Does the column need to be loaded with UTC? Why not just insert the column
with localtime already applied? It would make the SELECT you require
trivial:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE datefield = '2005-12-23'.

| Subject: [sqlite] 2nd question about 'localtime'
|
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Hi All,
I have a second question re: dates in SQLite and 'localtime'.
I have a table with a DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP field.
I'm trying to retrieve a recordset of records that have been added to
that table today (but, of course, because the field stores UTC, the
value for the majority of those records are datetime values for yesterday).
In SQLSERVER2K I'm used to retrieving records for a given day by using
something like:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE datefield BETWEEN '2005-12-23' AND '2005-12-23';
I've experimented with a number of different SQL statements in SQLite to
achieve the same result, but nothing (so far) returns records I added
with a local date of today (which is '2005-12-23').
Can anyone help me understand how to achieve this in SQLite?
Many thanks and much warmth,
Murray
