Assuming you have your date in @date variable (otherwise replace with your date column name):

sql Code:

SELECT DATENAME(weekday, @date) + ', ' 
     + DATENAME(month,   @date) + ' ' 
     + DATENAME(day,     @date) + ', ' 
     + DATENAME(year,    @date) + ' '

Note that we did that because none of the CONVERT options satisfy your need. If you can be content with one of these predefined formats, then you should prefer CONVERT.

it should be like thi s??

DECLARE @VariableName datetime

set @VariableName = SELECT DISTINCT DATEADD(day, 0, DATEDIFF(day, 0, starttime)) as date FROM table

this giving me error ..

Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'SELECT'.

sql Code:

DECLARE @date DATETIME
SELECT DISTINCT @date = DATEADD(day, 0, DATEDIFF(day, 0, starttime)) FROM table1 
SELECT DATENAME(weekday, @date) + ', ' 
     + DATENAME(month, @date) + ' ' 
     + DATENAME(day, @date) + ', ' 
     + DATENAME(year, @date) + ' '
