SQL Format Function

Josh,

If you need a date/time in a format other than the standard ones covered by the CONVERT function, try out the FORMAT function:

SELECT
   
FORMAT(@SomeDateTime'yyyy-MM-dd'AS FormattedDateTime
  


This will turn a date/time like "2014-04-24 14:38:13.0000000" into "2014-04-24".
