title: SQL select where startdate is today's date
body: <p>I am trying to write a query where the clause is when the start date for an employee is todays date.</p>
  
  <pre><code>select * from tbl_employees
  where Startdate = getdate()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The issue is that Startdate is '2014-12-09 00:00:00.000'
  and the function <code>getdate</code> is coming back with the date and time like '2014-12-09 08:25:16.013'</p>
  
  <p>How can I write a query that only consider's the date?</p>
