SQL date inquiry

Can someone explain this : a select for a date field such as "=
'25-AUG-98' " returns no rows, but changing the "=" to "like" does
return the desired rows...I realize that date fields also include time
information, but I'm wondering why "like" works without the usual "%"
wildcard.
