| i am trying to import a large excel file which has some dates into a sql table, which has only varchar fields.i tried to format the excel 's mm/dd/yyyy cell format to text or general, but the dates came up wierd. if i import the file onto this sql table, it will automatically convert the mm/dd/yyyy as a real dateTime field and put in 12:00AM after it, eventhough that column is a varchar column.any advice on how to convert the excel columns into texts and keeping the integrity of the dates in mm/dd/yyyy format?thanks for your help! |
