title: How to change MySQL date format for database?
body: <p>We are using a MySQL database with FileMaker.  It appears that when FileMaker is reading the MySQL tables, it will only accept dates in the format of m/d/y.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way I can get our MySQL database to change its default format to be m/d/y instead of YYYY-MM-DD?</p>
  
  <p>I know I can use the DATE_FORMAT() function on individual SELECT queries but I want to see if I can just change the default formatting.</p>
