Is it possible in mysql to create a date field that stores year and month
only (-MM) without having to zero out the day or use varchar type fields
Best here is to just use a DATE field, then use DATE_FORMAT when you
want to pull up the customized date. It will get stored as a timestamp
Thanks...
My issue is not storage, it is confidentiality.
I am not allowed to store the day of birth as it is considered identifying
information (in medical records).
I do not even have the day, I want to pass a date in format (-MM) to a
date field if possible.

Assign all dates to have a day of 01
Store in a date field, use DATE_FORMAT to just extract the MM and .
As you don't have the real day information it doesn't matter what day is used,
so long as it present in all months.
Hope this helps

Hi,
My opinion:
You can create char field type on table (i.e. char(10)) and when you wish to
do some date comparison you can use the next mySQL
functions:LEFT,MID,RIGHT,TRIM (is not only in VB)
I.E:
mydate-field in a_table:char(10);
date on this field: '10.01.2001','30.01.2000',...etc.
select *
, then I shall just proceed to check whether I can do
the required formatting in the frontend before passing it to MySql.

I suppose, by changing the source code, and reompiling, which would break
several other things.

No. This is the standard format. You can, however, reformat the
