But I thought that you stated that you have a 64-bit SQL Server on a 64-bit OS? Argenis's blog doesn't apply to your situation unless I am wrong and you...

I would first consider creating an enumeration type table for the Action and using that instead of the name, i.e. 'BaseMaking' etc. Can you supply the desired outcome for the...

Try using CAST instead like so:drop table #datediff

create table #DateDiff (

Verdate char(10) null

,secdate date null)

insert #DateDiff

values ('20140101', '20140201')

SELECT *

FROM #DateDiff

where datediff(DAY,cast(verdate as date), secdate) <...
