    Hi, I am capturing results from "1st day of the month" to "last day of the month".

    How can I replace function to avoid put date manulally.

    --Script which need to be updated to run in SQL-Server 6.5 version

    Select * from depend

    where effdate >='2009-05-01' --1st of current month

    and effdate< '2009-06-01' --1st of next month --I have script for SQL-Server 2000 but not able to run SQL-Server 6.5 and getting error of 'Operand type clash: int is incompatible with datetime'
    --Script is fine in SQL-server 2000
    SELECT * FROM depend
    WHERE EffDate>=DATEADD(month,DATEDIFF(month,0,GETDATE()),0)

    AND EffDate

    You appear to be missing part of the query after the AND. What's the full query look like?

    Oh, yeah.... the other thing to try is changing the "0" date to '1900-01-01' everywhere.
