openquery: datum formatting

Question

I'm trying to retrieve data from Oracle by SQL server so I'm using openquery and I'm able to get date interval this way:

SELECT
  *
FROM OPENQUERY(DATABASE, 
     'SELECT * FROM ORACLE.TABLE
      WHERE CREATEDATE between {d ''2013-03-23''} and {d ''2013-03-27''} ')

how can I do the similar query, but date interval will be in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss format and stay with openquery???

Answer 1

You could do the conversion from date to string in the openquery statement:

select to_char(<datecol>, 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mi:ss') . . .

Alternatively, you culd use convert() in SQL Server and do it in the outer select.
