SELECT string date rows In a Date Range using variable - mysql

Question

Good day! I have a problem about filtering string date in date range using variable. Here's my sample query that didn't work:
Select * from table_name where datee >= '" & result & "' and datee1 <= '" & result1 & "';
This code displays same date , 2012-12-31 and 2012-12-31.. What I want is on the greater than equal will display is 2012-12-01 and for less than or equal to is 2012-12-31.. Here's my code for date range:
Dim datee, datee1, result, result1 as string
Dim dateTime As Date
Dim dTime As Date
dateTime = Date.Parse(datee)
dTime = Date.Parse(datee1)
result = dateTime.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
result1 = dTime.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")

Answer 1

Try this please: (assuming your variables are holding proper date formats and values and database string date format is YYYY-MM-DD)
Select * from table_name where Str_to_Date(datee,'%Y-%m-%d') >=
'" & result & "' and Str_to_Date(datee1,'%Y-%m-%d') <= '" & result1 & "'
;
Since 12-01 to 12-31 covers Month of December.. you can try:
Select * from table_name where Month(Str_to_Date(datee,'%Y-%m-%d')) = 12
;
Hence,
Select * from table_name where
Month(Str_to_Date(datee,'%Y-%m-%d')) = " & Month(result1) & "
;
Check the demo very carefully on the query that I have used month function and the string dates format in the sample demo table:
