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

You could use a WHERE clause like:

WHERE DateColumn BETWEEN
    CAST(date_format(date_sub(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 MONTH),'%Y-%m-01') AS date)
    AND
    date_sub(now(), INTERVAL 1 MONTH)
