I am trying to write a query to select a trivia question, but I don't want the trivia question category to be the same two days in a row so I added a second "SELECT" syntax to find out what category was used yesterday. This works when I test it "live", but doesn't work when it is part of a cron job. How do I get the value of `Bible_trivia_category_reference` from the second SELECT query to be used in the first? What change is needed? Ron SELECT * FROM `verse_of_the_day_Bible_trivia` WHERE `assigned_date` = '0000-00-00' AND `seasonal_use` = $bible_trivia_application AND `live` =1 AND NOT `Bible_trivia_category_reference` = ( SELECT `Bible_trivia_category_reference` FROM `verse_of_the_day_Bible_trivia` WHERE `assigned_date` = '$last_mailing_date' LIMIT 1 ) ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1 -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
