Question

Using SQL Server 2005 I have a field that contains a datetime value.

What I am trying to do is create 2 queries:

1. Compare to see if stored datetime is of the same month+year as current date
2. Compare to see if stored datetime is of the same year as current date

There is probably a simple solution but I keep hitting brick walls using various samples I can find, any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Compare the parts of the date:

WHERE YEAR( columnName ) = YEAR( getDate() )
