Hi Bob,
I guess it depends on what you mean by "real dates" SQL date fields are
pretty specific as to their format, that's why you give them a type of DATE
or DATETIME. It's just a case of adjusting your SELECT statement to use
the functions that SQL provides to return the date in whatever format
No you are right about it being a choice of one or the other. My functions only
convert dates, so they are a lot simpler than yours, and I don't do any error
checking. I ended up converting all my sql columns to date type and presenting
my users with the sql format date. I then use a date picker
I could massage the sql date format in my select statement, but I am trying to
keep my select statements as simple as I can, so I have 2 functions that
convert to and from the standard sql date format.

h... I get it. have SQL change the way IT looks at dates. Well that would
work. Instead though I decided to bite the bullet and write two functions to
convert to and from standard mySQL date format. Thanks for the info though I
will probably use that elsewhere.
