Question

I have several in data and out date mysql “datetime” values. I need to return total count from given time period.

Ex:

In time                Out Time
2012-02-02 10:00       2012-02-02 12:00
2012-02-02 09:00       2012-02-02 14:00
2012-02-02 10:00       2012-02-02 11:00

I need to get total as 3 from 2012-02-02 10:00 to 2012-02-02 11:00

Answer 1

write this query

select count(*) from table name where `In time` <= '2012-02-02 10:00' and `Out Time` >= '2012-02-02 11:00'

it will give you count 3
