How to select time stamp data as date

[M Wilson]

I would like to know how in my sql to select the date part of a time stamp date?
For example:
select REF_NO, STAT_CD, DATE_TS
FROM TABLE

The result of this returns DATE_TS = 2011-01-24 08:45:19.977
How can my sql return just the 2011-01-24 part of it?

Thank you very much.
