Question

I am using SQLite in Android to store a timeStamp in this format: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
I would like to compare just the time of the timestamp with some values eg. HOUR(timestamp)>12 etc. , but HOUR is not a legal function in SQLite. I have changed it as described below and I have something like this: " where "+" strftime('%H','"+timeStamp+"')>"+time1+" AND strftime('%H','"+timeStamp+"')<'"+time2; where time1 and time2 are integer between 0-23. I have 7 entries in the table so 7 timestamps. however i get 0 results back…

You can try

SELECT strftime('%H', 'now');

or

SELECT strftime('%H', columnName);

the output will be 0 to 24
