It's possible if you use DATE_FORMAT().
E.g.
SELECT DATE_FORMAT('1997-11-15', '%d-%b-%Y')

> In the text file the date column is in the DD-MMM-YY format (ie
25-JUL-02); so
> when I import it, I get 0000-00-00 in the table's date column.
> Is there a way to do this correctly ?
> My version is 3.23.52.
> Thank you.
