I guess this works cause it's querying a date field with a date.
Interestingly, it previously had {currentDate()-7}. Maybe it was
currDate(). I'm updating it.
So now it's doing the query, it's giving me "not a valid month", but
It seems to me that we're adding a date here (subtracting really).
Looks like this is close.
Oh wait, I did: WHERE dateAdded < #dateAdd("d",-7,Now())#
This seems to have worked. I removed the dateFormat because as
suggested, it seemed unnecessary. I also removed the quotes. I
don't have alot of data to test from but it seems ok.
>WHERE dateAdded >= DATEADD('d',-7,getDate())
well this is ORACLE, but the function looked the same there, though I
didn't look up getDate();
This gave me the error, " invalid column name", though I don't know
why as dateAdded is the right column. It specifies the top line of
the query with the error.
>WHERE dateAdded >= #createODBCDate(dateAdd('d', -7, now())#
error:
Invalid CFML construct found on line 34 at column 64. (the WHERE line)
ColdFusion was looking at the following text:
#
>assuming (yeah, yeah, i know) that dateAdded is a date/time datatype,
>why the dateFormat() function?
good point.
>WHERE dateAdded > <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp"
>value="#DateAdd("d",-7,Now())#">
and would this change since it's ORACLE?
sorry folks, I should have mentioned that it was ORACLE.
>I'm doing a query for all records that are newer than 7 days.
whew.
