In your Select statement add this

Now my sql statement looks like this:

the column that there is a problem with is not a dateTime. It is varchar(50).

her you can see the error message:

Because your SQL Syntax is wrong
the right one is

ok now there is another error: Invalid column name 'dateTimeColumn'.

What is there supposed tol be in: [dateTimeColumn]?
I think that is the problem.

Kischi, it seems you in hurry!!! please be patient and think in codes before writing it. dateTimeColumn isn't column in your table program, rather I mean the column holds the date data.
Tell me your table columns if you faced another problem.

I'm sorry that I was in such a hurry. But I actually tried something else, but it didn't work.

I have 4 columns in the db. Here is hor it looks with the datatypes:

ID(bigint)
tid(varchar(50))
txt(text)
date(datetime)

It is tid that writes it like this: 30-12-1899 18:00:00

so that is the one I want to format.
so now I wrote [tid] instead of [dateTimeColumn]
But now I get another error: DataBinding: 'System.Data.Common.DataRecordInternal' does not contain a property with the name 'tid'.

You can see it on: http://radio.web.surftown.dk/udsendelser.aspx

Hope this helps?

Remove the container control (DataList, Repeater, etc...) and insert someone again... or try asking asp.net forum http://www.daniweb.com/forums/forum18.html

I found out that it has nothing to do with my coding. It is excel that writes: 30-12-1899 18:00:00 when I write 18:00 automatically.

So do you know anything about excel, because have tried to change it so it dousn't do it, but I don't know how?

Thanks
Kischi

let your SQL holds the date in any format, we won't care!!! what I care about? is date when returns, I suggest you a SQL statement to solve all of your problems.

But is that also possible when the datatype of the column is "Varchar(50)" and it is not "datetime"
