Hi Everyone,

I use the following to get records from the last two days in MySql:
where date_entered <= curdate() and date_entered >=
DATE_SUB(curdate(),INTERVAL 2 day)

I'm looking to do the same in MS-Sql server but I'm just not getting it.
I've got this so far which does not work:
where hit_date <= GETDATE() and hit_date >= DATE_SUB(GETDATE(),INTERVAL 2
day)

then I tried this:
WHERE hit_date >= DATEDIFF(GETDATE(), (GETDATE()-2)>

Essentially, I need all records from the last two days.

Any help or guidance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Try:

WHERE hit_date >= GETDATE() - 2

Yes. That's it.

Thanks!

Use the dateadd (Or Datediff) for that:

hit_date >= DATEADD(d,-2,GETDATE()), keep in mind that this will
substract the days including the current time, so a 04/19/2006 1:09
will result in 04/17/2006 1:09.

Do you mean yesterday and today's data only?

Select * from yourtable
where datecol>=Dateadd(day,datediff(day,o,getdate()),-1)
