Syntax

DAY ( date )  

Arguments

date
An expression that resolves to one of the following data types:

  • date
  • datetime
  • datetimeoffset
  • datetime2
  • smalldatetime
  • time

For date, DAY will accept a column expression, expression, string literal, or user-defined variable.

Return Type

int

Return Value

DAY returns the same value as DATEPART (day, date).

If date contains only a time part, DAY will return 1 - the base day.

Examples

This statement returns 30 - the number of the day itself.

SELECT DAY('2015-04-30 01:01:01.1234567');  

This statement returns 1900, 1, 1. The date argument has a number value of 0. [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] interprets 0 as January 1, 1900.

SELECT YEAR(0), MONTH(0), DAY(0);
