(Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string) ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ Amvin [MSFT]February 9, 20151 Share 0 0 ISSUE Let’s say you are monitoring Replication Agent status and noticed that the Snapshot Agent has failed with the following error while generating a snapshot, particularly during creation of BCP files. Error: 241, Severity: 16, State: 1 Conversion failed when converting date and/or http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11139705/sql-convert-function-returns-error-241 time from character string. To further investigate the above error and to understand which query is causing it, run a SQL Profiler trace in the background. CAUSE In order to understand the cause of the issue, it’s important to look at the schema structure and the column on which indexing is https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/sqlserverfaq/2015/02/09/snapshot-agent-fails-with-error-241-severity-16-state-1-conversion-failed-when-converting-date-andor-time-from-character-string/ done. So let’s take a look at a schema script for a sample table “product” which has been published for Transactional Replication. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ product] ( [ItemID] [int] IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT FOR REPLICATION NOT NULL ,[ReportDate] [date] NOT NULL ,[ProviderID] [int] NOT NULL ,[InvoiceImmediately] [bit] NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_ItemUnbilled] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED ([ItemID] ASC) ) CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [IX_ItemUnbilled_ReportDate] ON [dbo].[ product] ( [ReportDate] ASC ,[InvoiceImmediately] ASC ,[ProviderID] ASC ) So the primary key (which is non-clustered index) is on [ItemID] column, and the clustered composite index is on three columns with the leading column as [ReportDate]. Before the error is raised, you will see something like the following query getting executed. Select * from [dbo].[syncobj_0x4434414538323435] where ([ReportDate] is null) or ([ReportDate] <= N'31/01/2014 00:00:00′) order by [ReportDate] ASC,[InvoiceImmediately] ASC,[ProviderID] ASC The “Where” clause we see here in the SELECT

(#241) Posted on 2013-04-26 MS SQL Server 2008 MS Access 1 Verified Solution 19 Comments 5,393 Views Last Modified: 2013-11-19 Hello, We have the following scenario : SQL Server 2008 SP3 running on Windows Server 2008 R2. Custom application running on Access 2007 frontend accessing the database on the SQL backend. Everything in this setup is running 100% Now we setup the following for a developer: SQL Server 2008 SP3 running on Windows 7. The same application running on Access 2007 frontend. The database is backed up from the producution server and restored to the developers machine. On the development machine everything runs correctly until you execute any query containing dates, as soon as you do this the following message is displayed : ODBC-- call failed [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server driver][SQL Server] Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string .

Does Windows Server 2008 R2 run English and the Win7 workstation some other language? The date fields in question, are they of data type DateTime2? If so, change them to DateTime. The ODBC driver cannot handle DateTime2 other than converting values to string in Access. /gustav 0 Message Author Comment by:dexani2013-04-26
