ORA-01843 not a valid month- Comparing Dates

Question

I have a problem when try to select data from a table filtering by date.

For example:

SELECT * FROM MYTABLE WHERE MYTABLE.DATEIN = \'23         


        

Answer 1

If the source date contains minutes and seconds part, your date comparison will fail. you need to convert source date to the required format using to_char and the target date also.
