[PHP-DB] WHERE mydatestamp '2003-08-22 13:13:13'
Hey All- I'm trying to find things in my database that are greater then Now(), but the date is stored in a blob (don't ask, I know :-0). Is there a way I can do that comparison to find things that are in the future? Thanks, Matt -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

From: Matt Babineau [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm trying to find things in my database that are greater then Now(), but the date is stored in a blob (don't ask, I know :-0). Is there a way I can do that comparison to find things that are in the future? Option 1: Make a second column of DATETIME and UPDATE Table SET datetime_column = blob_column and then drive on... Option 2: Use the CAST() function... SELECT * FROM Table WHERE CAST(blob_column AS DATETIME) NOW() Option 3: SELECT * FROM Table WHERE UNIX_TIMESTAMP(blob_column) UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()) I'm sure there are more... ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
