Display today's date

primo_larry

Hi all, I just want to display the current date on a modern dashboard.

Not sure which is the best widget to use?? a table will do and I don't know what SWSQL will give me what i want. Any help would be appreciated.

-- I'm not sure if you actually *need* the FROM line
SELECT GETDATE() AS [Current Date]
FROM Orion.Engines

The tricky bit here is making sure (hoping) the browser automatically shows the proper date (according to your client's time zone settings).

Also, since you'll be displaying it from a table, you'll probably want to put in a automatic refresh on the table, so the time is at least slightly current.

You could also do it in the stupidest way possible...as a bunch of KPI blocks.
