SQL query to select dates between two dates

Question

I have a start_date and end_date. I want to get the list of dates in between these two dates. Can anyone help me pointing the mistake in my query.<

Answer 1

Try this:

select Date,TotalAllowance from Calculation where EmployeeId=1
             and [Date] between '2011/02/25' and '2011/02/27'

The date values need to be typed as strings.

To ensure future-proofing your query for SQL Server 2008 and higher, Date should be escaped because it's a reserved word in later versions.

Bear in mind that the dates without times take midnight as their defaults, so you may not have the correct value there.
