In this article, we would like to show you how to use BETWEEN clause in MySQL.

Quick solution:

SELECT * FROM `table_name` WHERE `column_name` BETWEEN value_1 AND value_2;

Practical example

To show how BETWEEN clause works, we will use the following table:

MySQL - example data used with BETWEEN clause
MySQL - example data used with BETWEEN clause

 

Note: 

At the end of this article you can find database preparation SQL queries.

Example

In this example, we will display users with id column values between 2 and 4.

Query: 

SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `id` BETWEEN 2 AND 4;

Result: 

Result - HeidiSQL
Result - HeidiSQL

Note: 

BETWEEN clause is used very often for dates.

Database preparation

create_tables.sql file:

CREATE TABLE `users` (
	`id` INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
	`name` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
	`role` VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL,
	PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)
ENGINE=InnoDB;

insert_data.sql file:

INSERT INTO `users`
	(`name`, `role`)
VALUES
	('John', 'admin'),
	('Chris', 'moderator'),
	('Kate', 'user'),
	('Denis', 'moderator');
