That task should be done by the next layer up in your software stack. SQL is a data repository, not a presentation system
You can do it with
CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), fmdate(), 101) But you shouldn't
select convert(varchar(10), fmdate, 101) from sery 101 is a style argument.
Rest of 'em can be found here.
select convert(varchar(10), cast(fmdate as date), 101) from sery Without cast I was not getting fmdate converted, so fmdate was a string.
