Based on the famous emp table
1 select hiredate from emp
2* order by 1
SQL> /
HIREDATE
17-DEC-80 20-FEB-81 22-FEB-81 02-APR-81 01-MAY-81 09-JUN-81 08-SEP-81 28-SEP-81 17-NOV-81 03-DEC-81 03-DEC-81 23-JAN-82 19-APR-87 23-MAY-87
To get a range, only those items between 01-FEB-1981and 28-FEB-1981....
1 select hiredate from emp where to_char(hiredate,'MM/DD/YYYY')
2* like '02/'||'%'||'/1981'

HIREDATE
