FROM data_table X)

As regards your earlier question, in MySQL and other databases too, there is a difference between single quote (') and backquote (`). I think you meant to use the latter, which is what Ditto was getting at.
I'm an Oracle guy, not very familiar with MYSQL .. Smilie I was thinking his issue was the fact that:

where column = 'today'

is not the same as:

where column = today

if today is some internal function, then you probably shouldn't use single quotes ... if MYSQL uses back quotes ` .. then yeah, sure Smilie but I was making an assumption MYSQL treats single or double quotes as strings.

which would be like trying to match:

where Nov 25, 2014 = "today" ..

as opposed to:
where Nov 25, 2014 = Nov 25, 2014
(ie where date_col = today ) ??

In Oracle it's:

where date_col = sysdate

but that's another story Smilie

RECOLL(1)						      General Commands Manual							 RECOLL(1)

NAME
recoll - user interface for the Recoll full text search system SYNOPSIS
recoll [ -c <configdir> ] [ -o | -l | -f | -a ] [ -t ] [ -q <query> ] DESCRIPTION
The recoll command will start the graphical user interface for querying the Recoll database. On the first run, recoll will create the user configuration which can be customized before starting the first indexation. The -c option specifies the configuration directory name, overriding the default or $RECOLL_CONFDIR. The -q option can be used to specify an initial query on the command line. This query will be interpreted by default as a query language string. If -a is specified, the query string will be interpreted as an all words simple search query. If -o is specified, the query string will be interpreted as an any word simple search query. If -f is specified, the query string will be interpreted as a file name simple search query. If -l is specified, the query string will be interpreted as a query language simple search query. If -t is specified, the Graphical User Interface will not be started, and results will be printed to the standard output. Additional options understood by the recollq command may be specified in this case. These can control the output format and the maximum number of results to be printed. Please refer to online help for a full description. SEE ALSO
