hi,
you should use DateDiff method for your purpose.
for eg.
SELECT DATEDIFF(DAY, GETDATE(), GETDATE() + 1) AS DayDiff
SELECT DATEDIFF(MINUTE, GETDATE(), GETDATE() + 1) AS MinuteDiff
SELECT DATEDIFF(SECOND, GETDATE(), GETDATE() + 1) AS SecondDiff
SELECT DATEDIFF(WEEK, GETDATE(), GETDATE() + 1) AS WeekDiff
SELECT DATEDIFF(HOUR, GETDATE(), GETDATE() + 1) AS HourDiff
and about how to convert to date time visit -
SQL Server Functions that helps to convert date and time values to and from string literals and other date and time formats.[
