m3bik Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Not sure how well I can describe my situation, but I'll try... I'm trying to create a reminder program for myself (I forget a lot). I have a mysql table set up where it stores the hour it's supposed to remind me and the description of the reminder... I want to have some reminders with multiple hours, like it's supposed to remind me at "2,5,12". I can't just select the row where HOUR=2 because it has several other numbers in the same row, and I can't select the row where HOUR like '2' because then it might select the rows with 12 (which isn't 2). Is there a way I can select the rows where HOUR=2 and where HOUR has a 2 in the commas? Or do I have to just select the rows where HOUR like '2' and then sort through it with more code?

m3bik Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Ok, thanks. I'll admit I was being a bit lazy. I didn't want to have to create a new row for the same information, just a different time... But it looks like I'm headed in that direction.
