What's a good way to check if two datetimes are on the same calendar day in TSQL?

Question

Here is the issue I am having: I have a large query that needs to compare datetimes in the where clause to see if two dates are on the same day. My current solution, which suck

Answer 1

I would use the dayofyear function of datepart:

Select *
from mytable
where datepart(dy,date1) = datepart(dy,date2)
and
year(date1) = year(date2) --assuming you want the same year too

See the datepart reference here.
