Select empid,checkintime from EducationDepartment

WHERE DATEDIFF(ss,checkintime,getdate()) < 7200.

I have converted 2 hrs into seconds to get as much correct results as possible.

Can anyone help to find the syntax error in this query?

@query = 'select empID from EducationDepartment where DateDiff(hh, checkInTime, getdate()) > 2 and userPriority = 1 and status != "closed"'

Thx,

Linus

Probably the doublequotes here status != "closed"'

But more importantly - why are you running this as dynamic sql? It should run just fine as it is.
