    Hello There

    I need some help from the experts. I have a report requirement. My question is how to retrieve data from the table based on weekends i.e( sat and sun) in a specified month. I am using sql server 2000.

    Thanks

    Try using this in your query.

    SELECT * FROM tablenae WHERE DATEPART(dw, datecolumn) IN (1, 7);

    Thanks a lot. that worked.

    I have another requirement where I want to retrieve data from the table after working hours (i.e)

    Monday-Thursday : after 6pm and before 8am

    and on weekends full day i.e from Friday 6pm to Monday -8am that includes Sat and Sunday)

    Thanks once again.

    You can answer that one yourself. Use the DATEPART function again. If you don't know the syntax, you'll find it in Books Online or on the web.

    Try using this in your query.

    SELECT * FROM tablenae WHERE DATEPART(dw, datecolumn) IN (1, 7);

    Better make real sure what the DATEFIRST setting is if you're going to use that method. 😉

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
