SELECT DATE_ADD(expiredate, INTERVAL 17 DAYS) http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/date-and-time-functions.html
""Peter Lauri"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Best group member, I have a field called expiredate of type 'date'. I would like to add 17 days to the expiredate without doing any scripting, is that possible? Example: Expiredate is 2005-11-30 and I want to extend the expiredate with 17 days. Is there any function in MySQL that adds days to a date? A solution for this would be to write a PHP script that takes the date and adds 17 days to it (checking month overlap and stuff), but I want to skip scripting if there is an solution within MySQL that does it for me. /Peter -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
