DateTime Format problem

In SQL query I have to find records which occour between two dates. I created Select query with two parameters @.date1 and @.date2 in clasue WHERE. But problem is with date format of my parameters. This format is to long. I dont wont to use time part of these parameters only date part is needed. When I put two identical dates my query doesn't find any data because both dates are eg. 2007-05-22 00:00:00. But I need data for all this day. How to correct this problem? Regards Pawel.

Use the Convert Function to convert it to a small date it will trim the time part

Where Convert(Varchar(10),@.Date1) = Convert(Varchar(10),@.Date2) ... Also you can use the third parameter in the Convert Function to get a specific format of dates i.e dd/mm/yyyy or yyyy/mm/dd etc. For a complete list

If the goal is to retrieve data for a single day, the method I prefer is lower inclusion, upper exclusion. Let me explain:

declare @.dtdatetime, @.startDatedatetime, @.endDatedatetime-- assume this is the dateset @.dt ='2007-01-02 12:34:56'select-- if only a date portion is passed into the sproc -- you won't need to remove the time portion @.startDate =convert(char(10), @.dt, 120) , @.endDate =dateadd(day, 1, @.startDate)select a.*-- use column list here!from tbl awhere-- inclusive of the lower limit a.DateColumn >= @.startDate-- exclusive of the upper limitand a.DateColumn < @.endDate
