The tutorial exercise below shows how to set year, month, day, hour, minute and second to any give DATETIME value:
-- set parts to a DATETIME value DECLARE @date_of_birth DATETIME; SET @date_of_birth = GETDATE(); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(YEAR, 1987-DATEPART(YEAR,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(MONTH, 05-DATEPART(MONTH,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(DAY, 19-DATEPART(DAY,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(HOUR, 12-DATEPART(HOUR,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(MINUTE, 00-DATEPART(MINUTE,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SET @date_of_birth = DATEADD(SECOND, 00-DATEPART(SECOND,@date_of_birth), @date_of_birth); SELECT 'You were born on ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(40),@date_of_birth,107) + ', at ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(40),@date_of_birth,108); GO You were born on May 19, 1987, at 12:00:00
