sql server dts: Hi guys

I am using Sql Server2k. In the database i have one field called 'orderdate' as datetime. Now, i want to compare the 'orderdate' falling in a particular period of date. So, i am writing down the query for that which is as follows

select orderid,customerid,orderdate as orderdate from orders where orderdate='07/07/2003

Now, the outcome of this result is zero though i have got orders on this date. As, the value of orderdate is being stored as datetime i have to specify the datetime. But, is there any way to convert or format the database 'orderdate' to only date and not the time so i can search for that date. Any help would be appreciated

Look up CONVERT in BOL
