Pull All Records
if it were possible to write a statement in SQL where one could select several fields from a table and then limit the records returned by only displaying those where, say, FieldA (a varchar) contains a given short string which could be only a part of the field's contents. As long as a record has this short string in Field A, it should be included in the resulting set of records.Something like this:
SELECT FieldA, FieldB, FieldC
FROM TABLE Table1
WHERE FieldA *contains string*
Is there anything in SQL that could examine the contents of a field for a partial string, and then return the records that have that partial string in that field?

Can Input Japanese, Can't Pull It Out
I figured out how to store Japanese characters by setting the collation of a particular field to utf8_bin. I can input Japanese characters, and I can see them just fine under PHPMyAdmin. The problem is that when I execute a query and print them to a web page, all I get is question marks instead of Japanese characters. This is while using the same browser that allows PHPmyAdmin to display the characters correctly. I added the following metadata to the <head> portion of the document but it didn't help: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

Can someone please give me guidance on how i can get a page with all the hosting plans on please?, alternatively i am willing to pay somebody for doing this on my behalf

Pull Related Info Using Subqueries
I'm creating a tool to browse a database of movie listings. The browser pulls up 25 results at a time, and you can page through them using 'Next' and 'Prev' tools. Pretty basic stuff. Here are my tables: movies directors comments movies_directors movies_comments etc... (primary key is movies.id) But here's where I'm stuck: for each film, I need to pull the movie info in 'movies', plus any related data from other tables, like this: The Lord of the Rings | Peter Jackson | 3 comments Episode II | George Lucas | 0 comments Indiana Jones | Steven Spielberg | 15 comments I seem to run into problems when I try to join info from all of these related tables. If there's a match, great. But, if not (like a movie with no comments), the movie is excluded from the result set. I've tried all sorts of SQL queries to make this work, but nothing seems to do the trick. SO, HERE'S MY QUESTION, IS THERE ANY WAY TO DO THIS QUERY WITHOUT SUBQUERIES/MYSQL 4.0? Or would the best approach be to use PHP to do all the subquery lookups?

Result Pull And Rating Sort
I have two databases. What I would like to happen is when I have a summary of products, I would like the query to pull the info from the product table and based on the id from that table cross reference with the reviews for that particular product and calculates all the reviews for that product into a single percentage. So when I access the assoc array from PHP I would like to see : Array(Array(['id'] => '2', ['prod_name'] => 'gummy bears', ['rating'] => '72'), Array(['id'] => '57', ['prod_name'] => 'socks', ['rating'] => '52')).

How To Pull Data From Multiple Tables
I have a db, with several tables in it, I have now reached to the point where I need to pull data from several tables. What is the best way to do this? Should I put a column in each table, and then insert a unique key in all of them at the time the record(row) is being created? If this is the way to do it, when I am putting the unique key in each table would I just do an insert in each of the tables?

Pull Data From Multiple Tables
Can you pull data from 2 tables in the same database onto the same page? What about more than 2 tables? Here is my dilema: I currently have a database with 1 table, and a ton of rows. The information is property information, and each property has multiple empty suites. As of now, I have columns for Building Name, Address, and then columns for Unit Type A (for the first unit), Rent A, Type B, Rent B, etc.... I was wondering if I would be able to put the listings we have into thier own property table, and then one bigger table of all the properties individual information. Keep in mind I need to call all tables together on my portfolio pages, so I would be connecting to quite a few tables at once. Or my other option I was thinking about was to just have 2 tables: 1 Buildings info, and 1 units info. Which of these would you do, or how would you organize this data.

Pull Info From One Database To Save In A Session To Push To A Different DB
I'm building a dynamic site that has 3 data bases. One DB contains all of my store info ID#, Name, Address, Phone. Another DB contains member info ID, Name, address, email,phone,etc... The 3rd DB Tracks when a user logs in and logs out at a store. This DB has the following columns Store ID, Member ID, log in time,log out time, time in store. The stores log in in the morning that starts a session-I need the session to pull the store's info ID#, Name,etc... so when a user logs in, in the store. The login page inserts the store ID, Store name, and user ID into the 3rd DB. There are a lot of stores how do I get the store variables to be inserted into the DB?

Pull Data From 2 Database Tables Into 1 Table On My Site.
I got 2 tables: a dev_tasks and a task_history table. The task table has to record information about the task I am working on AND the history table is for the task history logs. I am trying to display info from both tables into 1 table on my site. Most of the info will come from the dev_tasks table BUT i want to dedicate on column of the displayed info for the latest log made to the task_history table. The common column to both tables is the 'taskid' column. What would the query look like to pull the info from both tables, knowing that the taskid is common to both and that I want to display the last log per tasks from the task_history table?

Trying To Pull Id, Count And Title But Lose Rows When I Add Extra Join
i'm trying to extract some information from my database, the query being PHP SELECT grps_c.catid, grps_c.title, COUNT(grps.groupid) AS COUNT FROM grps RIGHT JOIN grps_category grps_c ON (grps_c.catid = grps.catid) GROUP BY grps_c.catid ORDER BY grps_c.title which works fine. however some of the groups (grps.groupid) are hidden and i don't want to count them, so my thinking was add PHP LEFT JOIN grps_setting grps_s ON (grps_s.groupid = grps.groupid AND grps_s.hidden_group != Ƈ') however adding that removes the rows that have a 'count' or NULL or Zero.

Selecting Records Belonging To Multiple Records Through Join Table
I have is 3 tables, 'categories', 'levels' and 'categories_levels', the 'categories_levels' table is a join table, with the `id`, `category_id` and `level_id` fields. Categories can belong to many different levels, so records in the join table might look like this (assuming that the category has an ID of 5) id, category_id, level_id 1, 5, 1 2, 5, 2 3, 5, 3 So you can see that category 5 belongs to 3 different levels (1, 2, and 3). On a web page, I've got a multiple select box, which allows a user to filter the categories depending on which levels they belong to. What I need a query to do is use that join table to find all categories which belong to the selected levels. Now for the tricky bit. Only the categories which belong to every single selected level should be displayed. So in the example above, if I select level 1, then category 5 will be displayed, but if I select levels 1 and 4, then category 5 should not be displayed, because although it does belong to level 1, it doesn't belong to level 4 as well.

All Records From Table A - All Records From Table B - Join Alike Records
I am by no means a SQl Jedi as will be apparent by my question, but I can usually figure out a select statement on my own. I have one today though that really has me stumped. I am working in MySQlL 5. In My first select statement I get all my records from Table B SELECT `table_A`.`ITEM`, `table_A`.`DECSCRIPTION`, `table_A`.`UM`, `table_A`.`PHASE`, `table_B`.`Qty`, `table_B`.`Calc` as calculated FROM `table_A` Inner Join `table_B` ON `req_itemlist`.`ITEM` = `table_B`.`ItemID` In my second statement I get my records that match in this case phase 401 in Table B and all my Table A records for phase 401. SELECT `table_A`.`ITEM`, `table_A`.`DECSCRIPTION`, `table_A`.`UM`, `table_A`.`PHASE`, `table_B`.`Qty`, `table_B`.`Calc` as calculated FROM `table_A` Left Outer Join `table_B` ON `req_itemlist`.`ITEM` = `table_B`.`ItemID` Where table_A.PHASE In ('401' ) Now I need to combine the Data of both recordsets. I need EVERYTHING in Table B, but I also need All Table A records that match the phase selection.... Can I write this one query or do I need to use a Temp table?

10.000.000 Records
I've got some experience building PHP/MySQL websites, but the databases in these websites never contained more than a couple of thousand records. Now I've been asked to build a website with a database containing a table with roughly 10 million records.This amount of records gives me the creeps, to tell you the truth. It's simple records, containing just 2 columns. The only thing a script would have to do is check wether a code is in the database or not. Can I use standard PHP scripting methods and SQL queries, or does this amount of records demand a totally different approach? I can imagine an application getting very slow when it has to work with a huge recordset like this. What do I have to consider before I decide to build this site (or not)?

Can't See Old Records
I really don't know much about mysql. We have an hardware device performing bandwidht management which we didn't even know it is using mysql until it was broken down. After we solved the problem, we saw that the operationg system running in the device is linux (and old version) and the database is mysql. The problem is that we can't see the old data eventhough when I view the binary ISD file I can see the whole data including the olds. But the management program doesn't show the old data. When I reenter new definitions from the management program, I can see that they are written into the ISD files. ISD files contains both old and new records but I can see the only new files. Does that mean the index files are curropted? If so, How can I recreate indexes or recover them?
