Valid Date Range for SQL Server DateTime

امير مير — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 11:19:00 GMT

Values for datetime data types earlier than January 1, 1753 are not permitted in SQL Server. SQL Server rejects all values that do not fall within the range from 1753 to 9999.

Another SQL Server data type, smalldatetime, stores dates and times of day with less precision than datetime datatype. Valid date range for this data type is from January 1, 1900 through June 6, 2079.
