Try this:
echo "REPLACE INTO table_name (dr) VALUES ('0');" |
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u user -p password activity
or mysql -e "REPLACE INTO table_name (dr) VALUES ('0');" activity

Subject: Updating tables via cron
I tried to search the archives for this but I can't find it. (Not
saying
it isn't there just I could not find it.) I have a table that tracks
events on a monthly and daily basis. Currently I am resetting the
appropriate fields to 0 on a daily and monthly basis (not fun). Is there a
way to set a command in the cron table to do this for me
automatically? Here are the details.
db name: activity
daily field name: dr (needs to be reset to 0)
monthly field name: mr (same as above)
I know how to tell cron the date/time I want an event to trigger,
but I
don't know the syntax of the command to send. Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
David
