date() in sql statements

Recommended Posts

Glad it worked, taught myself something new there too.  I'm used to working in Oracle, so I took the following oracle code...

[code]
SELECT to_char(date_column, 'YYYY') "Date", count(*) "Count"
FROM table_name
GROUP BY to_char(date_column, 'YYYY')
ORDER BY "Date" DESC
[/code]

... and then worked out what the equivalent functions were in MySQL.

I've posted this here for anyone who comes across your post and wonders how to do it in Oracle.
