    How do I select just the date part of a datetime row in my database?

    Select convert(varchar(10), getdate(), 110)

    Check out BOLS if you need a different formating (under convert/datetime and see which value you need to use instead of 110).

    SET NOCOUNT ON

    DECLARE @CTR INT

    SET @CTR = 100

    WHILE @CTR < 125

    BEGIN

    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), @CTR) [DATEFORMAT], @CTR

    SET @CTR = @CTR + 1

    END

    or

    Do you want datepart

    SELECT DATEPART(DD, GETDATE())

    SELECT DATEPART(D, GETDATE())

    SELECT DATEPART(DAY, GETDATE())

    I just want the date (1/1/1900) part of the row instead of the date and time (1/1/1900 12:00)

    My statement is a basic SELECT statement

    I'd tell you which one it is but since there's no difference between the months/days I'll have to let you find which convert to use. You'll really have to do some searching for this one.

    This one gives you the date without the time:

    SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME, FLOOR( CONVERT(FLOAT, GETDATE()) ))

    But, as SQL Server still has no separate date and time types (  ), you get a time portion of 00:00.

    When you don't want to see the time part you can use the CONVERT code as Remi says.

    Depending on the country you live it is in the mm/dd/yyyy, dd/mm/yyyy, yyyymmdd, etc format.

    Look in BOL (Books On Line) for the number that shows you the wanted format, eg. 101 (USA mm/dd/yyyy), 105 (British/French dd/mm/yyyy) or 112 (ISO yyyymmdd).
