I have this code in a stored procedure:
d01072016 = case when '07-01-2016' between pp.committedstart and pp.committedend then 'y'
when '07-01-2016' < pp.committedstart then 's'
when '07-01-2016' > pp.committedend then 'g' end
based on the date it updates a particular column.
Now I want to compare only date and month so that it becomes year independent.
The date format in SQL Server is mm-dd-yyyy and the table column name is like dd-mm-yyyy but I can always this table column name to match to mm-dd-yyyy.
Please help.

I have a ssrs report that has a date/time parameter that allows the user to select the date when running report. how to I get it to exclude the time part of the date field.
currently the field in the db is a date/time field so when I run query
select count(*) from table where date <= #dateparameter
it is not including records where the time part of field is greater than 00.00.00
how can I ignore the time part so all records are returned for that date
The simplest (and probably best performance) solution would be to add a day to the date passed by the user amd change the <= to <:
select count(*) from table where date < DATEADD(DAY, 1, #dateparameter)
I have a table which has list of some events with dates. I am trying to write a stored procedure that will return only the upcoming events.
I have written the following query in the stored procedure:
SELECT *
FROM Events
WHERE tDate >= (select CAST(GETDATE() as DATE))
But this is not returning correct result. This is also showing results that have dates less than current date. How to write a query that will return all the events that have date equal or greater than today's date.
Edit: Dates that have been entered on the table have the format yyyy/dd/mm and getdate() returns date in the format yyyy/mm/dd. I think this is causing the problem. Dates that have been entered into the table has been taken using jquery date picker. Any solution to this problem?
Not sure why you have an additional select
SELECT *
FROM Events
WHERE tDate >= CAST(GETDATE() as DATE)
your DATE data is incorrectly stored within Sql Server. When your application passes the string '2015-09-04' and you save that your date column, it is saved as 4th Sept 2015 and not 9th April 2015. Hence your query returns such rows as they are greater than GETDATE().
Example
DECLARE #D VARCHAR(10) = '2015-09-04'
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),CONVERT(DATE,#D),109)
you need to fix your data and then use a CONVERT with style when saving dates in your table from application, using something like this. CONVERT(DATE, '20150409',112)
DECLARE #D VARCHAR(10) = '20150409'
SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),CONVERT(DATE,#D,112),109)

In my data base , i was stored one student data in the following date format is 07-03-2013(dd-mm-yyyy). For example the start date greater than the end date ,no row return in the results.
For Ex.
select student_name from general_details where join_date between '11-02-2013' and '08-03-2013'
it returns 0
if start date less than the end date
select student_name from general_details where join_date between '01-02-2013' and '08-03-2013'
it returns row value 1;
Please suggest ,thanks in advance
The dates are compared alphabetically and not as datetime stamps.
If you can influence how the dates are stored, use a format such as ISO-8601 yyyy-MM-dd or unix epoc timestamps to make the comparisons work.
If you cannot influence the data, you can convert the values in SQL by picking up the components with substr() and concatenating together with ||, like this:
substr(join_date,7,4) || substr(join_date,4,2) || substr(join_date,1,2)
I am pretty new to SQL and hope someone here can help me with the following:
I have a table in SQL Server with one column storing dates and I have a simple stored procedure to select data from this table.
Currently it fetches the date including hours and minutes.
How can I achieve that it fetches the date in format yyyy-mm-dd (without the hours and minutes) ?
My column is called "logDate" and my table is called "logTable".
Thanks for any help with this, Tim
If you only want to store the date, convert the column to a date type, not a datetime.
If you want to keep the date and time in the data, but just display the date
select convert(date, logDate) from logTable
If you want to return the date as a string, use convert
select convert(varchar(10), logDate, 120) from logTable
Hi all i want to take record from table named Tblbatch where batch starting date should be from augest 2007 to july 2010...
I want to fetch such records which came in between this two dates
Select * from Tblbatch where startDate between '01-08-2007' and '31-07-2010'
provided you have a datetime column "startDate"
Note : that using between includes both the dates specified.
If you want to avoid the dates either change the boundary dates to + - 1 respectively or use > and < conditions
