Get the last day of the month in SQL

Question

I need to get the last day of the month given as a date in SQL. If I have the first day of the month, I can do something like this:

DATEADD(DAY, DATEADD(MONT         


        

Answer 1

WinSQL: I wanted to return all records for last month:

where DATE01 between dateadd(month,-1,dateadd(day,1,dateadd(day,-day(today()),today()))) and dateadd(day,-day(today()),today())

This does the same thing:

where month(DATE01) = month(dateadd(month,-1,today())) and year(DATE01) = year(dateadd(month,-1,today()))

Answer 2

Try to run the following query, it will give you everything you want :)

Declare @a date =dateadd(mm, Datediff(mm,0,getdate()),0)
Print('First day of Current Month:')
Print(@a)
Print('')
set @a = dateadd(mm, Datediff(mm,0,getdate())+1,-1)
Print('Last day of Current Month:')
Print(@a)
Print('')

Print('First day of Last Month:')
set @a = dateadd(mm, Datediff(mm,0,getdate())-1,0)
Print(@a)
Print('')

Print('Last day of Last Month:') 
set @a = dateadd(mm, Datediff(mm,0,getdate()),-1)
Print(@a)
Print('')


Print('First day of Current Week:')
set @a = dateadd(ww, Datediff(ww,0,getdate()),0)
Print(@a)
Print('')

Print('Last day of Current Week:')
set @a = dateadd(ww, Datediff(ww,0,getdate())+1,-1)
Print(@a)
Print('')

Print('First day of Last Week:')
set @a =  dateadd(ww, Datediff(ww,0,getdate())-1,0)
Print(@a)
Print('')

Print('Last day of Last Week:')
set @a =  dateadd(ww, Datediff(ww,0,getdate()),-1)
Print(@a)
