Using a select statement, how does one select all records that have a date one day less than the current date? Searching the archives and I can't seem to find the answer......
Our database has these fields:
EMAIL, AMOUNT, ID, DATE
The date is in format 00/00/0000
If your dates were stored in a DATE column, you could write your query like this:
... WHERE DATE = DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 1 DAY)
However, if your dates are in 00/00/0000, then I suppose they are stored in a string column. In this case, you'll have to figure out what yesterday's date is, then convert it to a string in the same format your "dates" are stored so that you can perform the comparison.
Is there some reason you're not storing your "dates" in a DATE column?
