a growth spurt brings me to select * from composer where strftime('%m', birthdate) == "04" ; And because my csv file had some entries like 1987-1-23, I also needed select * from composer where strftime('%m', birthdate) is null ; Putting that date into the file as 1987-01-23 would have worked as expected.
