Answer 1

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.DTtoUnixTS 
( 
    @dt DATETIME 
) 
RETURNS BIGINT 
AS 
BEGIN 
    DECLARE @diff BIGINT 
    IF @dt >= '20380119' 
    BEGIN 
        SET @diff = CONVERT(BIGINT, DATEDIFF(S, '19700101', '20380119')) 
            + CONVERT(BIGINT, DATEDIFF(S, '20380119', @dt)) 
    END 
    ELSE 
        SET @diff = DATEDIFF(S, '19700101', @dt) 
    RETURN @diff 
END

-- SQL Server
SELECT DATEDIFF(s, '1970-01-01 00:00:00', DateField)

-- MySQL
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(DateField);
