I think I got it now:

        'year') <
                julianday('2002-12-22')))

seems to  work.


This is either clever or foolhardy depending upon how you look at it.

It works only because sqlite stops at the first illegal character (the -) when converting a string to an integer as it tries to subtract the two date stings.

(date('now') - '2002-12-22')

becomes

'2006-12-22' - '2002-12-22'

which is converted to

2006 - 2002

without any warning or error and produces the correct result 4

Other than that it uses the reverse logic of my case statement. Get the difference of the years and subtract 1 or 0 depending upon the actual date.
