Mysql Compare two datetime fields

Your query apparently returned all correct dates, even considering the time.

If you're still not happy with the results, give DATEDIFF a shot and look for negaive/positive results between the two dates.

Make sure your mydate column is a datetime type.

The query you want to show as an example is:

SELECT * FROM temp WHERE mydate > '2009-06-29 16:00:44';

04:00:00 is 4AM, so all the results you're displaying come after that, which is correct.

If you want to show everything after 4PM, you need to use the correct (24hr) notation in your query.

To make things a bit clearer, try this:

SELECT mydate, DATE_FORMAT(mydate, '%r') FROM temp;

That will show you the date, and its 12hr time.

You can use the following SQL to compare both date and time -

Select * From temp where mydate > STR_TO_DATE('2009-06-29 04:00:44', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:%s');

Attached mysql output when I used same SQL on same kind of table and field that you mentioned in the problem-

It should work perfect.
