truncation of datetime works fine in tsql but does not work when data loaded to txt file

  • I am trying to pull date format yyyy-mm-dd hh.mm.ss from '2016-07-05 02:38:52.1900000 -04:00'

    my sql:

    CONVERT(VARCHAR(19),datecolumn,120)

    this returns :2016-07-05 02:38:52.

    But when i load this column to my text file in ssis package from oledb to flatfile. it loads like this:

    2016-07-05 02:38:52.0000000 +00:00.

    Any reason why it behaves like this, can anyone tell me how to fix it?

    You're right: you cannot delete your posts. Editing them, however, is trivial and involves clicking on the button marked 'Edit' and modifying the text you wrote.
