title: MySQL date-type DATE format storage
body: <p>MySQL datatype <code>'Date'</code> stores the date in the format <code>yyyy-mm-dd</code>, is there any way to change the storage format?</p>
  
  <p>I don't want to play on the application layer, I need this thing on database layer instead of performing format checks on the application level.</p>
  
  <p>I want MySQL table to store the date as <code>dd-mm-yyyy</code> instead of  <code>yyyy-mm-dd</code>. </p>
