Author Last Year Month to Date Function
Frank Bishop

2006-02-16, 3:24 am

I have been spoiled by some report writing tools that have intrinsic
functions like Last Year Month-to-date. I'm looking for a way to emulate
this in SQL Server now with my fields that are date/time.

I'm thinking I need to develop a user defined function to accept a date
input parameter, but I don't know where to start.

Help/Examples appreciated.

Thanks,
Frank

Hi, Frank

If you have a date and you want to obtain the corresponding date in the
previous year, you can use the DATEADD function, like this:
DATEADD(year, -1, @TheDate). For more informations, see:
