My way of doing it is   right  0  right datepart month  StartDate   2  2    The reason for the internal  right  function is to prevent SQL from doing it as math add - which will leave us with one digit again

there are different ways of doing it  Using RTRIM and specifing the range   like SELECT RIGHT  0    RTRIM MONTH  12-31-2012     2      Using Substring to just extract the month part after converting the date into text  like SELECT SUBSTRING CONVERT nvarchar 6  getdate    112  5 2   see Fiddle There may be other ways to get this

Pinal Dave has a nice article with some examples on how to add trailing 0s to SQL numbers    One way is using the RIGHT function  which would make the statement something like the following   SELECT RIGHT  00    CAST DATEPART mm   date  AS varchar 2    2

Function  FORMAT date  MM      will do the job with two digit

User · Answer

append 0 before it by checking if the value falls between 1 and 9 by first casting it to varchar  select case when DATEPART month  getdate    between 1 and 9  then  0  else    end   cast DATEPART month  getdate    as varchar 2

Another simple trick   SELECT CONVERT char 2   cast  2015-01-01  as datetime   101  -- month with 2 digits SELECT CONVERT char 6   cast  2015-01-01  as datetime   112  -- year  yyyy  and month  mm    Outputs   01 201501
