SQL

SELECT CASE WHEN DATEPART( HH , GETDATE()) > 12 THEN CAST ( ( DATEPART( HH , GETDATE())  % 12 ) AS VARCHAR) + ' PM'
            ELSE  CAST ( ( DATEPART( HH , GETDATE())   ) AS VARCHAR) + 'AM'
        END AS HourParam

Solution 3

hi,
i think you can do something like that the query you are using gives you 05:00am then you can use substring to get your desired result.
