huh? How did this happen...? I just checked my outbox, and the message I wrote
yesterday[1] contained "new_date = CONCAT(". It seems as the substring "CON" has been
replaced with a linefeed somewhere along the way...?
Anyway, trying again, the correct statement should be:
UPDATE a SET new_date = CONCAT(
MID(my_date,7,4),'-',
MID(my_date,1,2),'-',
MID(my_date,4,2));
[1] That was wednesday. With the current long delays on the list, this message will
probably not be read until friday... :/
