Question

I have table in my SQL Server database called OrderDetail which stores the order data. I have a column in this table called OrderDate which stores the date and time information about the orders.

I want to retrieve all those orders from OrderDetail table which were created today.

My scenario is that I want to make a button which will click by admin at night to see that how many orders are done today?

Any help regard to this will be appreciated.

Answer 1

try something like this:

SELECT A.OrderID, ...
FROM OrderDetail as 'A' INNER JOIN OrderDate as 'B' ON 
        A.OrderID = B.OrderID
WHERE B.DateOfOrder BETWEEN '5/20/2011 00:00:00' AND '5/20/2011 23:59:59'

I assumed that you have ID in your OrderDetail and that ID is the same in the OrderDate table.
