In our free SDU Tools for developers and DBAs, we have added many tools that help to manipulate dates.
When creating a date dimension (as part of dimensional modeling), you need to be able to get a list of all the dates between a start date and an end date. There are many other reasons why you might need to do this as well.
So we've added a table-valued function called DatesBetween to do just this. It takes a start date and an end date as parameters and returns all dates between. As well as the date values, it also numbers each of the dates.
In the main image above, you can see an example of it in use.
You can also see them in action here:
