Here is my query, I d like to create this simple date compare query, but not working. This query don't add anything out. Why? How can I compare dates in sqlite?

Answer 1

Try below query using strftime date functions.

SELECT * from table_my
WHERE strftime('%Y-%m-%d', my_date )
     between  
          strftime('%Y-%m-%d', '2014-07-23') 
          and 
          strftime ('%Y-%m-%d', '2014-07-30');

EDIT:

To use with hours and minutes, you can try something like:

SELECT * from table_my
WHERE strftime('%Y-%m-%d  %H:%M', my_date )
     between  
          strftime('%Y-%m-%d  %H:%M', '2014-07-23 11:22') 
          and 
          strftime ('%Y-%m-%d  %H:%M', '2014-07-23 11:25');
