Question

I have this query, i need to select all records between two dates, the mysql table is a datetime format.

I tried this but it didn't work.

select * from cdr
 WHERE calldate BETWEEN '2012-12-01' AND '2012-12-03';

Answer 1

Try this instead:

select * from cdr
WHERE DATE(calldate) BETWEEN '20121201' AND '20121203';
