Get a list of dates between two dates using a function

Question

My question is similar to this MySQL question, but intended for SQL Server:

Is there a function or a query that will return a list of days between two dates? For exa

Answer 1

I'm an oracle guy, but I believe MS SQL Server has support for the connect by clause:

select  sysdate + level
from    dual
connect by level <= 10 ;

The output is:

SYSDATE+LEVEL
05-SEP-09
06-SEP-09
07-SEP-09
08-SEP-09
09-SEP-09
10-SEP-09
11-SEP-09
12-SEP-09
13-SEP-09
14-SEP-09

Dual is just a 'dummy' table that comes with oracle (it contains 1 row and the word 'dummy' as the value of the single column).
