What Format Should I Save My Date Info In MySQL
I have to 2 questions:
1) What format should I save my date info in mySQL?
2) Is mm/dd/YYYY '10/31/2004' a good solution?
Users can do search and display data from certain date to certain date.
How do pros go about it? date >'10/31/2004' and date < '11/31/2004'?

Pull Info From One Database To Save In A Session To Push To A Different DB
I'm building a dynamic site that has 3 data bases. One DB contains all of my store info ID#, Name, Address, Phone. Another DB contains member info ID, Name, address, email,phone,etc... The 3rd DB Tracks when a user logs in and logs out at a store. This DB has the following columns Store ID, Member ID, log in time,log out time, time in store. The stores log in in the morning that starts a session-I need the session to pull the store's info ID#, Name,etc... so when a user logs in, in the store. The login page inserts the store ID, Store name, and user ID into the 3rd DB. There are a lot of stores how do I get the store variables to be inserted into the DB?

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?

Date Format Issue
the format for the date in our database is mm/dd/yyyy and when i get the current_date() to compare the two I have the problem of them being different current_date() is yyyy-mm-dd (right?) event_startDate is mm-dd-yyyy I tried using the get_format() function to get them to be the same but it doesnt seem to be working correctly. What I am trying to do is write a query that gets the information for the next upcoming meeting. Thus, the events_startDates needs to be greater than the current_date() and i merely grab the "closest" meeting or the first row as it were. This is what i have so far. How do I get the dates to be comparable to each other? $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM meeting_list, events WHERE event_startDate > current_date() AND eventID = ID AND event_type != 'Sales' ORDER BY event_dates ASC LIMIT 1");

MySQL $query = "SELECT date_format(startdate, '%d %c, %Y'),cat,locatienaam,adres,postcode,stad,telefoon,contactpersoon FROM datasheet "; this is what I do with the result of the query MySQL PHP $result = mysql_query($query); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)){ echo "<h2>{$row['locatienaam']} </h2>" . "<h2>{$row['startdate']}</h2>" . "<p>{$row['omschrijving']}</p> <br><br>";} And it doesn't show the date when I use the SELECT query shown in the first post of this thread.
