Dataview: How to find notes created on specific date

Well, with your query you get the files created on the same date of your daily note. You can replace your query by this (with the format “YYYY-MM-DD” you can get a date with the implicit field file.day):

```dataview
TABLE file.ctime as "Created"
WHERE file.cday = this.file.day
SORT file.ctime DESC
```

Your second point… well, you have a problem! Dataview results are dynamic: what you see is the “actual” metadata, when you run the query. It’s a “view”. Modified date is also a dynamic date. The value in file.mday or file.mtime change every time you made modifications to your file. Then, if you use a query with the modification date this value changes accordingly.
This to say that you can’t have a “stable” table in a specific daily note. If your goal is «know all the files that I modified in this date", if in the next day you modify a file in that list then the file move out from results in the previous daily note query.
