How to select rows for a specific date, ignoring time in SQL Server

Given a table with a datetime column, how do I query for rows where the date matches the value I specify but ignores the time portion?

For example, select * from 开发者_JAVA百科sales where salesDate = '11/11/2010'

For this query we don't care about the time. Other queries require the time component so we can't store only the date component.

Thanks!

You can remove the time component when comparing:

SELECT * 
FROM sales 
WHERE CONVERT(DATETIME, FLOOR(CONVERT(FLOAT, salesDate))) = '11/11/2010'

Another approach is to change the select to cover all the time between the start and end of the date:

SELECT * 
FROM sales 
-- WHERE salesDate BETWEEN '11/11/2010 00:00:00.00' AND '11/11/2010 23:59:59.999'
WHERE salesDate BETWEEN '2020-05-18T00:00:00.00' AND '2020-05-18T23:59:59.999'

I know it's been a while on this question, but I was just looking for the same answer and found this seems to be the simplest solution:

select * from sales where datediff(dd, salesDate, '20101111') = 0

I actually use it more to find things within the last day or two, so my version looks like this:

select * from sales where datediff(dd, salesDate, getdate()) = 0

And by changing the 0 for today to a 1 I get yesterday's transactions, 2 is the day before that, and so on. And if you want everything for the last week, just change the equals to a less-than-or-equal-to:

select * from sales where datediff(dd, salesDate, getdate()) <= 7

Try this:

SELECT * FROM sales WHERE CAST(salesDate AS date) = '2010-10-10'

---

select * from sales where salesDate between '11/11/2010' and '12/11/2010' --if using dd/mm/yyyy

The more correct way to do it:

DECLARE @myDate datetime
SET @myDate = '11/11/2010'
select * from sales where salesDate>=@myDate and salesDate<dateadd(dd,1,@myDate)

If only the date is specified, it means total midnight. If you want to make sure intervals don't overlap, switch the between with a pair of >= and <

you can do it within one single statement, but it's just that the value is used twice.

I know this is an old topic, but I managed to do it in this simple way:

select count(*) from `tablename`
where date(`datecolumn`) = '2021-02-17';

Something like this:

select 
  * 
from sales 
where salesDate >= '11/11/2010' 
  AND salesDate < (Convert(datetime, '11/11/2010') + 1)

---

select 
  * 
from sales 
where 
  dateadd(dd, datediff(dd, 0, salesDate), 0) = '11/11/2010'

---

This worked for me:

SELECT *
FROM tableName
WHERE date LIKE '%2022-11-19%'

Try this:

true
select cast(salesDate as date) [date] from sales where salesDate = '2010/11/11'
false
select cast(salesDate as date) [date] from sales where salesDate = '11/11/2010'
