HI ! First of all , thnx a lot for the attention. The EXACT query i need is . assume IN and OUT as date colums in the format "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS " I need my query to return: "How many seconds are there between IN and OUT but outside the period 8:00 to 20:00" For example : IN ="2001-10-20 02:30:00" OUT = "2001-10-20 04:00:00" should return 90 (mins) IN ="2001-10-20 07:30:00" OUT = "2001-10-20 15:00:00" should return 30 (mins) IN ="2001-10-20 23:30:00" OUT = "2001-10-21 00:30:00" should return 60 (mins) IN ="2001-10-20 14:00:00" OUT = "2001-10-21 00:30:00" should return 270 (mins)
Did i made myself clear ? is it possible to be done with mysql ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
