Formatted date and time variable to store in MSSQLWe can format a date and time value before storing them or inserting them to a date and time field in MSSQL table. Here is a formatted date and time value which can be stored in record.
dtm="8/17/2007 7:44:56 PM"
Here the variable dtm stores the formatted date and time value. Let us try with one invalid date and time value like this
dtm="8/17/2007 7:74:56 PM"
The date and time field will generate an error message saying like this
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)
Type mismatch: '[string: "8/17/2007 7:74:56 PM"]'
/a/dt/insert.asp, line 29
So it is always a good idea to check the date and time by using isDate function and then we can insert the date value to our MSSQL table.
Here is the code to add a date variable to our record.
Dim dtm
dtm="8/17/2007 7:54:56 PM"
Response.Write dtm
if isDate(dtm) Then
rs.open "insert into dt(book_id,issue_dt) values( 9,'"& dtm & "')", conn
else
Response.Write "Please enter a valid date and time "
End if
