DateTime values should be inserted as if they are strings surrounded by single quotes:

'20100301'

SQL Server allows for many accepted date formats and it should be the case that most development libraries provide a series of classes or functions to insert datetime values properly. However, if you are doing it manually, it is important to distinguish the date format using DateFormat and to use generalized format:

Set DateFormat MDY --indicates the general format is Month Day Year

Insert Table( DateTImeCol )
Values( '2011-03-12' )

By setting the dateformat, SQL Server now assumes that my format is YYYY-MM-DD instead of YYYY-DD-MM.

SET DATEFORMAT

SQL Server also recognizes a generic format that is always interpreted the same way: YYYYMMDD e.g. 20110312.

If you are asking how to insert the current date and time using T-SQL, then I would recommend using the keyword CURRENT_TIMESTAMP. For example:

Insert Table( DateTimeCol )
Values( CURRENT_TIMESTAMP )

DateTime values should be inserted as if they are strings surrounded by single quotes  20201231  but in many cases they need to be casted explicitly to datetime CAST N 20201231  AS DATETIME  to avoid bad execution plans with CONVERSION IMPLICIT warnings that affect negatively the performance  Hier is an example  CREATE TABLE dbo T D DATETIME   --wrong way INSERT INTO dbo T  D  VALUES   20201231      20201231     --better way INSERT INTO dbo T  D  VALUES  CAST N 20201231  AS DATETIME     CAST N 20201231  AS DATETIME

You will need to have a datetime column in a table   Then you can do an insert like the following to insert the current date   INSERT INTO MyTable  MyDate  Values  GetDate      If it is not today s date then you should be able to use a string and specify the date format   INSERT INTO MyTable  MyDate  Values  Convert DateTime  19820626  112   --6 26 1982   You do not always need to convert the string either  often you can just do something like   INSERT INTO MyTable  MyDate  Values   06 26 1982      And SQL Server will figure it out for you
