I will have a table with datetime column

Let’s name it TmStamp with data 01/01/2001 01:00:PM

there is another date column, Let’s name it RegDate with data 01/01/2001

I want to select data with that date.

So I write

SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE RegDate>=#01/01/2001# and RegDate<=#01/01/2001#

I get data for 01/01/2001.

HOWEVER,

SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE TmStamp >=#01/01/2001# and TmStamp <=#01/01/2001#

I get nothing

I will get data for 01/01/2001 only if I do like this..

SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE TmStamp >=#01/01/2001# and TmStamp <=#02/01/2001#

Dates are in DD/MM/YYYY format.

Any idea why is that?

    In MS Access a Date/Time field always has a Time component. The RegData field has time of 00:00:00 so Access is not displaying it to you and the following query will work

    SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE RegDate>=#01/01/2001# and RegDate<=#01/01/2001#

    You first TmStamp query is actually running this

    SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE TmStamp >=#01/01/2001 00:00:00# and TmStamp <=#01/01/2001 00:00:00#

    As the TmStamp field has times it will not show any results.

    What you need to do for Date/Time fields with a time other than 00:00:00 is run this query

    SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE TmStamp >=#01/01/2001# and TmStamp <#02/01/2001#
