[sql] Get all dates between two dates in SQL Server

My first suggestion would be use your calendar table, if you don't have one, then create one. They are very useful. Your query is then as simple as:

DECLARE @MinDate DATE = '20140101',
        @MaxDate DATE = '20140106';

SELECT  Date
FROM    dbo.Calendar
WHERE   Date >= @MinDate
AND     Date < @MaxDate;

If you don't want to, or can't create a calendar table you can still do this on the fly without a recursive CTE:

DECLARE @MinDate DATE = '20140101',
        @MaxDate DATE = '20140106';

SELECT  TOP (DATEDIFF(DAY, @MinDate, @MaxDate) + 1)
        Date = DATEADD(DAY, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY a.object_id) - 1, @MinDate)
FROM    sys.all_objects a
        CROSS JOIN sys.all_objects b;

With regard to then using this sequence of dates in a cursor, I would really recommend you find another way. There is usually a set based alternative that will perform much better.

So with your data:

  date   | it_cd | qty 
24-04-14 |  i-1  | 10 
26-04-14 |  i-1  | 20

To get the quantity on 28-04-2014 (which I gather is your requirement), you don't actually need any of the above, you can simply use:

SELECT  TOP 1 date, it_cd, qty 
FROM    T
WHERE   it_cd = 'i-1'
AND     Date <= '20140428'
ORDER BY Date DESC;

If you don't want it for a particular item:

SELECT  date, it_cd, qty 
FROM    (   SELECT  date, 
                    it_cd, 
                    qty, 
                    RowNumber = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY ic_id 
                                                    ORDER BY date DESC)
            FROM    T
            WHERE   Date  <= '20140428'
        ) T
WHERE   RowNumber = 1;
