SQL Server: Get data for only the past year

Question

I am writing a query in which I have to get the data for only the last year. What is the best way to do this?

SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE date > \'8/27/2007         


        

Answer 1

declare @iMonth int
declare @sYear varchar(4)
declare @sMonth varchar(2)
set @iMonth = 0
while @iMonth > -12
begin
    set @sYear = year(DATEADD(month,@iMonth,GETDATE()))
    set @sMonth = right('0'+cast(month(DATEADD(month,@iMonth,GETDATE())) as varchar(2)),2)
    select @sYear + @sMonth
    set @iMonth = @iMonth - 1
end
