The YEAR function returns the year part of a value. The argument
must be a date, timestamp, or a valid character string representation of a
date or timestamp. The result of the function is an integer between 1 and 9 999.
If the argument
can be null, the result can be null; if the argument is null, the result is
the null value.
Example
Select all the projects in the PROJECT table that are scheduled
to start (PRSTDATE) and end (PRENDATE) in the same calendar year.
SELECT * FROM PROJECT WHERE YEAR(PRSTDATE) = YEAR(PRENDATE)
