Default Date Format And Date Stamping
1.) If possible, change the default date format from YYYY-MM-DD to MM-DD-YYYY.
2.) Auto "date stamp" a newly created record (e.g. I have a field called "date_posted" and would like that field to be auto-filled with the date upon INSERT).
I'm using phpMyAdmin and MySQL version 5.1.30.

Can I Change The Date Format...
Is there anyway to change the default date format (possibly in a .ini or .cfg file) from YYYY-MM-DD to another format ? (ie, mm/dd/yyyy or any user-defined format). The useage that I'm looking at is to import a CSV file into a table (using Load data infile .... command) where dates are stored in mm/dd/yyyy format and can change based on the source of the data. I can import the date fields into a char field and then convert it but would like to save the time to transform and copy contents into another table.

Format Date On Insert
I have a little issue storing dates... The dates are stored in the database as: yyyy-mm-dd The dates are displayed on my webpage as simply: mm/dd I accomplished this using DATE_FORMAT(dateValue, '%m/%d') in my SELECT statement. now, the user has the option of changing the dd or mm and then save the changes. However, since the formats do not match the date is always 0000-00-00 (in the DB). Is there are way to format the date in the INSERT statment, and somehow turn mm/dd into yyyy-mm-dd (yyyy=the current year) so that it will save properly?

Default Value On Date Column
Using MySQL control center, I created a MySQL database table with a column of Date type. It always give the a Default value (0000-00-00) even null is allowed. I tried remove the default value and it comes back by itself. So if I don't supply a value when insert, the default is used. Query IS NOT NULL will not exclude this record. Now, In VB (with ADO/MyOLEDB), I did the exact query trying to filter out the null record. But I still get the record just like in Control Center. BUT, the value on this column is "NULL". How can I leave the Date field as null if no value is supplied?

Date Format For Table Between Two Dates Given
I am writing a query in mysql which will find appropriate fields in a table between two dates given. Below is the query I am using Quote: select row_id from prop_price_period where pid='1' and firstday <='13/09/2008' and lastday >='13/09/2008'. This query was working fine until yesterday since I was using the MM/DD/YYYY (USA) date format. Today we required our application to support both the date formats (USA & UK). So I changed the date format to DD/MM/YYYY. Now this query is returning wrong result set.
