just calculate the two dates, and use WHERE order_date BETWEEN (calculated start date) AND (calculated end date) This avoids using functions on the actual column when possible, since that will prevent using indexes to find your query results.

Example, starting on a Sunday and going through Saturday. This week it would be Dec 27 - Jan 2. I am doing this so I can write a query that will show orders that are placed during the current week. Here is what I have, but this is showing from today for the next seven days. SELECT * FROM orders WHERE WEEK(NOW(), 7) = WEEK(orders.order_date, 7) AND DATEDIFF(NOW(),orders.order_date) < 7; Would anyone have any advice? -Jason -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=gto...@ffn.com This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
