DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.

Here[^] is the first google hit I got. I assume LastLogin is a date, and it's converting it in to a string. 106 specifies what format the date should take in the string.

Solution 6

Convert is a function used to convert one data type to another.

Take a look at this link, its well explained. Convert function[^]

In your case the convert function is used to get datatime in a specific format. for 106 format is dd mon yy.

Solution 1

It converts Lastlogin field's data to varchar(20) (means only 20 characters allowed) format and show its output as lastlogin(Second) Field

Thanks.

That's wrong, at least according to documentation.

Solution 4

It converts "LastLogin" column (which I believe is a Date value) value of each row to varchar(20) and name the column in the output as "LastLogin" (alias). The last parameter denotes the format option. Go though this link for detailed list of formats.

Hope this helps!

Solution 5

The description is here: SQL CONVERT[^]

It converts datatypes: specifically, the column LastLogin is converted to a 20 character varchar field, with style 106, which means the date is formatted as "dd mon yy", so 3rd July 2009 would be converted to a string "01 JUL 09"
