now I\'d like to execute a query to select al

Answer 1

I know the answer am about to post is long overdue but it can help someone who may experience the same problem.

For my case I used:

SELECT * 
FROM tablename 
WHERE dateCol >= date("2017-11-01") 
AND dateCol < date("2017-11-01") + INTERVAL 1 DAY;

Its faster than using DATE() function.

If you are using a stored procedure, you could pass in the date as a string and supply it as an argument in place of ("2017-11-01")
