MySQL query to select records with a particular date?


You can use DATE() from MySQL to select records with a particular date. The syntax is as follows.

SELECT *from yourTableName WHERE DATE(yourDateColumnName)=’anyDate’;

To understand the above syntax, let us first create a table. The query to create a table is as follows.

mysql> create table AllRecordsFromadate
-> (
-> Id int,
-> Name varchar(100),
-> Age int,
-> AdmissionDate datetime
-> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.53 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command. The query to insert records is as follows.

mysql> insert into AllRecordsFromadate values(101,'John',23,'2018-10-13');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)

mysql> insert into AllRecordsFromadate values(102,'Carol',24,'2014-12-5 12:34:50');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec)

mysql> insert into AllRecordsFromadate values(103,'Mike',25,'2014-12-5 12:30:40');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.23 sec)

mysql> insert into AllRecordsFromadate values(104,'Bob',24,'2015-10-7 11:10:20');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.20 sec)

mysql> insert into AllRecordsFromadate values(105,'Sam',25,'2011-6-26 10:10:20');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec)

Display all records from the table using select command. The query is as follows −

mysql> select *from AllRecordsFromadate;

The following is the output.

+------+-------+------+---------------------+
| Id   | Name  | Age  | AdmissionDate       |
+------+-------+------+---------------------+
| 101  | John  | 23   | 2018-10-13 00:00:00 |
| 102  | Carol | 24   | 2014-12-05 12:34:50 |
| 103  | Mike  | 25   | 2014-12-05 12:30:40 |
| 104  | Bob   | 24   | 2015-10-07 11:10:20 |
| 105  | Sam   | 25   | 2011-06-26 10:10:20 |
