# setSendTimeAsDatetime Method (SQLServerDataSource)
[!INCLUDE[Driver_JDBC_Download](../../../includes/driver_jdbc_download.md)]

  This method was added in [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../../includes/ssnoversion_md.md)] JDBC Driver 3.0.  
  
 Modifies the setting of the **sendTimeAsDatetime** connection property.

```  
  
public void setSendTimeAsDatetime(boolean sendTimeAsDateTime)  
```  
  
#### Parameters  
 *sendTimeAsDateTime*  
  
 A Boolean value. When true, causes java.sql.Time values to be sent to the server as [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../../includes/ssnoversion_md.md)] **datetime** types. When false, causes java.sql.Time values to be sent to the server as [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../../includes/ssnoversion_md.md)] **time** types.
