For converting the number to a date, you can use the DateSerial function:

Description

Returns a Date value representing a specified year, month, and day, with the time information set to midnight (00:00:00).

Examples

=DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy",Fields!BirthDate.Value)-10, DatePart("m",Fields!BirthDate.Value)+3,DatePart("d",Fields!BirthDate.Value)-1)

=DateSerial(DatePart(DateInterval.Year,Fields!BirthDate.Value)-10,DatePart("m",Fields!BirthDate.Value)+3,DatePart("d",Fields!BirthDate.Value)-1)

=DateSerial(2007,10,24)

To get the name of the day, use the following Expression

=weekdayname(weekday(now()))

where you replace now() with your date(time) field.

Hi Willem,

the query i have used in sql is

SELECT DATEPART(YY, CHECKINTIME) AS Year, DATEPART(MM, CHECKINTIME) AS

Month, DATEPART(D, CHECKINTIME) AS 'Date', SUM(UPLOADLNCNT)

AS 'Total Lines', TRUSTID

FROM DEPTABLE

GROUP BY DATEPART(yy, CHECKINTIME), DATEPART(M, CHECKINTIME), DATEPART(D,

CHECKINTIME), TRUSTID

ORDER BY Year DESC, Month DESC, 'Date' DESC

and i tried the examples, but still i am getting error.

Please help me on this

There's a few things to be said about your query but syntactically it is correct.

Where are you getting an error and what does it say?

=DateSerial(DatePart("YYYY",Fields!Year.Value)-10, DatePart("m",Fields!Month.Value)+3,DatePart("d",Fields!Date.Value)-1)

If try something simple, it might make things easier and less errors,

If you could return the CHECKINTIME, just go the the Text Box Properties, in the Number/Custom section, using Custom Format:

dddd, will show name of weekday, like Monday, Tuesday...

d-MMM-yyyy, will show format of 0-Jan-2010...

Why are you still using datepart when you have already done the extraction in your query?

Try this:

=DateSerial(Fields!Year.Value-10, Fields!Month.Value+3,Fields!Date.Value-1)

You need to do an outer join with a table that contains all dates on which you want to report.

Check this topic for some inspiration.

Hi Willem, i tried on this query

select x.TRUSTID,Y.Date1, isnull(x.total,0) from

(select TRUSTID, Date=convert(varchar(25),UPLOADTIME,103),

Total=SUM(uploadlncnt) from DCLIVEJOBS where UPLOADTIME between '2010-01-01' and '2010-01-31'

group by TRUSTID,UPLOADTIME

)X

right outer join

(select '' as TA_A_NAme,convert(varchar(25),DATE,103) as date1,0 as Total from dbo.F_TABLE_DATE('01-Jan-2010','31-Jan-2010')

)Y on Y.Date1=X.Date order by Y.Date1

but i am getting 0 below the date column with a new row added (attached the screenshot), and more over i need to add a new row below the date date row and display the date as 31-Jan-2000
