An example:


select * from customerOrder
where MONTH(YourDateColumn) = 10 -- 10=october

But this is regardless the year.
You can use YEAR() similar to limit the result.

if your date column has an existing index,

DECLARE @Y int,@M int
SELECT @Y=2008,@M=10--example values

select * from customerOrder
where YourDateColumn> = DATEADD(mm,@M-1,DATEADD(yy,@Y-1900,0))
AND YourDateColumn<DATEADD(mm,@M,DATEADD(yy,@Y-1900,0))
