importing from text: date column problem

2002-11-15 Thread Bran Ioan
I want to import a text file into a table that has a date type column with
mysqlimport.
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 -00-00 in the table's date column.
Is there a way to do this correctly ?
My version is  3.23.52.
Thank you.

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