RE: getting query results based on day (solution found)
I found a solution. Instead of using CreateODBCDateTime (Now()) when I create the record I use CreateODBCDate (Now(). Then use CreateODBCDate (Now()) in my query page. Thanks for the help everyone. Dominic -Original Message- From: Dominic J. Doucet-Lorang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 2:14 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: getting query results based on day I am trying to pull information from a database table based upon the date and a couple of other items. I have tried to use a query wher I comparied the date column in the table with now() but it gets no results. the query looks like this: select distinct forsikring.*,kunde.* from forsikring, kunde where forsikring.refnr = #refnr2# AND forsikring.id = kunde.id and dos = Now() It will get results if I remove the dos = Now() It needs to just get the records if the date is today also.

RE: getting query results based on day
dos is a date/time. I only need to compare the date part. -Original Message- From: David Shadovitz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 3:03 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: getting query results based on day Dominic, There are two issues here: First, is "dos" a date, or a date/time? Now() is a date/time, so it's not likely you'll match any entries down to the current time. If dos is just a date, you'd need to manipulate Now() to get the date part of it. If dos includes the time, you'll need to test on the difference between dos and Now(). Second, you need to work in ODBC dates/times. Can you show us how you insert dos? -David On Wed, 18 Oct 2000 14:13:38 +0200 "Dominic J.

RE: getting query results based on day
this is the code I used to create the record. Dominic J.

RE: getting query results based on day
Dominic, I'd check the datatypes are consistant and then check for your dB if you need to cast or convert the now() function Regards Stew Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
