Use Table Column Csv As Criteria For IN()
Currently, I am using two queries to determine the results, but I don't see a reason why it can't be combined in to a single query. My current query selects the column, then just plops that column into the second query that gets the results using products.id IN ($column).
Here's the query I thought would work, but it only matches the first item in the csv: .....

Extracting Data Within A Column That Satifies Certain Criteria
I have a recordset in which there is a column called 'FileName' which contains paths e.g. C:mySqlmySqlest.exe. I would like to select all records that have certain extensions e.g. all records that end with ".exe" or ".txt". How do I go about this? I wrote SELECT ... FROM...WHERE FileName like (*.exe), but it said I have an error in my syntax. I am using mySQL version 4.1.

Select Data From 1 Table Based On Criteria From Another Table
is it possible to select all the data in one table based on a criteria from another table? for instance i want to select all the therapist from massage_therapist WHERE massage_schedule.finish > 0. i don't want merged results. i just need to list all therapist based on the where criteria from a different table. these two tables have the therapist_id in common.

Sorting A Table According To User Criteria.
I was looking for a some kind of simple solution to this issue. The application requires that certain tables should be showed ordered by the user criteria, for example categories. the user will insert a new category and then he could move up or down the item to the position he wants to show it. In order to do this, I was thinking to add a column, let's call it 'sort_id' this column will save the position of the record. (this is the best i could come up with, I would love any suggestions). This might create some concurrency problems, but since this is an administration module, I don't think more than one would modify the same table at the same time. Anyway, I couldn't find an easy way to insert a new record in the table with the last position + 1.

Returning Rows In Left Table Based On Mutliple Criteria In Right
This is starting to get to me. I'm sure there's a simple way of handling what i'm trying to do, but someone might be able to help out quicker than spending another hour searching and testing for this. Here's the problem: Simplified tables: ARCADES ======= ID, name GAMES ====== ID, name ARCADES_GAMES ============= ID, arcade_iD Games_ID Straightforward enough so far right? I'm trying to get all arcades that have ALL games in a passed in set of game_id's. So for instance I might want all arcades that have the games 11 and 14, but it must have both those. I can do soemthing like... SELECT a.name FROM arcades a WHERE EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM arcades_games WHERE arcade_id=a.id AND game_id IN (11,14)) But that'll return all rows that match ANY of (11,14) rather than ALL of 11,14. It all comes down to the simple thing of getting rows in a table where all criteria from a list is met, but any advice on how i would do something like this?

Possible To Count The Criteria Met?
I don't know if this is possible, but if I write a query with a number of "OR" statements, is it possible to get a count of the criteria each row met? So, $query = "SELECT first_name, last_name, phone_number FROM contacts WHERE first_name = 'John' OR last_name = 'Doe' OR phone_number like '415%'; And then have: first_name| last_name | phone_number | # of criteria met John | Beep | 4155551212 | 2 Mary | Doe | 7075551212 | 1 Jane | Doe | 4155551212 | 2 John | Doe | 4155551212 | 3

Searching On Multiple Criteria
I'm building a calendar application and have created the appointment function that allows you to add appointments.I have a 'startTime' and 'endTime' field which allows me to set the duration of the appointment. What I'm not sure how to do is to search on the following criteria: 1) WHERE startTime > $endTime OR startTime < $startTime 2) AND (endTime NOT BETWEEN $startTime AND $endTime) (** this is the one I'm really having troubles with!) I'm not sure whether or not I can put those all in one query or whether I should create multiple queries.

Search Criteria In Join Clause (one To Many)
I've got a problem with a join clause. I have three tables: artikler, kategori and kategoriLink. The table artikler has an unique field called artikelID The table kategori has an unique field called kategoriID The table kategoriLink has an unique field called kategoriLinkID and two other fields called artikelID and kategoriID The following query returns 0 hits eventhough kategoriLink contains entries fulfilling both criterias in the select statement. SELECT artikler.* FROM artikler INNER JOIN kategoriLink ON (kategoriLink.artikelID = artikler.artikelID) WHERE kategoriLink.kategoriID = 4 AND kategoriLink.kategoriID = 1 Does anyone have a solution to this?

SQL Join - Ignore Value That Matches Certain Criteria
I have two tables, agreement and inventory. agreement table contains AgreementID, StartDate, EndDate, InventoryID. inventory table contains InventoryID and Description. I am using MySQL ver 3.23 so I can't do nested SELECT statements. Here's some sample data: inventory ------------ 1, Honda Civic 2, Mazda 626 3, Toyota Camry agreement --------------- 1, 2004-11-02, 2004-11-30, 1 2, 2004-11-12, 2004-11-16, 2 3, 2004-12-05, 2004-12-07, 1 Problem: Given a date, getting a list of InventoryID that tells what cars are available for that date. I am not sure if this problem is solvable using a single query in MySQL ver 3.23. I came up with the following query, however, from above sample data, this query returns InventoryID's 1 and 3. It return's 1 because the query does not filter out record # 3 from the agreement table. Code:

Sql Failed To Return Results For Simple Criteria

Deleting Rows That Meet Criteria Involving Two Tables
I need to delete all rows from Table1 for which some criteria also involving Table2 are met. I tried something like DELETE FROM Table1 WHERE id in ( SELECT id from Table1, Table2 WHERE Table1.this = Table2.that). Unfortunately this gives me an error suggesting that I can't modify a table that's in the subquery. I have a workaround involving a temporary table but would prefer a one-shot query to achieve this result.

Finding Column Values Present In One Table, But Not In Another Table
have two tables, 'widgets' and 'widget_cats'. The primary key for widgets is 'widget.widget_id' and the key for widget_cats is a two-column key, 'widget_cats.widget_id,widget_cats.cat_id'. A particular widget_id can have more than one category, and so be present multiple times in the widget_cats table. I'm looking to find the widget_id's of ids that are present in the widget_cats table, but ont in the widgets table. For instance say the pair '515,A98' is in the widget_cats table, but '515' is not present in the widgets table. I'd like '515' to be among the values returned.

Another Column Or Another Table?
I have a table which will typically have approximately 3000 rows. When displaying the data on a webpage I want to display some of the rows in a different format based upon the data. For example, I may have 3000 items and I might want to change the display format for only 12 of those items. My options are to have an additional column in the main table which will just be a tinyint(1), so basically a boolean to say that item needs treating differently. Or I can have another table to store the items id and so flagging it for different display. I also need to do the same for highlighting certain items so again I'd either need a another column with a boolean or a third table to store the item id. Its going to be far easier from a coding and management point of view to have 2 extra columns with a boolean value. But is it better to have 2 extra tables?

Can I: Export Column, Optimize & Fill New Column With Value To Original Column?
I have a database with over 40,000 rows and 28 columns (learned how to import large files by changing php.ini!). Using Excel, I am able to: (A) copy and paste original column (e.g., SIZE_TEXT) (B) ALONG with each records' UNIQUE_KEY, (C) sort SIZE_TEXT column, (D) filter for unique values, (E) fill new column with its SIZE_TEXT__KEY, and then (F) import the new SIZE_TEXT_KEY value into the database by creating a new column or pasting over the columns original value. However, I think this can be performed, with less potential for error, using phpMyAdmin, but I haven't found anything demonstrating how to perform these actions. I searched the terms optimization and normalization. I am hoping one can use phpMyAdmin to: 1) create a new table with export column of the original table (SIZE_TEXT_TABLE), 2) sort new table for duplicates and show only unique values, then 3) import the column results into each Unique Records original column (SIZE_TEXT) 4) link new column values to Foreign Key (the Parent Table's SIZE_TEXT_KEY)

Column And Table Names
i have a large problem , my hosting wont give me access to my phpmyadmin and so I cant backup my database, So I looked to back it up using php which was complicated and confusing, so I decided before they cut me off completely I would write a sql statement to list all table names and then all table columns in each table. I dont mind writing each script seperately. i.e. list all table names, then write a script to view names of the column for each table. I only have 20 tables so no big deal, getting really desperate. If someone could either post a script they have I can copy and customise, or point me in a direction I would appreciate that. Im no idiot at sql, just have never had to do this before and am unsure how to go about it.

Table With Single Column
I'm dealing with an online store in which the "catalog" table is already filled with data and I don't want to mess with it. But I need to allow items to be marked as "tax exempt". I'm thinking the easiest way to do this is to just create another table called "taxExempt" with a single column called "sku", which is the unique ID for any given item.For some reason it strikes me as silly to create a table with just one column. Is this generally an ok thing to do, or is there a better way to approach this?

Column Derived From Another In Same Table
Is there a way to have one column have its data derived from another one? I have a table with a `datetime` and I want just DATE(`datetime`) for each of them. At the moment, I'm just running DATE(`datetime`) on the output of my query, but that seems a little wasteful when there the output is large. Furthermore, nearly all (but not all) my queries use the DATE(`datetime`) rather than the full `datetime`. I guess I'm looking for something like in a spreadsheet, where the element is defined as a forumla of another element(s), and so I can update one and the other would automatically update. Such results could be preprocessed and cached by the server, and everything would run much more quickly. I guess I can make a view (if my server wasn't on v4), but that would then require a join and, since that's done pre-query, it's expensive since the view's select is done for every row of the table.

Copying One Column From One Table To Another
I have a table, let's call it Foo, with a column of type int(11), let's call it Crud. I want to overwrite Foo.Crud with Bar.Var. Var is also type int(11), and happens to contain 1's and 2's. Of course I did my googling like a good newbie and got the following: update Foo,Bar set Foo.Crud = Bar.Var; This ran without error, but when I check it by running... SELECT COUNT( * ) AS Rows, Crud FROM Foo GROUP BY Crud ORDER BY Crud; +------+------+ | Rows | Crud | +------+------+ | 8801 | 1 | +------+------+ And it's NOT because Bar.Var only contains 1's. It contains 1's and 2's! SELECT COUNT( * ) AS Rows, Var FROM Bar GROUP BY Var ORDER BY Var; +------+------+ | Rows | Var | +------+------+ | 5043 | 1 | | 3758 | 2 | +------+------+........

Comments Per Each Table Column
I see in phpmyadmin and MySql's very own Browsing tool there is a comment column associated with each column within a table. Obviously this is ideal for labeling your primary key, or even identifying strange (short formed) column names. But how exactly do you get it so that you can input data in this comment area? I understand how to add comments to the tables (themselves) but not to the individual columns.
