Using the GetDate Function
Hi
Having some trouble using the getdate function here is some sample code that i am using for an ASP application:

SELECT COUNT(spotnum) AS total FROM spotcheck WHERE year(checkdate) = year(GETDATE())

that will give me a count of all records for this year, how do i get a count for records last year? year(GETDATE(-1))????

sorry im so clueless

-Jesse
