Question

I have a table with a ‘timefrom’ column and a ‘timeto’ column that stores times in 24-hour format (“09:30”, “23:15”, etc).

How do I select rows where the current date (CURRENT_TIMESTAMP I would think) is between ‘timefrom’ and ‘timeto’?

Answer 1

SQL Server 2008+

WHERE
    CONVERT(time, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)
        BETWEEN
             CONVERT (time, timefrom + ':00', 108)
             AND
             CONVERT (time, timeto + ':00', 108)

You could of course fix your design to avoid conversion by using a time column
