tocis,
Ignore the first post, this is better. Schedule your job to be run on the
first of every month. This will give you the prior month date range for any
date, not just the 1st. This way if the job fails you can also run it on the
2nd, 3rd, etc.
declare @Now datetime
declare @StartDate datetime
declare @EndDate datetime
set @Now = getdate()
-- to get end date, subtract days to get to get 1st of the month for any
date
set @EndDate = dateadd(d, 1 - datepart(d,@Now), @Now)
-- remove the time portion
set @EndDate = convert(char(12), @EndDate, 112)
-- subtract a month for start date
set @StartDate = dateadd(m, -1, @EndDate)
print cast(@StartDate as char(25)) + cast(@EndDate as char(25))
-- execute your code here using >= @StartDate and < @EndDate
-- Bill
