If the column containing the date has the MySQL DATE data type, it will store it as YYYY-MM-DD. See the following from the MySQL documentation at Overview of Date and Time types
DATE
A date. The supported range is '1000-01-01' to '9999-12-31'. MySQL displays DATE values in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format, but allows you to assign values to DATE columns using either strings or numbers.
In your case MySQL accepts '06-10-09' as year 2006, month 10 and day 9.
You can either use the standard date type and use date_format in the display of the date, or make the field a CHAR field but then it will be difficult to do arithmetic on its value. I would choose the first solution.

Thank you very much for your reply
now i am changing my format as string.
i am insert date like this '20-oct-2006' using data type varchar.
at the time of select i want to change the date format like this '20-10-2006'
i will try with this qurey but not working
that is
select name,curdate,da te_format(curda te ,'%d%m%y') from mytable;
+-------+-------------+-------------------------------+
| name | curdate | date_format(cur date,'%d%m%y') |
+-------+-------------+-------------------------------+
| mysql | 20-oct-2006 | |
+-------+-------------+-------------------------------+
out put is like this
please give me the solution
Thanks

I assume you have to use PHP to do that. A much better solution would be if you inserted your data as (I am jusing NOW for the date here) e.g. - INSERT INTO table_name (name, cur_date) VALUES('John', NOW())
and select back with - SELECT name, DATE_FORMAT(cur_date, '%d-%m-%y') as cur_date FROM table_name
That nwill give you the required 'day-month-year' format.
One of the main reasons to still use the DATE type for cur_date is that you can, when the need arises, do arithmetic on the dates.

I have been trying to run this MySQL query using PHP:
SELECT id, trans_type, remote_addr, DATE_FORMAT(time, '%M %e, %Y %r') as time
FROM transactions WHERE client_id = " . $client_id . " ORDER BY time asc
and I am getting this error message:
MySQL Error number: 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ORDER BY time asc' at line 2
I added the "as time" in hopes it wasn't seeing the 'DATE_FORMAT()'field as the time field.

Hi,
I'm new to MySQL and I have qustion regarding to CAST and Date_Format

I am trying to take a date in the format "YYYY-MM-DD" and get from it the month as a word (e.g. July) and the day as a 2 digit number (e.g. 24).
I am trying to use the date_format function, (new as of php 5.2) but I can't get it to work...
$date = "2007-06-22 00:00:00";
//I also tried $date = "2007-06-22"; but that didn't work either
//I also tried adding strtotime($date); but that didn't help!
$month = date_format($date , 'F');
