Hi,
Complete novice to this so please bear with me...have a view setup in SQL 2005 (see SQL below).

How or can I add an extra field that will convert tShift from DateTime to Date only i.e. 25-10-2012 12:36 to 25-10-2012 only ?

Thanks,

SELECT lOEEWorkCellId, sDescription, tShift, sPartId, dRunSec, dPartCount, dDownTimeSec, dIdealCycleTime, dTotalParts, tStart, sShift, dAvailSec
FROM dbo.OEEQWorkCell
WHERE tStart >= DATEADD(d, - 14, { fn NOW() })) AND (sShift = 'Shift 1' OR
sShift = 'Shift 2' OR
sShift = 'Shift 3') AND (dAvailSec <> 0)

       dAvailSec,
       DATEADD(dd,DATEDIFF(dd,0,tShift),0) AS tShiftDate
FROM   dbo.OEEQWorkCell
WHERE  tStart >= DATEADD(d, - 14, GETDATE()) 
AND (
         sShift = 'Shift 1'
         OR sShift = 'Shift 2'
         OR sShift = 'Shift 3'
     ) AND (dAvailSec <> 0)

FROM dbo.OEEQWorkCell
WHERE tStart >= DATEADD(d, - 14, { fn NOW() })) AND (sShift = 'Shift 1' OR
sShift = 'Shift 2' OR
sShift = 'Shift 3') AND (dAvailSec <> 0)
