DECLARE @Now DATETIME2(7) = SYSDATETIME();
SELECT
[Datetime2(1)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(1))),
[Datetime2(2)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(2))),
[Datetime2(3)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(3))),
[Datetime2(4)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(4))),
[Datetime2(5)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(5))),
[Datetime2(6)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(6))),
[Datetime2(7)] = DATEPART(MILLISECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(7)))
Executing that returns the following example values:
300 260 265 264 264 264 264
How can I get more precision?
Never mind, the function returns an int, which is not what I expected. I'm supposed to use NANOSECOND, and divide it.
DECLARE @Now DATETIME2(7) = SYSDATETIME();
SELECT
[Datetime2(1)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(1)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(2)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(2)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(3)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(3)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(4)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(4)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(5)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(5)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(6)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(6)))/1000000.0,
[Datetime2(7)] = DATEPART(NANOSECOND,CAST(@Now AS DATETIME2(7)))/1000000.0
