Convert the date to a string in the same format, then you can compare. Or convert your string to a date first.

I think you are making a statement. Sometimes its better to ask questions when you want someone to answer it.

Op says

My requirement is DATE_PURCH<>'1900-01-01'
it is ok

Is the question

i have to handel null for it

If yes, assuming source is char at this point, it will be

NullToValue(DATE_PURCH, '1900-01-01') <> '1900-01-01'

My assumption was "it is ok" should really have been "is it ok?".
