Check Query For Syntax Prior To Execution
I was wondering if it was at all possible to check an SQL query prior to execution for syntax errors?
A method which wouldn't alter the data to which the SQL statement related to.
I'm guessing you could perform a transaction of sorts, but is there another way?

CHECK Syntax
I have a table as follows: CREATE TABLE country ( codeCHAR(2)NOT NULL, ... ... CHECK (CHAR_LENGTH(code) == 2) ); The entry for 'code' MUST be two characters long. Although CHECK is not yet implemented by mySQL, is the above syntax correct? Secondly, the entry for 'code' MUST not contain any numbers. What is the syntax to check for that? Currently I am doing the checking before inserting the data but would like to implement it in the database too.

I need to do CHECK TABLE on a lot of tables (actually on all tables in several databases), and hoped to do something like mysql> CHECK TABLE reports.* which ddn't work. The only thing that seems to work is using cut'n'paste (or some scritpting) to get a comme seperated list. Is there really no "smart" way of doing this?

Query Execution Too Slow!
I have migrated from MySQL 4.1.22 to MySQL 5.0.45. Many of the queries that were working on my old server is working too slow in my new server(MySQL version 5.0.45). I am not aware why is this happening. Actually there is no error message or query failing. The query is executing, but the time taking to execute the query is too long. This problem is not occurring for all queirs, but only for some complex queires, that is queries with Left Join or Right Join, Group By etc. I have also checked the MySQL details through SSH(that is by mysql> SHOW VARIABLES;) Now one thing I found is there is lot of difference in key_buffer_size, table_cache, join_buffer_size, read_buffer_size, read_rnd_buffer_size , table_cache etc between my new server MySQL and old server MySQL. Will this be the reason for query execution taking too much time. Can any one guide me why this is happening. The striking thing is that these quires was working very much fine and faster in my old server.

Query Log With Execution Time?
I have developed a big property portal web site and have probably written about 1000 different SQL queries in the process (OK, maybe only 500 or so) but a lot. The site is now gaining popularity and although it is on a dedicated server I want to make sure that everything is running smoothly. I have optimised several tables with indexes etc. and have sped up certain tasks, but would like to know if there are any other queries that take too long and should be optimised. Is there a way to log all queries together with the time it took to execute the query? Is this already logged and if so - where is it?

Slow Query Execution
Right now I am fazing one issue which is getting hell out of me. I am explaining the issues step by step. 1.I have one site running from last 3 years with large database and there is one main table which has maximum load. 2.Now, I have redesigned the site with lots of changes within this table too. 3.The problem is that the server is same, queries are same but output in the new database is taking 50 times more execution time. 4.I also just copy paste the table, and fire the same query... Strange even that is not working... Is it something where newly added table or database is having issues in the server? I have tried all, compared the structures of the data and table but still the query result is too slow on live testing sever. While same query in main site of same server is running perfectly.

Query Execution Time In PHP Script
I am interested in displaying the query execution time as mysql does from the console, but using php. I've looked everywhere for this and can't find anything. Does anyone know how to display this information to the browser via php? The information must be there since the console provides it. I checked the php function mysql_info(), but that only shows records, duplicates, deleted, matches, changed, warnings, etc. Didnt see any specific php function for getting execution time.

Slow Execution For A Left Outer Join Query
Whats likely to be the cause of slow execution for a left outer join query? The original query joins three tables but even if I narrow it down to one it still takes a long time to execute. $query = "select distinct materials.* from materials"; $query .= " left outer join materials_products on materials.material_id = materials_products.material_id"; There's 914 rows in the materials table and 1348 row in the materials_products table Is it likely to take a long time for this amount of data or is there likely to be a problem in the table(s) set up or query?

How To Check For Date/time Ranges Within Record (check For Schedule Conflicts)
You want to check scheduling conflicts and you have a record like: appointments(table): apptID beginningDate endingDate beginningTime endingTime It's easy enough to check if a time is within that record. Say you want to check if 8:00am to 10:00am is available, you would use this: SELECT apptID FROM appointments WHERE (beginningDate = '2006-01-19' OR endingDate = '2006-01-19') AND ('08:00:00' BETWEEN beginningTime AND endingTime OR '10:00:00' BETWEEN beginningTime AND endingTime) BUT, what if you have an all-day appointment (8:00am to 5:00pm) and there exists an appointment already scheduled from 10:00am to 11:00am. The above query would not find it. Another question is what if the appointment is more than two days. Say, it's from Monday - Wednesday from 8am to 5pm. The above query would not successfully catch it if you wanted to schedule an appointment on Tuesday. (I might be able to generate a date range using PHP, don't know if that's the best way)

What Query To Check If Any Rows Exist Satisfying WHERE Clause?
I'm looking for a query that will check if any rows exists in a table according to a WHERE condition. I know I can use COUNT(*) but then mysql will do unnecessary task of counting all the rows whereas I just need true or false. So far I did this: SELECT COUNT(*) AS exists FROM mytable WHERE ... Sometimes I just select the first row and check later in php how many rows have been returned: SELECT some_col FROM mytable WHERE ... LIMIT 1 But I cannot do this check (or can I?) in sql alone and I have problems when I want to use this in a subquery, for example: SELECT id, name, (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mytable WHERE ...) AS exists FROM othertable WHERE surname='xxx' Can I do the same without using COUNT(*)? I would like a query that returns 0 or NULL if no rows were found, or 1 (or some other value) if 1 or more rows were found.

SHOW WARNINGS Prior To 4.1
I would like to ask if there is something similar to SHOW WARNINGS in version prior to 4.1 for the command line client. Does it simply print whatever warnings there is in the output? Or the number of warnings is by far smaller? In "13.5.4.22. SHOW WARNINGS Syntax" I read: "Note that the framework for warnings was added in MySQL 4.1.0, at which point many statements did not generate warnings" For example would DROP TABLE IF EXISTS no_such_table; generate a warning in 4.0? (I currenlly have only 4.1 and 5, and I simply can't try without installing :)

How To Get Sort Index (Rank) Without Returning All Prior Records?
I want to get the sorted rank of a record without returning all prior records and counting them. Is it possible to get the order index given a unique key value, or even using the unique value of a field within any SELECT statement? For example: 100,000 players in a network game. Player ID is unqiue and scores are indexed. Specific player asks for his rank among the scores of the 100,000 players. Return rank of the record without returning all records up to player's record. Returning player's specific record with the rank would be a plus.

Help With SQL Query Syntax
Basically have one table Orders, and another OrderDetails. Have a page that lists Orders (simply based on the Orders table), and the user can click through to view the OrderDetails using the code : PHP <a href="orderdetails.php?ID=<?php echo $row_rsOrders['OrderID']; ?>"><?php echo $row_rsOrders['VendorTxCode']; ?></a> Which works fine. However, I want to show on the Details page a couple of fields from the Orders Table - ie OrderTotal and VendorTxCode. My query at the moment looks like : PHP SELECT * FROM Orders, OrderDetails WHERE Orders.OrderID = OrderDetails.DetailOrderID But think I need to use a JOIN (INNER) so that it knows which record to use based on the current OrderID, as the above is showing the values from the first record in the Orders table.

Query Syntax
I'm a newbie having trouble retrieving data for a tennis stats page. My goal is fairly straightforward. I just want to list the guys in order of best record (best record being best sum of (sets won/sets lost)+(games won/games lost) with a minimum of 10 sets played). All the sets and games won data are in table "statistics". Only the first and last names of the players are in table "players" The two tables can overlap with a user_id $query = "SELECT CONCAT(first_name, ' ', last_name) AS name, SUM(sets_won), SUM(sets_lost), SUM(games_won), SUM(games_lost) FROM players, statistics WHERE MIN(SUM(sets_won)+SUM(sets_lost))>10 ORDER BY((SUM(sets_won)/SUM(sets_lost))+(SUM(games_won)/SUM(games_lost))) DESC Unfortunately, my knowledge of MySQL syntax is not great.

It is important to note that the above date part is YYYY-MM-DD as the convention might be different in your locality. Anyway, I am looking for an SQL query that will go through the table and whenever the date/time shown in field D is no more than 5 days ago, to add X (some whole number chosen and manually specified in the query each time it's run) to the value in field C
