Syntax Error-Help!!

Ty
Syntax Error-Help!!

My error "SQL0180N The syntax of the string representation of a
datetime value is incorrect. SQLSTATE=22007" .

I'm using yyyy-mm-dd. I can see the dates in a column on another
query as 2007-06-17 23:00:13.827584 which is yyyy-mm-dd time(i
guess).

My attempt:
SELECT <column_list>
FROM ABXDB01.mdall_rec_holdg
WHERE ABX_REQ_BUCKT = 'OK'
AND CMPL_Q_DT '2008-03-01';

2nd attempt:
AND CMPL_Q_DT '2008-03-01'

3rd attempt:
AND CMPL_Q_DT '2008-03-01%';

4th attempt without the DT works ok:

SELECT <column_list>
FROM ABXDB01.mdg_req_holdg
WHERE ABX_REQ_BUCKT = 'OK'

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ty

DB2 interprets '2008-03-01' as a date, and CMPL_Q_DT is
(presumably) a timestamp. So, use either:

CMPL_Q_DT '2008-03-01-00.00.00.000000'

or

DATE(CMPL_Q_DT) '2008-03-01'
The latter form will preclude the use of any index on the
CMPL_Q_DT column, so you're better off specifying the full
timestamp.

DB2 interprets '2008-03-01' as a date, and CMPL_Q_DT is
(presumably) a timestamp. *So, use either:

* * CMPL_Q_DT '2008-03-01-00.00.00.000000'

Got it!!! It is a timestamp. I used the '2008-03-01-00.00.00.000000'

Actually, the two above choices are not equivalent (I made the same error in
my post). These would be the same:

CMPL_Q_DT >= '2008-03-02-00.00.00.000000'
DATE(CMPL_Q_DT) '2008-03-01'

But I am not sure of the intent of the OP.

Thanks for all of the help...

SELECT <column_list>
FROM ABXDB01.mdg_req_holdg
WHERE ABX_REQ_BUCKT = 'OK'

Is it possible to use "*" wildcard to display everything for
ABX_REQ_BUCKT?

SELECT DISTINCT abx_req_buckt
FROM abxdb01.mdg_req_holdg
