Converting Date Format
I figured this out. I had to convert at the query level, not at the design level.
If it is detected as date then
new = format([Table]date, "yy-mm-dd")
If it is text then
new = mid([Table]date,3,8)

Is there a way to do this without needing to add a new column? I was hoping for a workaround that would allow me to convert to date format.
If I have to resort to coding, I can, but this affects multiple columns across a large number of tables.
Thank you,
