how to query in sqlite for different date format

Question

I am using sqlite for local database in mobile and in my database, I have date field with column name RN_CREATE_DATE. My RN_CREATE_DATE

Answer 1

strftime('%Y', '2012-07-28 12:04:34') returns 2012, as:

sqlite> select strftime('%Y', '2012-07-28 12:04:34');
2012

but the RN_CREATE_DATE is of type datetime, which expect a full datetime like '2012-07-28 12:04:34'. what you want might be simply:

SELECT  RN_CREATE_DATE 
FROM DISPOSITION 
WHERE  RN_CREATE_DATE='2012-07-28 12:04:34'
