The easy way is to get sql server 2008.
The hard way is to search about it because there are tons of threads about this.
But wait a moment and someone will post a "workaround"

in SQL 2005, the best you can do is


declare @datetime datetime

select	@datetime	= '2010-03-07 17:18:41.473'

select	date_only = dateadd(day, datediff(day, 0, @datetime), 0),
	time_only = @datetime - dateadd(day, datediff(day, 0, @datetime), 0)
