Compare only day and month with date field in mysql

Question

How to compare only day and month with date field in mysql? For example, I\'ve a date in one table: 2014-07-10

Similarly, another date 2000-07-10<

Answer 1

Use DATE_FORMAT instead:

SELECT DATE_FORMAT('2000-07-10','%m-%d')

yields

07-10

Here's your query re-written with DATE_FORMAT():

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE DATE_FORMAT(field, '%m-%d') = DATE_FORMAT('2000-07-10', '%m-%d')
AND id = "1"
