RE: inserting into DATE colum
You only need format for the HH:MI:SS not the others.

Subject: inserting into DATE colum
Hi!
I have a question concerning inserting data in a DATE column. The deal is
that sometimes, I just wanna insert DD/MM/ and in other cases I wanna
insert DD/MM/ HH:MI:SS in the same column.
How can I handle that?
insert into TbTABLE values (To_Date('03/09/2001'), To_Date('03/09/2001'),
To_Date('03/09/2001'), To_Date('03/09/2001'),
To_Date('03/09/2001 11:11:11'))
Do I need to supply formatting information for the date to the insert
statement?
This is 8.1.6 on Win2k.
Thanks,
Helmut

RE: inserting into DATE colum
A database table date column always stores the date and time. For example is the
current date and time was 09-apr-2001 at 14:23.32 .
INSERT INTO MY_TABLE(MY_DATE) VALUES(SYSDATE);
This would store the entire date and time.
INSERT INTO MY_TABLE(MY_DATE) VALUES(TRUNC(SYSDATE));
This would store the date with a time of 00:00.00;
If you want to insert a date that is formatted in a varchar2 field into a date field
you would do the following.
insert into TbTABLE values (To_Date('03/09/2001','MM-DD-'),
To_Date('03/09/2001','MM/DD/'),
To_Date('03/09/2001 11:11:11','MM/DD/ HH:MI:SS))
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/09/01 02:26PM
Helmut,
If you want to insert the date in any format other than 'DD-MON-' or
'DD-MON-YY', you need to specify the date format when you use the to_date
function.

RE: inserting into DATE colum
Hmmm Whatever format you insert date into the date column, it is stored with time portion as well. The format mask would be of use when you RETRIEVE from the database.
