Date Format and Add Date Time Using SQL

Returns a specified date with the specified number interval (signed integer) added to a specified datepart of that date.

DATEADD (datepart , number , date )

Perfect date Format :

select 

convert(varchar(10),VALIDATEDDATETIME,103)+' - '+ 

REPLACE(REPLACE(RIGHT('0'+LTRIM(RIGHT(CONVERT(varchar,

DATEADD (hh , 5 ,VALIDATEDDATETIME),100),7)),7),'AM',' AM'),'PM',' PM')) 

as ValidTime, 

this represent Date -- convert(varchar(10),VALIDATEDDATETIME,103)+' - '+

this represent Time --

REPLACE(REPLACE(RIGHT('0'+LTRIM(RIGHT(CONVERT(varchar,DATEADD (hh , 5 ,VALIDATEDDATETIME),100),7)),7),'AM',' AM'),'PM',' PM')) 

as ValidTime,  

Datepart

Is the part of date to which an integernumber is added. The following table lists all valid datepart arguments. User-defined variable equivalents are not valid.

Datepart	Abbreviations
year	yy, yyyy
quarter	qq, q
month	mm, m
dayofyear	dy, y
day	dd, d
week	wk, ww
weekday	dw, w
hour	hh
minute	mi, n
second	ss, s
millisecond	ms
microsecond	mcs
nanosecond	ns

 Useful link for Format Structure

Execute the following Microsoft SQL Server T-SQL datetime and date formatting scripts in Management Studio Query Editor to demonstrate the multitude of temporal data formats available in SQL Server.

First we start with the conversion options available for sql datetime formats with century (YYYY or CCYY format). Subtracting 100 from the Style (format) number will transform dates without century (YY). For example Style 103 is with century, Style 3 is without century. The default Style values – Style 0 or 100, 9 or 109, 13 or 113, 20 or 120, and 21 or 121 – always return the century (yyyy) format.

– Date time formats – mssql datetime 

– MSSQL getdate returns current system date and time in standard internal format

                                        – 2008-10-02T10:52:47.513

– SQL create different date styles with t-sql string functions

SELECT replace(convert(varchar, getdate(), 111), ‘/’, ‘ ‘) – yyyy mm dd

SELECT convert(varchar(7), getdate(), 126)                 – yyyy-mm

SELECT right(convert(varchar, getdate(), 106), 8)          – mon yyyy
