We use this a lot--SQL Server specific
SELECT dateadd (ss, YOUR_INTEGER_FIELD, '1970-01-01') from ....
This returns a date/time value with your default format: You can further add
date formatting commands to this statement to get it into "prettier" formats if
your default format needs to be changed.

1) Define a display only field of type date
2) Set value 01/01/1970 char in the newly created field
3) Define a result field of type date/time
4) (2) step + integer value = (3) step

Subject: Retrieving Date from SQL
Hi All,
Remedy data type "Date" is stored as an integer in the SQL Server database.
It is stored as the number of seconds from 1st Jan 1970. Now I am using a
SELECT query to read this value in a character (There is a requirement that I
cannot read this into a date field on Remedy). The value returned is an
integer. Is there a way through which I can convert this integer value into
date?
Environment:
ARS 6.3
SQL Server 2000.
