Hi!

Following expression probably will help you. The main idea is the same, but you need to use other functions on SQL server:

dateadd(dd,-1,dateadd(mm,1,'10/01/2000'))

returns 2000-10-31 - last day of the 10-th month.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
