How to generate this complicated query?
Pls do help out with this prob in generating a query..

I hav 'date of birth' column in a table.

I have two variables (lowerage and upperage) and have to generate a query that will return records in which the age is between these two limits.

Can someone pls generate a query statement for this... i have given up trying!

Try:
SELECT * FROM yourtable WHERE date_of_birth BETWEEN $lower AND $upper;

RE: How to generate this complicated query?
Try this
php Code:
Original - php Code 
  1.  
  2. <?php
  3.     $result = mysql_pconnect("localhost", DBUSERNAME, DBPASSWD)or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());
  4.  $conn = mysql_select_db(DBNAME) or die ('I cannot select the database because: ' . mysql_error());
  5.  
  6.     $query = "select date_of_birth from tablename where (age<$upperage) and (age>$lowerage)";
  7.  $result = mysql_query($query);
  8.   if ($result)
  9.       $row = mysql_fetch_object($result);
  10.   else
  11.     return false;
  12.  
  13.  $age=$row->age;
  14. ?>


I haven't checked it for errors.
