HI,
i think the problem is with the invoice date. probably it has the timestamp along with it and not comparing with the date give
so find the date diff to compare the dates as follows

select invoice,right(isnull(code,'XXXXXXXX'),2) from invoice where DATEDIFF(DD,invoicedate,'2008-01-04') = 0

hope will work

thanks
