hey guys..
this returns result

select id, TRANSACTIONNUMBER, STORECODE, TXNPROCDATE from POS2SAP_Staging.dbo.TXNHEADER
where TXNPROCDATE = '2011-10-04 22:29:29.217'

however..
i only want to enter in '2011-10-04' and that returns no results
Eg.
select id, TRANSACTIONNUMBER, STORECODE, TXNPROCDATE from POS2SAP_Staging.dbo.TXNHEADER
where TXNPROCDATE = '2011-10-04'

the query above works! and returns results

i have tried
where TXNPROCDATE like '2011-10-04' and also tried
where TXNPROCDATE like '2011-10-04%'

and both returned no results..
any ideas?

as the TXNPROCDATE column contains date & time, you will need to do this


where TXNPROCDATE >= '2011-10-04'
and   TXNPROCDATE <  dateadd(day, 1, '2011-10-04')
