Return date as ddmmyyyy in SQL Server

Question

I need the date as ddmmyyyy without any spacers.

How can I do this?

I can get yyyymmdd using CONVERT(VARCHAR, [MyDateTime],

Answer 1

Try this:

SELECT CONVERT(DATE, STUFF(STUFF('01012020', 5, 0, '-'), 3, 0, '-'), 103);

It works with SQL Server 2016.
