试试这个问题:

    SELECT SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR,JOINGDATE,103),7,4)AS
    YEAR,SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR,JOINGDATE,100),1,2)AS
MONTH,SUBSTRING(CONVERT(VARCHAR,JOINGDATE,100),4,3)AS DATE FROM EMPLOYEE1

结果:

2014    Ja    1
2015    Ja    1
2014    Ja    1
2015    Ja    1
2012    Ja    1
2010    Ja    1
2015    Ja    1

使用显式起点'19000101'更安全、更整洁。

create function dbo.fnDateTime2FromParts(@Year int, @Month int, @Day int, @Hour int, @Minute int, @Second int, @Nanosecond int)
returns datetime2
as
begin
    -- Note! SQL Server 2012 includes datetime2fromparts() function
    declare @output datetime2 = '19000101'
    set @output = dateadd(year      , @Year - 1900  , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(month     , @Month - 1    , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(day       , @Day - 1      , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(hour      , @Hour         , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(minute    , @Minute       , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(second    , @Second       , @output)
    set @output = dateadd(ns        , @Nanosecond   , @output)
    return @output
end

或者只使用一个dateadd函数:

DECLARE @day int, @month int, @year int
SELECT @day = 4, @month = 3, @year = 2011

SELECT dateadd(mm, (@year - 1900) * 12 + @month - 1 , @day - 1)

对于低于12的SQL Server版本，我可以建议使用SET DATEFORMAT结合使用CAST

-- 26 February 2015
SET DATEFORMAT dmy
SELECT CAST('26-2-2015' AS DATE)

SET DATEFORMAT ymd
SELECT CAST('2015-2-26' AS DATE)

如何创建这些字符串取决于你

我个人更喜欢Substring，因为它提供了清理选项，并能够根据需要分割字符串。假设数据的格式是'dd, mm, yyyy'。

--2012 and above
SELECT CONCAT (
        RIGHT(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), 4)
        ,'-'
        ,RIGHT(CONCAT('00',SUBSTRING(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) + 1, LEN(REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - 5)),2)
        ,'-'
        ,RIGHT(CONCAT('00',SUBSTRING(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), 1, CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - 1)),2)
        )

--2008 and below
SELECT   RIGHT(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), 4)
        +'-'
        +RIGHT('00'+SUBSTRING(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) + 1, LEN(REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - 5),2)
        +'-'
        +RIGHT('00'+SUBSTRING(REPLACE(@date, ' ', ''), 1, CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(@date, ' ', '')) - 1),2)

下面演示了如果数据存储在列中，如何使用它。不用说，在应用到列之前检查结果集是最理想的

DECLARE @Table TABLE (ID INT IDENTITY(1000,1), DateString VARCHAR(50), DateColumn DATE)

INSERT INTO @Table
SELECT'12, 1, 2007',NULL
UNION
SELECT'15,3, 2007',NULL
UNION
SELECT'18, 11 , 2007',NULL
UNION
SELECT'22 , 11, 2007',NULL
UNION
SELECT'30, 12, 2007  ',NULL

UPDATE @Table
SET DateColumn = CONCAT (
        RIGHT(REPLACE(DateString, ' ', ''), 4)
        ,'-'
        ,RIGHT(CONCAT('00',SUBSTRING(REPLACE(DateString, ' ', ''), CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(DateString, ' ', '')) + 1, LEN(REPLACE(DateString, ' ', '')) - CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(DateString, ' ', '')) - 5)),2)
        ,'-'
        ,RIGHT(CONCAT('00',SUBSTRING(REPLACE(DateString, ' ', ''), 1, CHARINDEX(',', REPLACE(DateString, ' ', '')) - 1)),2)
        ) 

SELECT ID,DateString,DateColumn
FROM @Table

尝试CONVERT而不是CAST。

CONVERT允许使用第三个参数表示日期格式。

我真的不明白为什么选择的答案明显依赖于服务器上的NLS设置，而没有说明这一限制。
