Ignore my previous post..

SELECT ... FROM table WHERE  MONTH(datecolumm)=MONTH(NOW()) AND
DAYOFMONTH(datecolumn)=DAYOFMONTH(NOW());

Lessons learned in the last few days = Never post messages right before or
on the project implementation day.
Thanks Keith for pointing that out...

Do you have a lot of newborn users at your place?

The original poster might also be interested in a query like

    SELECT RIGHT(birthdate, 5), last_name, first_name
    FROM users
    ORDER BY RIGHT(birthdate, 5), last_name, first_name

assuming birthdate is a DATE column.  That should give a list of
birthdays for all users.
