Question : convert Date() to CCYYMMDD format in SQL

I have to convert Date() to CCYYMMDD format using MSSQL. i.e. if today's date yields 01/12/2001 CC date should converted respectively. I have a formula that works in MS Access in a module:
Public Function FormatCCDate(inputdate As Date)
'reformats a date in mm/dd/yyyy format to cyymmdd
Dim lngyear As Long
Dim lngday As Long
Dim lngmonth As Long
lngyear = DatePart("yyyy", inputdate)
lngyear = lngyear - 1900
lngday = DatePart("d", inputdate)
lngmonth = DatePart("m", inputdate)
FormatCCDate = (lngyear * 10000) + (lngmonth * 100) + (lngday)
End Function
This works fine in Access within a query, but I would like to do this in MS SQL 2000.
