RE: Date conditioned SQL Select

Umm.  Now that I think about it, the result could be incorrect if user
enter 30990912.  I hate to have to hardcode but I think you are going to
have to this time.  Try this:
select * from myFile
 where                                           
   CYYMMDD = 
      (case 
         when substr(digits(ccyymmdd),1,2) = '20'
           then dec('1' concat substr(digits(ccyymmdd),3,6),7,0)       
         when substr(digits(ccyymmdd),1,2) = '19'
           then dec('0' concat substr(digits(ccyymmdd),3,6),7,0) 
         else 
           99999999
       end)

All:

I have a file that I need to read based on a user-input date field
(CCYYMMDD). The file field I am comparing to is a 7 digit date field
(CYYMMDD). 

In SQL, how do I get the select statement to pull records based on a
comparison of these two fields?

TIA
