there’s an error in the UTCToJulianDay method, the right method is
function UTCToJulianDay(newDate:Date):Number{
return ((newDate.time – (newDate.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000)) / 86400000 + 2440587.5);
}
Thanks for the great job!

You don’t need to write your own conversion routine since SQLite provides one for you. All you have to do is call strftime(“%J”, date). For example:

select * from SomeTable where create_at > strftime( “%J”, startDate ) and strftime( “%J”, endDate )

That will convert it to Julian for you.

Hello,
If your date is stored as a Date by your AIR app, you can also make the following
SELECT * FROM myTable
WHERE date(dateField) BETWEEN “2009-02-01″ AND “2009-02-28″

This is much more simple and there is no need to convert data excepted by the date() function in the query but nothing in the actionscript code.
It actualy depends on your specific needs

Cheers

You can also format the date column to match the date format you want.
something like this:
SELECT strftime(‘%d-%m-%Y’, recordedDate) AS theDate, FROM myTable WHERE theDate BETWEEN ’02-02-2009′ AND ’13-02-2009′
