From BOL: "When datepart is week (wk, ww) or weekday (dw), the return value depends on the value that is set by using SET DATEFIRST." The first day of the week is sunday in the US, monday in the UK.Fri, 01 Mar 2013 08:34:25 GMTChrisM@Workhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1425437-1292-1.aspxThanks Chris, I have figured it out now:Declare @From DatetimeDeclare @To Datetime Set @From = '07 Jan 2013'Set @To = '18 Mar 2013' SELECT Datediff(Week, dateadd(dd, CASE WHEN datepart(weekday, @From) = 1 THEN 0 ELSE 8 - datepart(weekday, @From) END,@From), dateadd(dd, CASE WHEN datepart(weekday, @To) = 1 THEN 0 ELSE 1 - datepart(weekday, @To) END,@To))+1Fri, 01 Mar 2013 08:09:04 GMTwafw1971http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1425437-1292-1.aspxWhat happens if your initial FROMdate or TOdate happen to be a sunday?
