is there a way to do this without creating a function?

<div>
YOU MAY TRY:-<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-35439657-1">SELECT   DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, GETDATE()), 0)</code></pre>
<br />
<br />
REPLACE GETDATE() HERE WITH YOUR DATETIME.
</div>


YOU MAY TRY:-



SELECT   DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, GETDATE()), 0)



REPLACE GETDATE() HERE WITH YOUR DATETIME.

<div>
further if you only want the time part:-<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-35439675-1">SELECT     RIGHT(DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, '08:12:34'), 0), 7)</code></pre>
</div>


further if you only want the time part:-


SELECT     RIGHT(DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, '08:12:34'), 0), 7)

<div>
another method for getting only time:-<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-35439694-1">select CONVERT(varchar(8),DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, '08:12:34'), 0),108)</code></pre>
</div>


another method for getting only time:-



select CONVERT(varchar(8),DATEADD(Hour, DATEDIFF(Hour, 0, '08:12:34'), 0),108)

Hi,<br />
<br />
How would I round myu field &quot;ClockTime&quot; to the nearest hour?<br />
<br />
So if I had 08:12:34, it must be rounded to 08:00:00

Hi,

How would I round myu field "ClockTime" to the nearest hour?

So if I had 08:12:34, it must be rounded to 08:00:00

SQL - Rounding datetime to the nearest hour

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.

Microsoft SQL Server

SQL (Structured Query Language) is designed to be used in conjunction with relational database products as of a means of working with sets of data.
