Hi Jim,
stamp is a field in the db and I'm using the NOW() to populate it when a
record is created
and when I echo it to my excel sheet it looks like this:  2/24/2009  2:56:48

Problem with that example output is, is that a conversion has happened somewhere along the way. I say this because the MySQL timestamp format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. And depending on the full settings will probably include the GMT offset in there as well. So, your example is bad.

As for saying that you use NOW() to populate it. Well, that says to me that you at least have something resembling a MySQL timestamp field in use. So, with that said, here is my rendition of what might work for you.

Here is the example that I lifted from the MySQL doc site:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/date-and-time-functions.html

SELECT something FROM tbl_name
    -> WHERE DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY) <= date_col;

Taking that and changing it so it works for you would result in the following.

$query .= " WHERE DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 7 DAY) <= `stamp`";

Try that and let us know your results.  */for the archives of course/*
