Hi to all,

I have a very simple question. Let's say that I have three records (id, date
from, date to):

1     2009-01-01     2009-08-31
2     2009-08-01     2009-08-10
3     2009-08-11     2009-08-31

Now I want to get records, "related" to a single month/year data (two
integers). For 2009/08 (int1 = 2009, int2 = 8) I should get all three
records, for 2009/05 only record 1, but for 2009/11 none of the records.

Is there any simple way to do this? A query would do :).

Thanks alot.
Lots of ways. The following springs to mind but I'm sure there are simpler ways (I'm assuming the date_from and date_to are data-type date and you are stuck with using int for year and month).

Use date_trunc to convert any date in a month to the first of the month and the following should work (untested):
...
date_trunc('month', date_from) <= (int1::text || '-' || int2::text || '-1')::date and date_trunc('month', date_to) >= (int1::text || '-' || int2::text || '-1')::date
...

Cheers,
Steve
