| My results set included datetime2 fields but when I copied the results to an EXCEL file I lost the Date - I only had the Time showing. I used a CAST function in my Select statement to remove the time and that was successfully saved to EXCEL. I'm curious to understand how I lost the Date information before and whether there is a more efficient way of resolving this particularly when I need both date and time in the future. Thanks |

| You didn't lose it. After pasting, reformat the date column and everything should be there. In Excel I usually custom format dates as "mm/dd/yyyy"JimEveryday I learn something that somebody else already knew |
