I know we can do a for dates.
Convert(varchar, Mydate,100) as 'MyDateFormat'
How do I do the same for money to currency so, to change the below prices to $00.00 format:
StartDate StandardCost ListPrice totalcost Profit

this seemed to work
'$'+Convert(varchar,Convert(money,StandardCost),1)
any better ways please let me know. I know its better to do this in the front end but if a client needs a quick export this is handy to copy straight to Excel. |

Sorted it, you dont need the SUM function.
Use AdventureWorks
Go
Select Convert(varchar,SellStartDate,100) as 'StartDate', -- convert to date format
'£' + Convert(varchar,Convert(money,StandardCost),1) as StandardCost, -- convert to currency
'£' + Convert(varchar,Convert(money,ListPrice),1) as ListPrice,
'£' + Convert(varchar,Convert(money,ListPrice + StandardCost),1) as totalcost,
'£' + Convert(varchar,Convert(money,ListPrice - StandardCost),1) as Profit
from Production.Product
Where StandardCost >0
Group by ListPrice, StandardCost, SellStartDate
Order by StandardCost
RESULT
StartDate StandardCost ListPrice totalcost Profit
