between dates

in sql2000
"select * from tbl where tbl.date between date1 and date2" - results with
nothing
"select * from tbl where tbl.date >= date1 " - gives result
"select * from tbl where tbl.date >= date1 and tbl.date<=date2" - results
with nothing
how to select between 2 dates?
thanksHow about providing us with real specs, e.g. are the columns really
datetime/smalldatetime? What data is in them? What values are you using
for date1 and date2? What format are they in?
Please see http://www.aspfaq.com/5006 ... otherwise vague questions will
only get vague answers.

the values are simple:
"select * from tbl where tbl.date between 01/01/2002 and 01/05/2005" -
gives NO RESULT
"select * from tbl where tbl.date >= 01/01/2002" - gives GOO DRESULT
"select * from tbl where tbl.date >=01/01/2002 and <=01/05/2005" - gives NO
RESULT

(b) never use ambiguous and silly formats like m/d/y or d/m/y. Is
01/05/2005 January 5th or May 1st? Who knows?
Try:
WHERE date >= '20020101' AND date <= '20050105'

What are the date values for these results? Are they all later than
"01/05/2005"?
Perayu|||i found the solution:
@.date1 nvarchar(12), @.date2 nvarchar(12),
'BETWEEN CONVERT(DATETIME, ' + char(39) + @.date1 + char(39) + ', 102) AND
CONVERT(DATETIME, '+ char(39) + @.date2 + char(39) +', 102)'
