Hi

So i have a table which i want to search for specific data on a specific date and time.

I have a field called DT which consist on date and time. I can be able to return research for specific date but i m having issue to return specific time as well.

so for example i have:

SQL

select t.*, t.rowid from customers t where trunc(created_date) = to_date ('07/08/2015, 'mm-dd-yyyy')

Now the field that holds the data is like this:

04/08/2015 11:34:24 AM

So my question is how do i modify my SQL to bring back results for that specific time??

Thanks in advance!

SQL

Use time format HH:MI:SS in your to_date function, Like this
where created_date > to_date('07/08/2014 15:14:30' , 'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
