Best way to compare dates without time in SQL Server

Question

select * from sampleTable 
where CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),DateCreated,101) 
=     CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),CAST(\'Feb 15 2012  7:00:00:000PM\' AS DATETIME),101)

Answer 1

Simple Cast to Date will resolve the problem.

DECLARE @Date datetime = '04/01/2016 12:01:31'

DECLARE @Date2 datetime = '04/01/2016'

SELECT CAST(@Date as date)

SELECT CASE When (CAST(@Date as date) = CAST(@Date2 as date)) Then 1 Else 0 End
