How to query DATETIME field using only date in Microsoft SQL Server?

Question

I have a table TEST with a DATETIME field, like this:

ID NAME DATE
1 TESTING 2014-03-19 20:05:20.000
         


        

Answer 1

You can use this approach which truncates the time part:

select * from test
where convert(datetime,'03/19/2014',102) = DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, date), 0)
