Hi, You can format dates using various built in functions in ssrs. Below are some examples. Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “M/d/yy”) - 2/11/08 Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “MM/dd/yyyy”) - 02/11/2008 Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “d-MMMM-yy”) - 11-December-08 Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “d-MMM-yyyy”) - 11-Dec-2008 Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “M/d/yyyy H:mm”) - 2/11/2008 13:50 Format(Fields!myDate.Value, “MMM-dd-yyyy”) - Feb-11-2008 Click the below link and see the Date functions section for more details. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157328.aspxMSBI Developer

Hi AswaniSahu, Thanks for your question and other partners’ replies. TDPN’s suggestion contains most types that using Format function to format a date in different forms, I will complement it with below link: http://praveenbattula.blogspot.com/2010/01/date-formatting-in-sql-server-reporting.html. Actually, there are serious functions relate to the date type, you can easily find them and their correspond examples in the expression dialog box, for example, 1. Right-click the textbox in one report table, select Expression, open the Expression dialog box. 2. In the Category list, expand Common Functions, select Date & Time. In the Item list, click CDate, the Description and Example of CDate being displayed on the right side. Hope it helps you. If there is anything unclear, please feel free to let me know. Thanks, Sharp Wang Please remember to mark the replies as answers if they help you and unmark them if they provide no help.
