[PHP-DB] Help With An UPDATE Query Please
Hi, How can I update a column where the first letter begins with 'M' and adjust it so that column ends with 'M' instead. So something like 'UPDATE table SET column = 'xxxM' WHERE column = 'Mxxx'. I hope this explains what I am trying to achieve! Thanks -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DB] Help with an UPDATE query please
Hi, I have (among others) two DATE columns in a table; Booking_Date and Booking_Completion_Date. How can I run a query that updates Booking_Completion_Date to be 2 days after Booking_Date where Booking_Completion_Date is NULL?

Presuming you have the date in your PHP code you could simply add 172800 (seconds in 2 days) to the current value and insert it in the same way as you are doing with your current dates. If you post how you're inserting your dates, what format you're using and stuff like that then you'll probably get more concise help.

[PHP-DB] Help With Another UPDATE Query Please!
Hi, I am making some alterations to my Database. I have a table called projects and a table called Work_Types. Projects currently contains the name of the work type (Work_Type) but now I want to change this so it contains the Work_Type_ID, is it possible to update Projects with one query?

Re: [PHP-DB] Help With Another UPDATE Query Please!
It all depends on what database server (and version) you are using. I'm not really sure what you are asking, and could use a little more detail about the tables and what are needing to do.

Re: [PHP-DB] Help With Another UPDATE Query Please!
I am using mySQL 3.23 Each project has a work type associated with it, currently the Work Type column of the Project table holds the work type name, however i have now added a Work_Type_ID column to the Work_Type table and i would like Projects to hold the Work_Type_ID as opposed to the Work Type Name.
