Hi,

I am new to this php/MySQL stuff and just finished setting up a database and some php to query it. But I ran into an unforseen problem when it comes to converting dates using PHP. PHP seems to like its dats in the 'yyyymmdd' format and in the database i created the dates are in 'yyyy-mm-dd' format. Is there any easy way to change the format in yhe mySQL database without re-entering all the info?

Any help would be appreciated thanks

CMatrix
