RE: SQL Between

["Goodbar, Loyd (ETS - Water Valley)" <LGoodbar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

However, if the century field is like IBM's format CYYMMDD, the first SQL
would need to be:
Where (((ncc + 19) * 1000000) +
       (nyy * 10000) + 
...

The second SQL would work
If you say:
...
Between '1050301' and '1050311'

For March 1, 2005 - March 11, 2005.

Hi Tony

The following two statements worked perfectly for me, in the first one the
fields are all 2 digit numeric and in the second one they are all two
characters.

select * from masonj02/tstpsql                                     
 where ((ncc * 1000000) +                                          
        (nyy * 10000) +                                            
        (nmm * 100) +                                              
        (ndd)) between 19980101 and 19981231                       

select * from masonj02/tstpsql                                     
 where (acc || ayy || amm || add) between '19980101' and '19981231'


All the best

Jonathan

> I need to run an SQL BETWEEN to compare some date fields. The problem
IÃââm having is our dates are stored in separate fields (century, year,
month, and day). I've tried to concatenate the fields together, but that
doesn't seem to work.
