Hi,

I have the below query to convert my date to 201302 (YYYYMM).
REPLACE(RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(9), Open_Date_Month_Key, 6), 6), ' ', '-') as Month_key

I want it as Feb-13. (Month-YY)

Can anybody extend the existing query to get the required result.

Regards
Kishore

Does the existing query already give you that?
See this illustration


SELECT REPLACE(RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR(9), GETDATE(), 6), 6), ' ', '-') as Month_key

output
--------------
Oct-13

we need to know the data type and an example value for Open_Date_Month_Key
