• Here's a one-command approach for the first one I did. It's uglier, but you don't have to call any procedures / functions.

    select convert(char(8),

    convert(datetime,

    convert(datetime, stuff(stuff('154040',3,0,':'),6,0,':')) -

    convert(datetime, stuff(stuff('133737',3,0,':'),6,0,':'))),

    108)
