I am using PGSQL 8.2.3 on Windows XP. I have a table called "StudentFeesPayment" with columns "ReceiptNo" and "ReceiptMonthYear". The column, "ReceiptMonthYear" stores date in the format "yyyy-mm-dd". I have to find the max(ReceiptNo) where Month of (ReceiptMonthYear)=4. Or whatever month I give.
I tried: Select max(ReceiptNo) from StudentFeesPayment where Extract(Month('ReceiptMonthYear'))=4; But it is not working. How to do it? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Retrieve-month-from-date-in-SQl-query-tf3602302.html#a10063035 Sent from the PostgreSQL - sql mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
