Date Type Default Value
I would to give the CURDATE() value to a date field as null value. I wrote:
sql_fecha` date NOT NULL default 'CURDATE()',
and I get :
Error #1067 - Invalid default value for sql_fecha
I take off the () and got the same result. I also cast the expression as :
CAST( CURDATE() AS DATE) and the same error.

Default For The Type SET
I've created a database with a field of the type SET. Something like this: SET('choice1','choice2','choice3'). The default choice is the empty ('') string. Do I have to also define the empty string in the set like this SET('choice1','choice2','choice3','') or is this not necessary?

Can someone teach me the way so that I can retrieve Date type data from the database and present it in the GUI as a String type.

Default Date Format And Date Stamping
1.) If possible, change the default date format from YYYY-MM-DD to MM-DD-YYYY. 2.) Auto "date stamp" a newly created record (e.g. I have a field called "date_posted" and would like that field to be auto-filled with the date upon INSERT). I'm using phpMyAdmin and MySQL version 5.1.30.

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:

Default Value On Date Column
Using MySQL control center, I created a MySQL database table with a column of Date type. It always give the a Default value (0000-00-00) even null is allowed. I tried remove the default value and it comes back by itself. So if I don't supply a value when insert, the default is used. Query IS NOT NULL will not exclude this record. Now, In VB (with ADO/MyOLEDB), I did the exact query trying to filter out the null record. But I still get the record just like in Control Center. BUT, the value on this column is "NULL". How can I leave the Date field as null if no value is supplied?

Form Default Date
I have a MYSql database with an ASP VB form. I set up a text field and set the default value as: <%=date()%> but when I click the button to insert the record it tells me to check the sql error and lists my date field. My MySQL date type is date, not datetime. I am using Dreamweaver MX. How do I set the default date so that it inserts correctly into mysql? Apparently I can't set the default value for the date field in the database structure because I link with an odbc driver.

Not Able Give Default Value For DATE Field
I would like to specify a default value for "DATE" datatype as a system date. But i could find from the help tutorial, "default value cannot be added for a DATE datatype". But i could specify in Oracle. I have found below statment from the help documents. "The DEFAULT value clause in a data type specification indicates a default value for a column. With one exception, the default value must be a constant; it cannot be a function or an expression. This means, for example, that you cannot set the default for a date column to be the value of a function such as NOW() or CURRENT_DATE. The exception is that you can specify CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the default for a TIMESTAMP column." Why cant we use a functions or variable values in date? Is this the limitation or didnot explore this functionality yet? Is this limitation applicable for only DATE type or any other datatypes? I have such a situation to use this "default" feature for a date column with value as system date. is there a way to do that?

DATE / TIMESTAMP Default Values
im is having problems with auto inserting date in my table. I dont know what is the default value i will set if column type to DATE. It was succesful though if is use the TIMESTAMP type in the column and is using CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the dafault value. mysql automatically inserts the current date and time to the database everytime a new record is inserted. The problem with using TIMESTAMP is that i only want the date and not the additional time. Is there a default value I can use for the DATE function instead of using TIMESTAMP? I already tried NOW(), CURDATE(), CURRENT_DATE() to no avail

Most Efficient Date Field Type For Selects?
I have searched this forum seeking the answer to this question, to no avail. I am making an events diary that will have a lot of entries. Entries will be entered in all kinds of order, including multiple events spanning a year or so. Even multiple events of the same type will be individual entries. (e.g. weekly chess club meeting every weds at 7pm will be 52 entries) My question is : Which is the best format to store dates? Native mysql date type Integer timestamp A.n.other? I suppose a worst case scenario is imagine I want to generate a calendar for July (31 days) and I want to show how many events there are for each day. 1st July (13 events) 2nd July (22 events) and so on ... it is possible that any given day could have up to 100 entries. What in your opinion is the best column type to use and ss there any kind of Indexing I can use to speed up select by dates? Or any other tip or trick you'd be prepared to share with me?

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;" NOTE: StartDate and EndDate use the same formula of (year*365)+dayofyear

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?

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.
