Question

I am querying from database:

select * from database where id = 12345

and i get a couple of days where it is equal to
3/4/2010 9:16:59 AM

but if i add
and date = to_date(’03/04/2010′,’DD/MM/YYYY’)

giving me

select * from database where id = 12345
and date = to_date('03/04/2010','DD/MM/YYYY') 

I comeback with completely nothing.

Any pointers?
btw, I know that there is a time on there, but I don’t know how to compare just based on the day!!!

Answer 1

 WHERE id = 12345
   AND date >= TO_DATE('03/04/2010', 'DD/MM/YYYY')
   AND date <  TO_DATE('03/04/2010', 'DD/MM/YYYY') + INTERVAL '1' DAY
