My experience with doing data warehousing in MySQL was that when all you need is day granularity, you are much better off having a de-normalized 'days_since_epoch' column or a date dimension table with a column like that. Then your date math becomes simple integer comparisons which are much faster. - Perrin -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
