Comparing Dates Stored In The Format Yyyy-mm-dd
Hello, I have a date field in a mysql database, that is stored in the format yyyy-mm-dd. I would like to subtract 10 days from the date and then compare it to the current day, so say I select a date in the db is 2008-09-15, I want to compare today (2008-07-28) to 2008-09-05. How would I do this? (I'm using php).

Comparing Timestamp To D/m/yyyy
I have one table, (table1), that contains a timestamp and another table, (table2) that contains the date in this format: d/m/yyyy. I need to update table1 based on data in table2 with one of the clauses being the dates match. So something like this: UPDATE table1 SET x = y WHERE table1.date = table2.date But I"m not sure how to compare a timestamp to that date format?

When INSERT Date In Mm/dd/yyyy Format To Db, Gets Written As Decimal Number
I have built a script to import a text file into a mysql db. I'm having a problem with the date though. In the text file, the date is given as mm/dd/yyyy. The script runs fine, but when I look in the db, the date has been computed to a number. Example the date 12/2/1950 is written to the db as .0031 . I've tried setting the date field as VARCHAR, TEXT, DATE (when i choose DATE, the date just is flat out wrong as in 2000-00-10). What am I missing? I'm not very experienced with mysql and I suspect there is some setting I should be using but aren't. When I echo the date just before the INSERT query is called, it looks correct, as in 12/2/1950. Also, when I echo the $query itself, it shows 12/2/1950.

Comparing String Dates To Current Date For Month And Day
Trying to set the display column to a no if the ending date is before or at the current date. Comparing string dates to the current date for month and day only. Am using CONCAT because the ending date needs to be figured into a date as month_end is in a varchar type and day_end is a tinyint type. The query does run, but it affects everything where continuous != 'always' - seeming to ignore the AND part. UPDATE Listings SET display = 'no' WHERE continuous != 'always' AND STR_TO_DATE(CONCAT(month_end, '-', day_end), '%M-%e') <= DATE_FORMAT(CURDATE(), '%M-%e') What should be done differently here?

Date Format For Table Between Two Dates Given

Below is the query I am using Quote: select row_id from prop_price_period where pid='1' and firstday <='13/09/2008' and lastday >='13/09/2008'. This query was working fine until yesterday since I was using the MM/DD/YYYY (USA) date format. Today we required our application to support both the date formats (USA & UK). So I changed the date format to DD/MM/YYYY. Now this query is returning wrong result set.

Converting MS Access Dates To MySQL Dates During LOAD DATA INPUT ?

Update String Dates Into Mysql Dates
I've got a table that someone created with varchar fields for month, day, and year. I've added a DATE field to the table, and now I want to combine all three of these strings into one DATE and stick it into the DATE field. Once I've got this done, I can delete those three varchar fields and just have the nice DATE field. Here's the command I've tried in several variations but no luck--syntax errors every time: UPDATE SET OCR_Entry_Date = date_format(str_to_date(concat_ws('-', OCR_MM, OCR_DD , OCR_YYYY) ,"%b-%d-%Y"), "%m-%d-%Y") WHERE OCR_YYYY = '1974' OCR_Entry_Date is a DATE field and the others are the varchar fields. My logic is basically: 1. concatenate the separate field values into a single string 2. convert the string into a date 3. format the date in the way I'd like it in the table

MSSQL Dates -> MySQL Dates Automatically?
We're using data feeds that were originally meant for MS SQL and the dates in the data feed (tab delimited text files) are formated like: Oct 21 2007 In MySQL, the date fields are formatted as datetime fields and when we do an import the dates all come through as 0000-00-00 00:00:00. We're importing using the MySQL "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE" command and just dumping the text files right into freshly truncated tables. Is there a way when loading the files to find and replace the dates maybe? Can MySQL convert the dates? I have a shell script downloading an archive and uncompressing, then it runs a PHP script that loops through the files runningt he LOAD DATA command. Any advice would be appreciated... I'm just looking for the easiest (and least server-intensive) way to get the date issue fixed. We've already tried begging the vendor but they're not yet ready to start supporting other date formats (even though their MS SQL db can output a date format friendly to MySQL). Thanks!

List All The Dates Between 2 Given Dates Using SELECT

I have a member table with the following columns: id int autoincrement name varchar(40) join_date date I want the following output (date, count of members joined on that date): 1 April 2009...... (2 members joined) 2 April 2009...... (0 members joined) 3 April 2009...... (3 members joined) .....so on ...upto 30 April 2009.....(1 members joined) For the above output I need the SQL command that is valid in mysql. Is there anyone who can produce the above result with a single SELECT command. Please don't suggest that is possible using php for loop or creating a mysqlorary table first and then inserting all the dates into it. Then make a join between mysql table and members table using date as GROUP by column etc. etc. I know this is possible using some user variables as I searched through the various SQL tutorial sites. But I am unable to figure out how I can produce a list of all dates between 2 given dates.
