below is the respective table data:

BookingID   BookingDate    JourneyDate   CustomerName   TelephoneNo  Address
5            01-08-2012     01-08-2012         roshan         78889     hjgj    

the above query listed returns 0 results even though data exist for 01/08/2012 journey date.

Can anyone please help me out.

Answer 1

Unless you are working in a US locale, it is best to use a year, month, day format for dates:

SELECT *
FROM BookingMaster where JourneyDate = #2012/08/01#;

Answer 2

try this..

SELECT * FROM BookingMaster where (JourneyDate >= #01/08/2012#) and (JourneyDate < #01/09/2012#);
