    select * from mytable where year(Columnx) = 2010

    Regarding index usage (answering Simon’s comment):

    if you have an index on Columnx, SQLServer WON’T use it if you use the function “year” (or any other function).

    There are two possible solutions for it, one is doing the search by interval like Columnx>=’01012010′ and Columnx<=’31122010′ and another one is to create a calculated column with the year(Columnx) expression, index it, and then do the filter on this new column
