SQL Query to get Day, Month and Year from Current or any date

Introduction: In this article I am going to share the sql query to find day, month and year from the current or any date using inbuilt DATEPART() or DAY(), MONTH() and YEAR() functions. 

In previous articles i explained How to split string from comma and get left and right part and Concatenate rows values as a comma separated string using for xml path and stuff in sql server and Count number of occurrences of character or word in a string in sql and Remove first or last character from string or column in sql server and Try catch to handle exception and commit/rollback transaction

Description: Many times we need to get the day, month or year part from the date. Sql server provides functions to get any part from the date/time. Here i have used DATEPART() and DAY(), MONTH() and YEAR() functions to get any part as per requirement. Here I am using current date from demonstration purpose. just replace the GETDATE() with the actual date if you want to get day, month and year from any other date.

Implementation: Let’s write a sample query to get the desired result

Using DATEPART() to get Day, Month and Year from current date

SELECT DATEPART(D,GETDATE()) AS Day, DATEPART(M,GETDATE()) AS Month, DATENAME(YY,GETDATE()) AS Year

OR

SELECT DATEPART(DD,GETDATE()) AS Day, DATEPART(MM,GETDATE()) AS Month, DATENAME(YYYY,GETDATE()) AS Year

OR 

SELECT DATEPART(DAY,GETDATE()) AS Day, DATEPART(MONTH,GETDATE()) AS Month, DATENAME(YEAR,GETDATE()) AS Year

Using DAY(), MONTH() and YEAR() functions to get Day, Month and Year from current date

SELECT DAY(GETDATE()) AS Day, MONTH(GETDATE()) AS Month, YEAR(GETDATE()) AS Year

Result:

Day	Month	Year
12	3	2016
