I currently have the following SQL statement in a query that I am running as a View:

OPENDATETIME as TicketOpenDateTime,

(CAST(DATEPART(mm,OPENDATETIME) as VARCHAR)+'/'+
CAST(DATEPART(dd,OPENDATETIME) as VARCHAR)+'/'+
CAST(DATEPART(yyyy,OPENDATETIME)as VARCHAR)) AS TicketOpenDate,

(CAST(DATEPART(hh,OPENDATETIME) as VARCHAR)+':'+
CAST(DATEPART(mi,OPENDATETIME) as VARCHAR)) AS TicketOpenTime,

CLOSEDATETIME as TicketCloseDateTime,

(CASE CLOSEDATETIME
WHEN '1899-12-30' THEN NULL
ELSE
(CAST(DATEPART(mm,CLOSEDATETIME) as VARCHAR)+'/'+
CAST(DATEPART(dd,CLOSEDATETIME) as VARCHAR)+'/'+
CAST(DATEPART(yyyy,CLOSEDATETIME)as VARCHAR)) END) AS TicketCloseDate,


The query is then viewed in Excel 2007 and I am simply trying to pull the Date/Time data without needing the above code.

So you want to connect Excel to SQL Server and just bring back these datetime columns, right? It can be done a few different ways. You can use Microsoft Query - part of Excel but it may not be installed - or you can connect to "Other Data Sources".
