How to get the current date and Time upon oracle insert into a database table
How can I get the current date AND time ? I have experimented, but no success, because I am only getting the date and not the time.
Can someone help me out?
(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and or TO_DATE(sysdate,'dd/mm/yyy
This is what I tried :
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',TO_DATE(sysdate,'d
Can someone help me out?
(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and or TO_DATE(sysdate,'dd/mm/yyy
This is what I tried :
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',TO_DATE(sysdate,'d

Based on your reply, I tried this, but it is not working? I am still getting only the date and not the time.
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',sysdate);
INSERT INTO MYTABLE (TABLENAME, DATETIME) VALUES ('Test',sysdate);

Just in case you missed my post:
How do you know? When you select it, are you providing the correct format mask?

What do you mean sir? After I run the insert code, I then select everything from the table, and I get the following : 09-MAR-17
SELECT * FROM MYTABLE
gives :
'Test', 09-MAR-17
Should my select be different, or should my insert sql statement be different? Thank you so much for working through this. I am just trying to understand.

TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE))
Based on your default NLS_DATE_FORMAT you are probably losing the time in that conversion.
If the data type of the column in the database is TIMESTAMP, then use SYSTIMESTAMP.
If the data type of the column in the table is DATE, then use SYSDATE.
