@toplisekauthorNov 17.2005 — Each year there are different days which are start of week. So, I was thinking to have field week and within dates which will be start of weeks for every year. Is this good approach?

Start of week would be Monday ?

@chazzyNov 17.2005 — Hey.

Try this query out

"SELECT * FROM YOUR_TABLE WHERE DATE_FORMAT(YOUR_DATE_COLUMN,'%W') = 'Monday'"

That should get you the records for every Monday.

You can also use DATE_FORMAT(YOUR_DATE_COLUMN,'%w') = 1; See also
