Query to return DateTime values after a set date?

  • Hi I have a MySQL query below.

    I needed to modify it so it returned only results from a set date/time, or even better from the current Date/time onwards

    Any help on this? I don't look at SQL at all, and have spent time working on the query I have already! Appologies if this is in the wrong forum.

    Many Thanks

    Select

    Resources.DisplayName,

    Bookings.StartTime,

    Bookings.EndTime,

    Users.LoginName

    From

    Bookings Inner Join

    Users On Bookings.BookedBy = Users.UserID And Bookings.BookedFor =

    Users.UserID Inner Join

    Resources On Bookings.ResourceID = Resources.ResourceID

    Where

    Resources.DisplayName = 'PCWORK1'

    DisplayNameStartTimeEndTimeLoginName

    PCWORK109/01/2013 22:00:0009/01/2013 22:15:00user1

    PCWORK109/01/2013 22:15:0009/01/2013 22:30:00user2

  • Hi and welcome to SSC!!! This is a sql server forum and not a MySql so the help you get may be somewhat different. The basics are the same though and what you are doing should be the same in either database.

    I needed to modify it so it returned only results from a set date/time, or even better from the current Date/time onwards

    Not really sure what you mean here. Do you want rows that have a starttime greater than some date?

    I will make that assumption. All you have to do is add an additional predicate to your where clause.

    and starttime > [some date]

  • It should be fairly straight forward, this query will return all rows where the Startdate is greater than or equal to the current datetime

    Select

    Resources.DisplayName,

    Bookings.StartTime,

    Bookings.EndTime,

    Users.LoginName

    From

    Bookings

    Inner Join Users

    On Bookings.BookedBy = Users.UserID And Bookings.BookedFor =Users.UserID

    Inner Join Resources

    On Bookings.ResourceID = Resources.ResourceID

    Where

    Resources.DisplayName = 'PCWORK1'

    and Bookings.StartTime>=GetDate()

    This code will actully return 0 rows, as there are no start times that are greater than the current time.

    If you wanted you could use a paramater instead of the GetDate(), to filter more dynamically, this should return all rows where the Starttime is >= 2nd Jan 2013 @ 1pm

    Delcare @DateParameter DateTime

    Set @DateParameter='02-Jan-2013 13:00:00.000'

    Select

    Resources.DisplayName,

    Bookings.StartTime,

    Bookings.EndTime,

    Users.LoginName

    From

    Bookings

    Inner Join Users

    On Bookings.BookedBy = Users.UserID And Bookings.BookedFor =Users.UserID

    Inner Join Resources

    On Bookings.ResourceID = Resources.ResourceID

    Where

    Resources.DisplayName = 'PCWORK1'

    and StartTime)>=@DateParameter

  • Thanks for your replies (Sean and Jason)

    Especially to Jason - 😀

    adding and Bookings.EndTime>=GetDate() was what I was looking for!

    The data is from a pc booking system for future bookings, and extracting data for the people who do the timetables to say pcs are booked out

    It's so easy when you know how!

    Thanks again, Sukh

  • Glad to help,
