Convert .NET Ticks to SQL Server DateTime

Question

I am saving a TimeSpan (from .NET) value in my db as BIGINT in SQL Server (saving the Ticks property). I want to know how to convert this BIG

Answer 1

You should be able to use the CAST function built into SQL Server.

SELECT(CAST(CAST(CAST ('02/02/10' AS datetime) AS BIGINT) AS datetime)) 

you get 2010-02-02 00:00:00.000
