Question

Suppose I have the following student table:

id | name | datecreated
------------------------
1  | john | 5/28/2011
2  | peter| 3/15/2011
3  | luke | 5/19/2011

What would be my Sql statement if I want to select all students created in the month of May and in the year of 2011, regardless of date.

I am using SQLite.

Answer 1

SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE strftime('%Y', datecreated) = '2011' 
                          AND strftime('%m', datecreated) = '5';
