SQL Server Cannot Call Methods on Date

Question

I\'ve got a DATETIME column in a SQL Server 2008 table called ShiftDate. I want to convert this to a DATE column in a query:

SELECT     ID, ScheduleID, Shift         


        

Answer 1

Sometimes this works...

CAST(CAST(YourDate AS char(10)) AS Datetime)

(Yes I know it is not Date, but it is one step closer)

In the same query, it worked in the outside select, but not inside the union all...

Don't ask why :P
