Here’s the brilliant idea of comparing Dates in SQL. The query is helpful for DB2 SQL developers. For this demo, I chose three examples. This logic you can follow for comparing the DATEs in your project.

SQL Query Compares Dates using ‘>’ Greater than

SELECT *
FROM   table
WHERE purchdate > '2002-10-01';

The syntax for DATE is

datecolumn > ‘XXXX-XX-XX’

  • Always you need to give date in quotes.
  • You can use <, >, = in DATE comparisons.

SQL Query Compare Dates using ‘<‘ Less than

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE purchdate < '2002-10-10';

SQL Query Using DATE ‘=’ Equal to

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE purchdate = '2020-04-19;
