Einar,
This is what I am doing:

where PmntDueDate >= CONVERT(DATETIME, FLOOR(CONVERT(FLOAT, GETDATE())))

Basically my PmntDueDate fields could be any date/time combination, and this runs in a DTS script every morning at 7AM to find the records that came due that day, regardless of the time.
Very fitting: http://xkcd.com/386/
