How to query DATETIME field using only date in Microsoft SQL Server?
Sql ServerDatetimeSql Server Problem Overview
I have a table TEST with a DATETIME
field, like this:
ID NAME DATE
1 TESTING 2014-03-19 20:05:20.000
What I need a query returning this row and every row with date 03/19/2014, no matter what the time is. I tried using
select * from test where date = '03/19/2014';
But it returns no rows. The only way to make it work that I found is to also provide the time portion of the date:
select * from test where date = '03/19/2014 20:03:02.000';
Sql Server Solutions
Solution 1 - Sql Server
use range, or DateDiff function
select * from test
where date between '03/19/2014' and '03/19/2014 23:59:59'
or
select * from test
where datediff(day, date, '03/19/2014') = 0
Other options are:
-
If you have control over the database schema, and you don't need the time data, take it out.
-
or, if you must keep it, add a computed column attribute that has the time portion of the date value stripped off...
Alter table Test Add DateOnly As DateAdd(day, datediff(day, 0, date), 0)
or, in more recent versions of SQL Server...
Alter table Test Add DateOnly As Cast(DateAdd(day, datediff(day, 0, date), 0) as Date)
then, you can write your query as simply:
select * from test
where DateOnly = '03/19/2014'
Solution 2 - Sql Server
Simple answer;
select * from test where cast ([date] as date) = '03/19/2014';
Solution 3 - Sql Server
I am using MySQL 5.6 and there is a DATE function to extract only the date part from date time. So the simple solution to the question is -
select * from test where DATE(date) = '2014-03-19';

Solution 4 - Sql Server
This works for me for MS SQL server:
select * from test
where
year(date) = 2015
and month(date) = 10
and day(date)= 28 ;
Solution 5 - Sql Server
select * from test
where date between '03/19/2014' and '03/19/2014 23:59:59'
This is a realy bad answer. For two reasons.
What happens with times like 23.59.59.700 etc. There are times larger than 23:59:59 and the next day.
The behaviour depends on the datatype. The query behaves differently for datetime/date/datetime2 types.
Testing with 23:59:59.999 makes it even worse because depending on the datetype you get different roundings.
select convert (varchar(40),convert(date , '2014-03-19 23:59:59.999'))
select convert (varchar(40),convert(datetime , '2014-03-19 23:59:59.999'))
select convert (varchar(40),convert(datetime2 , '2014-03-19 23:59:59.999'))
-- For date the value is 'chopped'. -- For datetime the value is rounded up to the next date. (Nearest value). -- For datetime2 the value is precise.
Solution 6 - Sql Server
use this
select * from TableName where DateTimeField > date() and DateTimeField < date() + 1
Solution 7 - Sql Server
Try this
select * from test where Convert(varchar, date,111)= '03/19/2014'
Solution 8 - Sql Server
you can try this
select * from test where DATEADD(dd, 0, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, date)) = '03/19/2014';
Solution 9 - Sql Server
There is a problem with dates and languages and the way to avoid it is asking for dates with this format YYYYMMDD.
This way below should be the fastest according to the link below. I checked in SQL Server 2012 and I agree with the link.
select * from test where date >= '20141903' AND date < DATEADD(DAY, 1, '20141903');
Solution 10 - Sql Server
You can use this approach which truncates the time part:
select * from test
where convert(datetime,'03/19/2014',102) = DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, date), 0)
Solution 11 - Sql Server
-- Reverse the date format
-- this false:
select * from test where date = '28/10/2015'
-- this true:
select * from test where date = '2015/10/28'
Solution 12 - Sql Server
Simply use this in your WHERE
clause.
The "SubmitDate" portion below is the column name, so insert your own.
This will return only the "Year" portion of the results, omitting the mins etc.
Where datepart(year, SubmitDate) = '2017'
Solution 13 - Sql Server
select *, cast ([col1] as date) <name of the column> from test where date = 'mm/dd/yyyy'
"col1" is name of the column with date and time
<name of the column> here you can change name as desired
Solution 14 - Sql Server
select *
from invoice
where TRUNC(created_date) <=TRUNC(to_date('04-MAR-18 15:00:00','dd-mon-yy hh24:mi:ss'));
Solution 15 - Sql Server
use trunc(column).
select * from test t where trunc(t.date) = TO_DATE('2018/06/08', 'YYYY/MM/DD')
Solution 16 - Sql Server
Test this query.
SELECT *,DATE(chat_reg_date) AS is_date,TIME(chat_reg_time) AS is_time FROM chat WHERE chat_inbox_key='$chat_key'
ORDER BY is_date DESC, is_time DESC
Solution 17 - Sql Server
select * from invoice where TRANS_DATE_D>= to_date ('20170831115959','YYYYMMDDHH24MISS')
and TRANS_DATE_D<= to_date ('20171031115959','YYYYMMDDHH24MISS');
Solution 18 - Sql Server
SELECT * FROM test where DATEPART(year,[TIMESTAMP]) = '2018' and DATEPART(day,[TIMESTAMP]) = '16' and DATEPART(month,[TIMESTAMP]) = '11'
