Question

I have a date being passed to my script in the format as yyyy-mm-dd.

I’m trying to grab all journal entries that fall within the month and year provided.

Should I just do this, where yyyy-mm is the date provided?

SELECT * FROM table WHERE ts_date > yyyy-mm-01 AND ts_date < yyyy-mm-31

Seems like there might be a more efficient way of handling this.

Answer 1

I think you are looking for this:

-- Finds records from January
SELECT * FROM table WHERE MONTH(ts_date) = 1 AND YEAR(ts_date) = 2012;
