I am trying to write a query to search the database between data range and display the record, where date is in the format(DD-MM-YYYY)

SELECT *,date_format(post_time,'%d-%m-%Y Time:%H:%i:%s') as post FROM member_comment where (post_time between '12-02-2008' and '12-02-2009')

post_time is of type datetime

Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Also will this query work in the same way on mysql also?

[code]SELECT *,post_time as post FROM member_comment where post_time between '20080212' and '20090212')[/code]

do the formatting at your front end

I assume you're using MS SQL in which case there's no date_format function available
