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?

Check If The Current Date Is Between Two Dates
I have a table with the folowing fields: - id (int) - event_title (text) - event_description (text) - event_start (date) - event_end (date) I would like to know how can I build a query to select the events available between two dates (event_start and event_end). For example, if one of the event has "event_start" = 2007-06-01 and "event_end" = 2007-06-05, if I select 2007-06-02 as the current date I would like to see this event.

Comparing Difference Between Current Record And Previous, Non-sequential/variable Data
I have a locally-developed asset tracking system in which inventory operators upload batches of time stamped CSV data into a “move_log†via a handheld barcode scanner after they take an inventory of what assets are in a particular location. I would like to be able to identify each time an item actually moved from one location to the next. Sounds simple, however: 1. An item may be inventoried multiple times without actually moving (think large items that don’t move very often, if ever). This means an entry in the “move_log†table for each inventory sweep, even if no change in location. 2. An item may move from one location to another, then back to the original location, perhaps several times. Think items such as laptops kept in a central depot and checked out for use. This means that a simple “SELECT DISTINCT†will not show the actual number of moves, just the number of different places an asset has been. Unless I am missing something, the best way I can think to describe a “move†is to look at the entries for each asset, and then compare with the previous entry for that asset. Any difference between the current entry and the previous would count as one “move.†Of course, there is no set number of entries for a particular asset. Some assets may have been inventoried once or twice, others dozens of times. I would like to do this entirely within MySQL if possible. The table in question: ...

Comparing Two Dates?

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

Comparing A Field With A String
I would like to run a select statement against a table, with a where condition that a field (less all it's non-alphanumeric chars) = a string. Ordering is important. For example the following should all evalute true, '1 2 3' = '123' '1"23' = '123' '1 23' = '123' '(abcde)' = 'abcde' where as these should evaluate false, '123' != '321' '1a23' != '123' 'abc' != abcd' I have a sinking feeling I need regex for this, which is unfortunate as I know none.

Date :: Select X Number Of Months Ahead Of Current Date
I am trying to query dates stored in my mysql database... eg: 2005-12-13 (13th Dec 2005) 2006-03-14 (14th Mar 2005) My SQL query needs to fetch all the records which are X number of months ahead of the current date. eg: I query it saying "get me all records where the date is 1 month from now.... I have used this (MONTH(date_review)-MONTH(CURDATE())) which returns 1 - so this is ok - as it's November, and december is one month away.... but when I ask for 3 months - it wont get the records... I know I somehow need to add the months on - but how do I do this with the year attached too?

Selecting Records Between Two Dates Occurring In Certain Month Of A Year
I have trouble with querying events for my calendar. It consists of as simple fields as these (only relevant fields to my question): event_id (INT10) event_date_begin (DATE) event_date_end (DATE) now, an example row: event_date_begin has a value of 2008-12-28, event_date_end has a value of 2009-01-04 How can I retrieve this row, knowing only the current month and year, say I want to display all the events in my calendar happening / continuing in January 2009 (1/2009). So this query should be able to fetch my example row, because the event is still occurring in January (ending date in 2009-01-04). I can display one month / year at a time, so the query always has those, for example 01, 2009. I think what I need, is some kind of "function" to check, if certain month and year exist between those two date fields..? The closest I've got so far is: 'SELECT event_id, event_date_begin, event_date_end FROM events WHERE 12 BETWEEN MONTH(event_date_begin) AND MONTH(event_date_end) OR MONTH(event_date_begin) = 12 ORDER BY event_id ASC'; This query returns all the necessary rows, also if the event continues to the next month, but when the year changes it stops working correctly..

Updating A Table Via Select, But Include Current Date
I have a table that's collecting the number of times a sponsor logo is shown and clicked. I'd like to run a daily job to gather that info into a separate table for later report generation. The report table has id, date, shown, clicked as fields and all of those except the date come from a second table. So, I'd like to run a job daily that does something similar to the following: update s_r (id, date=TODAY(), shown, clicked) from (select id, shown clicked) from s; I'm generally familiar with database work but don't have deep knowledge (yet :) and I evidently don't have my search skills tuned for database questions yet.
