MySQL select all rows from last month until (now() - 1 month), for comparative purposes

Question

I need some help writing a MySQL query to show me rows from last month, but not the whole month, only up and until the same day, hour and minute as it is now(), but 1 month

Answer 1

This is an example of a MySQL date operation relevant to your question:

SELECT DATE_ADD( now( ) , INTERVAL -1 MONTH ) 

The above will return date time one month ago

So, you can use it, as follows:

SELECT * 
FROM your_table 
WHERE Your_Date_Column BETWEEN '2011-01-04' 
    AND DATE_ADD(NOW( ), INTERVAL -1 MONTH )
