silly question (maybe) but why do you use the createODBCDate function,
what db are you using? if you are using mssql server then you can just
use dates as dates....

Subject: simple concept, not working


I'm looping over a span of dates and counting how many rental pieces are
out on each day.  Here's what my code looks like.

 

<Cfset startdate = createODBCDate('8/1/2003')>

<cfset enddate = createODBCDate('8/15/2003')>

 

<cfloop index="d" from="#startdate#" to="#enddate#" step="1">

 

            <cfquery name="countReserved" datasource="#datasource#">

                        Select Count (radios) as daycount

                                    from reservedTable

                                    where (StartDate <= #d#) 

                                    AND (ReturnDate >= #d#) 

                                    AND (radio_id = #form.inv_id#)

            </cfquery>

 

</cfloop>

 

I hardcoded the dates here for ease of explanation.  The problem is when
I run this code it returns the numbers for a datespan of  8/3/2003 -
8/17/2003.  It's seems to be adding on two days.  If I display the
output by placing this code within the loop

 

<cfoutput>

<tr>

            <td>#d#</td>    

            <td>#DateFormat(d, "mm/dd/yyyy")#</td>

            <td>#getreserved.daycount#</td>

</tr>

</cfoutput>

 

the formatted dates show the correct range but the counts are off by two
days.  It will show a date of 08/01/2003 and give me the count total for
08/03/2003.

 

What am I missing here?
