From: Xah Lee Date: April 6 1999 1:42pm Subject: default DATE to now()? List-Archive: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/1460 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Is there a way to let DATE type default to current date? for example, something like create table table_name (sign_on_date date not null default current_date()) Of course, the above does not work. Thanks. Xah xah@stripped http://www.best.com/~xah/PageTwo_dir/more.html
