If all you want is the current week then the query is simple:
SELECT * FROM orders where WEEK(orders.order_date) = WEEK(NOW())
The default is thje day starts on Sunday so the second value is not needed.
WEEK(NOW(),7) is equivalent to WEEK(NOW(),0) - the valid values are 0 - 6.
As for performa
ML,
trying to write some SQL that will give me records for the CURRENT WEEK.
Example, starting on a Sunday and going through Saturday.
This week it would be Dec 27 - Jan 2.
For the week of any date @d:
... WHERE order_date BETWEEN AddDate(@d, -DayOfWeek(@d)+1) AND
AddDate(@d, 7-DayOfWeek(@d
See:
http://gtowey.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-to-select-this-wednesday-or-other.html
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 index
