Use a command line tool to change the date. I am only familiar with perl and it would be a very short script to change to YYYY-MM-DD.

I have a pretty large file with a Date column in the format M/D/YYYY.

Is there a way to either change the Date data type in the table or a method
to indicate the date format in the LOAD DATA statement in order to handle
this?

Thanks in advance for any help!
