Hi,

It should work. What does it mean "... but not..."?
If you copy/paste an example it's easier to help you...
To extract the year: Select extract(year from Date_Column) from My_table.
To extract the hour: Select extract(hour from Date_Column) from My_table. May
be wrong sentance?

Yes. E.g. add 1/24 to add one hour... i.e. you should do some math...
As you said 'If you copy/paste an example it's easier to help' me.
Thanks.
