use timestamps. Timestamps are more versatile that varchars since you
can
do math calculations with them. Depending on your gui layout you may
also
be better off storing a start time and a duration rather than a start
and
end time.
Definitely use Timestamps - you'll thank yourself later when you write
the
queries!

Hi everyone.
I am looking for the best way and data type (SQL) to store a employees
schedule.
I have a form in which they enter a start time and an end time. Should
I
store these as Timestamps in SQL Server or use varchar...
And what about AM and PM? Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Mike
