Thanks in advance Not quite sure what it means to get the difference between two dates in months or hours, but mysql does have a DATEDIFF function: DATEDIFF(expr,expr2) DATEDIFF() returns the number of days between the start date expr and the end date expr2. expr and expr2 are date or date-and-time expressions. Only the date parts of the values are used in the calculation.
