I've created a sql statement that I'm try get the number of messages that will expire during a certain time period. I'm looking to purge messages according to mm/dd/yyyy. I'm having a world of difficulty figuring the statement format out assistence would be appriciate.
SQL script:
select originationtime, expirationtime, ((TO_DATE('01/01/1970', 'MM/DD/YYYY')) + (originationtime/(86400000.0)) - (5.0/24.0)), ((TO_DATE('01/01/1970', 'MM/DD/YYYY')) + (expirationtime/(86400000.0)) - (5.0/24.0)) from messages
gives me the following:
originationtime expirationtime
dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm
this will go on for 600,000 rows with different dates and times I need to obtain a count of the number of messages that with a expirationtime of say 06/29/2011 then do the same for messages with an expirationtime for 09/15/2007. Thanks...
