I have this piece of code in a sp:

SET WeekOf = RTRIM(Left(DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd,0,sd.LoadDAte)/7*7,0),10))

I am trying to just have the mm/dd/yyy and not hh:mm:ss in my smalldatetime field in the table. Is there a way to do this?

CAST(<DateTimeValue> AS DATE)

This puts mm/dd/yyyy 00:00:00 which then comes into my spreadsheet as mm/dd/yyyy 12:00:00 AM I have tried formating the cell in the spreadsheet but it is developed by code and evidently the control i am using does not have a date for a format of a cell. It has datetime. I suppose i could change datatype in table to varchar

Found a workaround

DateTime dtWeekOf = DateTime.Parse(dr["WeekOf"].ToString());
row.Cells.Add(dtWeekOf.ToString("s"), DataType.DateTime, "DateFormat");

Thanks.
