Hi, I inherited a db that has a varchar(30) column that holds a date/time
stamp in the form of YYYYMMDDHHmmss (ex: 20030124093952)

Well I want to select a range based on the first 8 characters(YYYYMMDD).

I currently select a single day by

select * from orderheader where orderid like '$date' ;

The  $date variable equals 20030124%

What can I do to get this range selection query to work?

Thanks,
Chuck Barnett
