I Need To Convert Date Type To String Type
I need to retrieve a Date type data from the database and present the data in my GUI as a String type.
I've tried like this :
ResultSet rs;
Date data;
data = (String)rs.getDate("ColumnName");
gui_label.setText(data);
but they say inconvertible types...
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.

What's The Best Way To Convert A Data Type?
I have a column of type Text in a table, but when my client software (C# .NET application) is calling the SELECT statement, it doesn't seem to know how to handle Text. What's the best way to convert the column to a Char or something like that in the SELECT statement? I tried CAST(column_name AS CHAR) but it doesn't seem to be actually casting if more than one record is returned (works fine for just one record though). Any ideas?

Convert Nvarchar(max) To Mysql Data Type
-I've migrated my mssql database to mysql using SQLWays. In my stored procedures I use several variables which are supposed to hold a great amount of data so I declared them in mssql as nvarchar(max), however in mysql they are migrated as NATIONAL VARCHAR(4000), which obviously limits them to hold up to 4000 characters, so my code doesn't work as I need it to. What I need to know is the right data type to use so that I can achieve the great amount of data storage.

Convert Table Type From InnoDB To MyISAM
I've writing my site's search engine - and it currently used InnoDB for two of the tables that I need to search - primarily the assets table. This table has a couple of FKs. Now I'm thinking that using FULL TEXT indexes might be the better way to search these tables - but I can't switch them to MyISAM without getting an error : cannot delete or update a parent row - foreign key constraint fails. The interesting thing is that I had another table with a foreign key that I was able to switch to MyISAM. So, is the FULL TEXT search worth it? Is this really the best way for writing my advanced search engine. I think that it probably is. However, I can't convert my table to MyISAM. So, what's the work around for this problem?

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:

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?

%TYPE
Is it possible in MySQL to use the %TYPE keyword as in Oracle? Declaring variables in stored procedures would be so much easier if I could just use some_table.some_column%TYPE rather than having to go check out what the column type is (and then have to change the variable type if the column type ever needs to change). Also, does MySQL have the ability to store an entire row as a variable? ie. in Oracle you could do something like: my_row some_table%ROWTYPE; SELECT * INTO my_row FROM some_table WHERE rownum = 1; dbms_output.put_line(my_row.some_column); I've RTFM'd but searching for "TYPE" doesn't really help in such large documentation.

Convert Hexadecimal String To Unsigned Integer?
How can I convert a string value containing a representation of a hexadecimal number to an unsigned integer? For example, given the string '00000ff', I want to convert this to unsigned integer = 255. In other words, if I create a hex string value from an integer using: lpad(hex(255),7,'0') results in string value '00000ff'; How can I unconvert this string value back to the integer value? UNHEX does not seem to work? The following function correctly converts a hex number to an unsigned integer: select cast(0x00000ff as unsigned) /* results in 255 */ However, I can not pass this same function a string: select cast('0x00000ff' as unsigned) /* syntax error */ select cast('00000ff' as unsigned) /* results in zero) */ I've also tried UNHEX without success: select unhex('00000ff') /* seems not to return anything */ select cast(unhex('00000ff') as unsigned) /* returns zero */ provoide example for this.

InnoDB Type
I'm using mySQL 4.0.20, interfacing it with phpMyAdmin 2.5.6. I usually set tables up with a "default" type, which I believe is myISAM (or whatever that one is.) But I decided to go with InnoDB for the stability and accuracy. Noticed something on tables in that format I've never noticed in the other format: tbl_product 1 InnoDB - Master Product Table; InnoDB free: 4096 kB tbl_users 1 InnoDB - User Management Table; InnoDB free: 4096 kB What's the meaning of "free: 4096 kB"? It sounds as though InnoDB sets up some 4MB maximum size for the table. Is that so? If so, is there a way to change it? I anticipate a couple of my tables are going to end up eventually being VERY large.

Different Index Type
When you create a table, and give it an auto-incremented unsigned integer, you will be limiting the capacity of the table to the capacity of the data type. My question is, if there is an implementation of any other data type for indexes in MySQL, like for example, a GUID data type (vitually unlimited), and what are the costs in performance of implementing this type of indexes.
