convert adDBtimeStamp to datetime

Hello,
I use a SQL Server with ODBC driver and >NET C#.
I want to convert a date field with adDBtimeStamp format to a DATETIME
format, but no solution could be found till now.
My query is as follows:
SELECT received_at as EXPR1
FROM TTable
WHERE datepart(w(datetime(received_at)))>10
Has anybody any solution for conversion?
*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.examnotes.net ***What is the SQL datatype of "received_at" and what are you attepting to
do with it? adDBtimeStamp maps to a DATETIME type in SQL Server so no
conversion should be necessary. However your example code isn't valid
in SQL Server - there is no WEEK or DATETIME function and your syntax
for DATEPART is wrong.
Maybe the following was what you intended, assuming you are in fact
dealing with a DATETIME column:
SELECT received_at AS expr1
FROM TTable
WHERE DATEPART(WEEK,received_at)>10 ;

It seems that no conversion is made and no explicit conversion could be
applied.
for the sequence:
SELECT received_at AS expr1
FROM TTable
WHERE DATEPART(WEEK,received_at)>10
the outcome is:

If the adDBtimeStamp values are seen as strings of the
form 'yyyymmddhhmmss', try this:
declare @.t table (
adDBtimeStamp char(14)
)
insert into @.t values ('20051012171534')
select
convert(datetime,
substring(adDBtimeStamp,1,8) + space(1) +
substring(adDBtimeStamp,9,2) + ':' +
substring(adDBtimeStamp,11,2) + ':' +
substring(adDBtimeStamp,12,2),
112) as SQLdt
from @.t
