Question

I am trying tomake a select join between two specific dates in the database

This I feelis on the right path but is incorrect

How can I get this to work

SELECT --RTRIM(C.CustomerFirstName) + ' ' + LTRIM(C.CustomerLastName) as CustomerFullName,
       ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY CP.ActionDate) AS RowNumber,
       C.CustomerFirstName,
       C.CustomerLastName,
       C.CustomerCompany,
       C.CustomerPosition,
       C.CustomerCountry,
       C.CustomerProvince,
       C.CustomerContact,
       CP.ActionDate,
       CP.ProductCode,
       CP.CustomerEmail
FROM   tblCustomers C
       JOIN tblCustomerProducts CP
            ON  C.CustomerEmail = CP.CustomerEmail


     ORDER BY ActionDate DESC
WHERE CP.ActionDate BETWEEN '1/17/2013' AND '19/12/2012'

Answer 1

Instead of

WHERE CP.ActionDate BETWEEN '1/17/2013' AND '19/12/2012`

Try this:

WHERE CP.ActionDate BETWEEN '19/12/2012' AND '1/17/2013'

Note that: This is because the BETWEEN predicate in SQL Server is Asymmetric, this means that value1 BETWEEN value2 AND value3 is the same as Value1 >= Value2 AND Value1 <= Value3, so the value value2 that before the AND must be less than or equal to the value3.
