why this query gives me the wrong output although I am trying to print data between '01-May-2022' and '30-May-2022';
why is this query giving me apr data?
It appears that you are storing your dates as text. You should not be doing this, and the best long term fix is to make datee a proper date column. As a short term fix, you may use STR_TO_DATE:
SELECT datee
FROM customer_shopping_details_tbl
WHERE STR_TO_DATE(datee, '%d-%b-%Y') BETWEEN '2022-05-01' AND '2022-05-30';
Thank you all ....
I did a mistake while saving the date, I had saved the date in the string format. That is the reason that the query does not show proper output
What I learned/point to remember
-MySQL date format is yyyy-mm-dd
-Save your date in the form of date NOT IN String
go through the comments for the better idea
I have saved my data in the form of String so i have fired the following query and is working now
Good evening,
Maybe this could help:
SELECT login,datetime FROM log where datetime between
to_date(’01-jan-2004,’mm/dd/yyyy’) and
to_date(’21-jan-2004′,’mm/dd/yyy’)
order by datetime DESC;

Probably it's super simple but i've been stuck some hours on this.
I have a column called "Publish_Date" which is a varchar, but my date shows like this: 17.01.11 (year.day.month) and I want to convert it to a date (at this point, any date format it's ok).
Every time i tried to use "convert" or "cast" it gives me a syntax error or the data doesn't change or all the data in the column changes to "null" values.
I'd appreciate if you can help me.
Assuming your data is all greater than 2000 then you can add missing part of YEAR then cast it.
SELECT CAST(CONCAT('20', Publish_Date) AS DATETIME);
You can use STR_TO_DATE with the format %y.%m.%d since this is how your date value is stored
select
str_to_date(birth_date, '%y.%m.%d')
from
mytable
Here is an SQL Fiddle I created for this case
Asking for any ideas to convert this kind of date in SQL from May-15-2020 18:03 to 'yyyyMMddHHmiss' or 'yyyyMMdd'.
I am trying this query
select from_unixtime(unix_timestamp('May-15-2020 16:03', 'MM-dd-yyyy
HH:mi'), 'yyyyMMdd') from dual
but it wont work.
Use the right right function STR_TO_DATE, and use a format that matches your date rather than something scraped from a previous answer/blog.
Reference manuals of date and time functions are very useful for solving these basic problems.
Basically my date in MySql table looks like this
2001-04-16
The format is actually day-month-year. Unfortunately 20 is added to the date. So finally i should update this date. This should become
01-04-2016
How to update my all date format in my table
Don't change this in the database, change it when you need to display it. The ISO date format is what's used internally and should be kept that way, it's the most native, efficient format, and it sorts correctly.
You can select them out:
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(date_column, '%d-%m-%Y') FROM table_name
Using the DATE_FORMAT() function.
Even better is to do this in your application layer, whatever that is, using a date formatting function tuned to the user's locale.
If you've got a bunch of bad data in your database you need to convert, you can re-write it with the DATE_FORMAT() function to strip out the mistakes.
For example:
UPDATE table_name SET date_column=DATE_FORMAT('20%d-%m-%y', date_column)
For mysql, MySQL retrieves and displays DATE values in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format. so you can fetch date in whatever format you want from database, please see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/datetime.html for more info.
you can use DATE_FORMAT() function :
SELECT DATE_FORMAT('%d-%m-%Y', date) as desired_date FROM table_name where 1
I've got this as the select part of my query:
SELECT cast(cast(exp_channel_titles.edit_date as char(14)) as datetime) AS Edit_Date
That takes data from a db in this format 20130501092128 and returns it in this format 2013-05-01 09:21:28
I can only assume it is some kind of magic as i don't fully understand how this works tbh.
But, i need to change the format of the date that it spits out to this format: %d/%m/%Y %k:%i:%s
I can honestly say i have no idea how to do this in that query, i've tried adding it as a param to datetime (is that even a mysql function?!?) but no joy and many other poor attempts that i wont go into.
If anyone can help, i'd be hugely grateful!
MySql automatically converts 20130501092128 to a date and time field, even if it is a VARCHAR or a INT, and you can just use this:
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(exp_channel_titles.edit_date, '%d/%m/%Y %k:%i:%s')
Please see fiddle here.
You can change output format using DATE_FORMAT() function from MySQL. Here is the documentation post about it.
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_date-format
You can change the output format into whatever format you want, but if you recieve that data into an application, modifies it and return that data to server (editing a row for example). Remember to reformat it into a valid date for MySQL.
If you dont know how to do it, just have to do this into your query:
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(cast(cast(exp_channel_titles.edit_date as char(14))
as datetime), '%e/%m/%Y %k:%i:%s') AS Edit_Date
I am fetching the current date & time using NOW() in mysql. I want to convert the date value into a varchar and concat it with another string. How do I do it?
Use DATE_FORMAT()
SELECT
DATE_FORMAT(NOW(), '%d %m %Y') AS your_date;
This is super old, but I figured I'd add my 2c. DATE_FORMAT does indeed return a string, but I was looking for the CAST function, in the situation that I already had a datetime string in the database and needed to pattern match against it:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/cast-functions.html
In this case, you'd use:
CAST(date_value AS char)
This answers a slightly different question, but the question title seems ambiguous enough that this might help someone searching.
Try this:
concat(left(datefield,10),left(timefield,8))
10 char on date field based on full date yyyy-MM-dd.
8 char on time field based on full time hh:mm:ss.
It depends on the format you want it. normally you can use script above and you can concat another field or string as you want it.
Because actually date and time field tread as string if you read it. But of course you will got error while update or insert it.
