Current Timestamp
I need to write a technical document for a testing procedure.
one of the steps is to have someone run a query wich will update a specific feild to the current timestamp. I know there is a function in MySQL that does this but im not sure how to use it in a query.
does anyone have a simple way to do this?
update host_users set last_updated = 'current timestamp here' where uname = 'username'

Inserting Current Unix Timestamp
I am working on coding a query to generate a phpBB useraccount in the mySQL database. INSERT INTO kylebt_Forums.phpbb_users SET `username` = '%username%', `user_password`=MD5('%password%'), `user_email`='%email%', `user_regdate`='' The user_regdate field is giving me problems as far as accepting the 10-digit unix_timestamp(); Apparently phpBB reads the PHP command time() however I am not sure how I need to implement this in the above code to have the timestamp show up correctly in the mySQL table. Currently, the user_regdate is showing up as the default value of '0'

Default Current Timestamp Issues
Using MySQL 4.1.7. I have a sole TIMESTAMP column in the table: insert_date TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, Looking at the timestamp docs, a query with NULL or empty, should cause the column to use the current time for its default value, but is not automatically updated. However, putting NULL or simply leaving blank in an INSERT query, gives 01/01/0001. Any ideas?

Im stuck with a sql query. Basically I have a db that stored a timestamp off everyone who has a successful login. I want to be able to count all the people who have logged into today? How do I do that? I thought the following would work but it didn't: SELECT count(date) FROM nn_users_logs WHERE date = CURREN_TIMESTAMP

How To Get Prev And Next Row To Current One?
I have a table called "items" which has following structure and content: id | name ------------------------------------------ 131 | Item Name 1 129 | Item Name 2 128 | Item Name 3 130 | Item Name 4 id field is not auto increment field. The only information I have is: 1. Results must be sorted by name 2. I can fetch current item only by its name e.g "Item Name 3" 3. Can't use offset in this case, as I only know current row by it's name Is possible to get prev and next row with SQL query (sub-queries maybe?) when I know only 1 row?

Getting Current Date
I am using this to get the date and time to store in a mysql db: PHP $date = date("m.d.y"); $time = date("H:i:s"); The field types I am storing them in are date and time format. Is this the best way to do it? Or are there time stamps that mysql can use automatically?

Retrieve Current Orders
For example if i want to retrieve current orders that have overdue subscribtion payment, I'll add an index to order_id and subscriber_id... Am I on the right track? Or i should add an index to a field that is used in the WHERE clause.. FOR EXAMPLE (WHERE due_date < NOW()). Can I only add indexes to primary and foreign keys? If i add a foreign key to a field will it improve database performance?

Current Date Insert
Does MySQL support the CURRENT DATE reserved word? i.e. insert into mytable ( name ,MyDateColumn ) values ( 'FV' ,'CURRENT DATE') I keep getting 0000-00-00 inserted using the above format, current date without single quotes gets an error. I <*thought*> that was standard SQL, but perhaps DB2 has polluted my mind.

Previous, Current, And Next In One Query?
This situation has come up a couple times and I've wanted to know if there's a better way to do it. Given something unique (an ID number, a specific date/time, etc) I want to find the thing that comes before it and the one after it when sorted by something else. Oh, and the "something unique" isn't sequential - random intervals between each. Code: ....

Get Previous And Next ID Of Current Record
I want do create a "Previous" and a "Next" link, all I have is the ID of the current record. Is there a good way to get the previous and next id of a record with a single SQL Query? example: ID's: 4,10,7,9,13 I open my page and show all details from the record with the ID 7, now I want to create the links and I need the previous and the next ID, 10 and 9. I could make a query that returns only the ID's and loop through the recordset till i have my ID's but that's such an ugly solution, not to mention the performance issues.

Getting Current User Permissions
I'm on a shared host, but I'm looking for a "global" solution, since I'm writing an installer. I'm trying to get a list of the current user's permissions, I'm trying the user table, but no go. That's most likely blocked. I'm looking through commands, but nothing. Searching isn't turning up either. Is it just trial and error I guess, and catching the errors? What I want to do is to check if the user has the SELECT/INSERT/CREATE/DELETE/ALTER/UPDATE permissions, before proceeding.

Referencing Other Fields In Current Record?
I am trying to insert a new record in a table, where one of the fields should contain the value of the index of the record, like this : INSERT into mytable VALUES (default,'something',CONCAT('something',table_id)) where table_id should be the value inserted by the default in the first field. So this record would contain something like : 65 , something , something65

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.

DateDiff :: Difference In Days And Current Date
I need to work out the difference in days between values in the database and the current date. "No problem," thought I , "I'll just use the SQL DATEDIFF command." Heh! Well, the user interface I'm using didn't even recognise DATEDIFF as being a function, so I decided to visit the mySQL website. Their description of DATEDIFF is as follows: ------------------------ DATEDIFF(ARGUMENTS) TIMEDIFF(ARGUMENTS) [Rest of description to be added here] NEED EXAMPLE DATEDIFF() and TIMEDIFF() were added in MySQL 4.1.1. ------------------------
