That's why I was isolating the first two chars which signify the month.

Subject: RE: Query date
you need to compare a date in your database to a cf generated date?
<cfquery name="report" datasource="wweb_status_internal">
<!--- Select top 1 * lists first record--->
Select *
>From maintenance_report
Where id = id and maint_report_date = '#dateFormat(Now(),'mm')#'
Order by id desc
</cfquery>
assuming the date field is maint_report_date.
not sure about the data layout, so its hard to comment, but you should
get the picture from this...if this is correct, you need to have dates
in your database set up differently.
but you could also do a
where id = id and maint_report_date between '' and ''
where you fill '' and '' with a begin and end date...dont fool around
with stripping the first two chars. off...thats kludgy..

Subject: Query date
I'm doing a comparison of the current date with the date in a table:
<cfquery name="report" datasource="wweb_status_internal">
<!--- Select top 1 * lists first record--->
Select *
>From maintenance_report
Where id = id and "#left(maint_report_date,2)#" = "#dateFormat(Now(),
"MM")#"
Order by id desc
</cfquery>
I'm isolating the first two chars of the date (i.e. 04/05/2004) lets say
"04" and comparing to the month value in the where statement.
I'm getting an: "Cannot use empty object or column names. Use a single
space if necessary" error. I know my Where comparison on the date is
wrong. Any ideas please?
Thanx...as always...especially today.
