Get row where datetime column = today - SQL server noob

Question

In sql 2005, instead of building a query from dateparts year, month and date,

is there an more succinct way of writing the where clause?

Answer 1

Not good performance, but a solution:

SELECT * 
FROM tblDate
WHERE CONVERT(VARCHAR, date, 112) = CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 112);

If it is a common query a computed column should be added with only year-month-day content.
