions in my code. In Scala we have casted our date data type into string as changed its structure into ‘YYYYMM’, MY value inside my date column is like 201706(YYYYMM), which is not accepted in Hive (read that it accepts only YYYY-MM-DD).
My question is
1) How to change the YYYYMM to YYYY-MM-DD? I have tried casting to date and also UNIX_TIMESTAMP neither of them are working query is getting failed at the end.
2) We are also using filter.to_date (colm1,”YYYYMM”).between(add_months(to_date((colm2),”YYYYMM”),-27), add_months(to_date((colm2),”YYYYMM”),-2))) in our Scala code , How can I change that to HIVE? Unable to get any ideas
Thanks In advance…..

use
unix_timestamp(DATE_COLUMN, string pattern)
Further understanding please refer DateFuncitos
The following conversion is not working. I would like to see if anyone can be able to solve it.
Syntax:
ToText(Date({db.field}),"dd/MM/yyyy")
System is saying that the date id is required.
however ToText( Date({db.field}), "dd/MM/yyyy") is working fine....
the other simplest way is :
Crystal Report Design Window->Right click on date field->format Field->Customize the date format as you want to.
I have a report, and when it runs, it pulls a date. When the date is displayed on the report, it is displayed like:
11/20/2012 12:00:00AM
I'd like it to be displayed like:
11/20/2012
When trying to edit the formula in the Format Formula Editor, I get the following error:
This one Works perfect in almost any case:
ToText(Cdate({Command.Payment Date}),"dd/MMM/yyyy")
Assuming the field is a DateTime you need to use the ToText function for this, i.e.
ToText({tablename.fieldname}, "MM/dd/yyyy")
I ended up using this formula:
ToText(Cdate({tbl_R002.Date}))
I have a problem of using the where clause for limiting dates
I can't even get a simple statement like on "Feb 5 2010" to work,
e.g.,
select * from LineItems where DueDate = 2/5/2010;
I tried
"2/5/2010"
"2010/2/5"
"2010-2-5"
"2010-02-05"
2010-2-5
2010-02-05
...
but none worked.
Does anyone have an idea what the proper format for the date should
be? And should it be quoted?
Thank You!
This works for me in a Query
SELECT *
FROM Table1
where mydate = 2010/2/5
Writing a date like that is unambiguous; the other way round will depend on your locale settings.
Hey Guys, I did figured out that you must surround the date with a pair of #'s. Just leaving the date unsurrounded does not work for me. I figured this out by saving a "Filter" in the Data View of Access as query, then I looked at that query in SQL view.
