Hi all,
This is an academic question.  Given a table A with column B (timestamp data type) and date parameter C, how can i force an implicit conversion within a select statement of B to date type? I'm looking at this:
SELECT *
FROM A
WHERE B = C
and I'm not sure if B is being converted to date, or if C is being converted to timestamp... Thanks,
Stephen
