I know there is a date function : TO_DAYS

but is there a function that will turn a date object into millseconds or seconds?

A Date Function
I read that MySQL needs dates to be in the form YYYY-MM-DD before you can store them in a table. Since users probably won't enter dates in that order (more likely MM-DD-YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY) is there a MySQL date function that I can apply to the date before it is inserted into the database to format the date correctly? (or does the order of the elements have to be taken care of by the application prior to the database query?)

Date Function Question
I know how to query through a db and display rows per day, when I query dates. Such as

2006-05-24 ... rest of mysql row
2006-05-25....

and so on until 2006-05-31, for instance.

But can we do this with mysql?

2006-05-24 - 2006-05-30

as ONE column? I want to use count(IP) in a query and add records in that timespan and not have a loop of rows per day. Rather, ONE row return with the date format above which *summarizes* over a week of records using a count function. Something like

Select count(ip) from table where date > 2006-05-23 and date < 2006-05-31

but somehow, it creates one row for
2006-05-24 - 2006-05-30

And yes, I rename date to something else ;0

Is this possible? I am doing it with php, but it's a bit frustrating as it forces me to loop and repeat queries within the loop.

IF Function,GROUP BY,aggregate Function Problems
Yep, I have all those problems in the title. So I'll explain each one at a time - I did have another thread relating to this very same query but I thought it was time to update where I am with the query because at the moment I feel like I am getting nowhere!

The query I have basically searches through an items_ordered table through each product and checks to see whether the item is VATable or not. This is not where I have the problem though. Where I am really having the first problem is when I am trying to use the IF function to check if the TOTAL of an order is over £300. IF it is then I multiply it my 0.95 (i.e. 5% off). With the query below I get no errors but neither do I get the desired result. It's as though it couldn't even see it. =....

Date Range :: Month, Year And Date In Separate Columns
I have a database where the date is stored in 3 different collums month, day, year. A am trying to retrieve data by a date range something like "1-1-2005" - "1-1-2007" or something but had quite some difficulty in doing it but I found a way and I am not sure that it is the best way but it appears to work well. Let me know what you think.

"SELECT * FROM database " +
"WHERE datey*365+DAYOFYEAR(CONCAT(datey, '-', datem, '-', dated)) " +
"BETWEEN " + StartDate + " AND " +
"EndDate + " " +
"ORDER BY datey, datem, dated;"

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?

Output Multiple Records From Start Date To End Date?
Firstly I'm using MySQL 5 on Win2003.

I have a DB table that has multple columns, but the 2 columns I am interested in are DATE_START and DATE_END. So I'll have many records in the DB and the values in these fields will be anything like:

DATE_START=2006-10-23
DATE_END=2006-10-26

Or if its a 1 day thing it will be sumin like:

DATE_START=2006-10-23
DATE_END=2006-10-23

Is there anyway I can output multiple records from the DB for that one record between those dates? For example, the first record above would output:

TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-23
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-24
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-25
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-26

So basically I get a loop of all dates between the start and end date?

Before anyone asks, no I can't loop through this in the code! I have a calendar, and all the dates are created and I just need to populate these dates with the records... and I won't go into detail, but without querying every day, this is the best way by far to do it... just need to know if it can be done?

Passing Date Via Form For Mysql Date Type
I've created a database for tracking our paper inventory. Basically when an individual takes paper, or envelopes the quantity is entered into the database, along with some other items. This all works great.

I also have two fields that use the "Date" and "Time" types for holding the date and time of the initial transaction.

I've created a seperate php script that we will use for our "end of month" reports. The script goes through and adds up the cost of each "purchase" between a specified time frame (1 may thru 31 may for example).

This script works for me as long as I perform my query with my condition formated as such:

Latest Date Entry + Future Date
My requirement is data to be added to database depending on dates. Like If the user wants to add data for the next 10 days,the data should be added with a corresponding column containing the next 10 days' dates.

Then if he logs in tomorrow and wishes to add data for another 100 days,it should find the last date added and then add data with the next 100 dates starting from that date.

Also I would want to display these dates to the user.So can you suggest which type to be used for database field and also the date functions(mysql as well as php) to be achieved.

Let me put it more clearly.

"select the last date(which might be future dates) entered in the database";

If the date is Oct10 and the user wants to add entries for Oct 11,12 13

"insert into table values('data','oct11')"
......
......
likewise for Oct12 and 13

The format I need is just year,month and day.No time is required.

Select Date Date Functions
i do very elementary sql and am having trouble with SELECT

year_id (int)
year_name (var) ex:RAT
year_starts (date) ex: 1917-01-23
year_ends (date) ex: 1918-02-10

so when i want to find out what year somebody was born ($birthdate), i wanted the database to do something like:

"SELECT * FROM year WHERE year.year_starts >= $birthdate AND year.year_end <= $birthdate"

I can get it to select from either year.year_starts >= $birthdate (alone) or year.year_end <= $birthdate
