How To Set The Default For A Datetime Column To Curdate()
I'd like to set the default value for a datetime type column in a table to today's date. It seems I should be able to do this with the CURDATE() function.

I tried adding a call to the function in the default value field when creating the table's column, by when I save the table the default reverts to "0000-00-00 00:00:00"

I've done this in other RDMSs. How can I do it in MySQL?

Selecting A Date Range Using CURDATE()
When a user selects a page with the recordset I want it to list dates that
fall into a certain range, related to CURDATE(). The range fields are
start_date and end_date, which are both DATETIME column types.

Using BETWEEN won't work because it won't list a date that starts BEFORE
CURDATE() e.g.

If CURDATE() is 2005-08-10

Then an event that has a start_date of 2005-08-06 and an end_date of
2005-08-26 won't show in the list, even though the date range does fall into
the CURDATE() of 2005-08-10.

Date Range CURDATE() + 7 Days
I need to select data between two dates a table - this bit I can achieve no problem. However, my query is not that simple - the date rangeI need to select is always going to be between the current date and 7 days forward, i.e I want to select all data between and including the current date and 7 additional days. I presume I use the CURDATE() function to generate the current date, but how do I work out CURDATE + 7 days and then get the query to select all the data between and including those two dates?

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).

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?

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

Curdate() Is 0000-00-00 For New Entry
I have a web form that users submit information through and it gets stored in a MySQL table. I wanted to capture the "creation date" of the record. So, I do the following:

1) I connect to the database and ask for the curdate() assigning it to a variable.
2) Then I turn around and store the user input into the table along with the curdate() variable that I first retrieved.

However, I just noticed something while still testing this. If I drop/add the table, the first entry always retrieves a curdate() of 0000-00-00. And this is a issue as I later allow users to retrieve these records based upon their creation dates. So, the first one will be lost.

Why is the first record recording 0000-00-00? The table exists even without any data in it. And, how do I get around this?

Unusual Output From Curdate()

Date :: Select X Number Of Months Ahead Of Current Date
I am trying to query dates stored in my mysql database...
eg:

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...

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?
