str_to_date problem

2004-07-22 Thread symbiat
I have a time field formatted as hhmm however the hours field does not add leading zeros. eg 09:01 is simple 901. I want to get a standard format time out but, mysql str_to_date('901','%k%i') gives a NULL result. A further test reveals that I can covert into the desired format but not back.

Danny: What if you just pad the string, does it work then? str_to_date( LPAD( '901', 4, '0' ), '%k%i' ) Wes On Jul 22, 2004, at 2:05 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a time field formatted as hhmm however the hours field does not add leading zeros. eg 09:01 is simple 901. I want to get a
