Hi,

I use mysql4.0.24. Date is stored as string('15/01/2008') in mysql table.Now i want to filter the records based on the date column using <,> and between operatoes.But i am unable to do it.How can i convert the date column from string data type to date data type and check it.

I use cast() function.But it is not properly worked in mysql4.0.24.Please anyone tell me the query.

Thanks in advance.
