Hi, ALL,
I am working on a script that parses CSV file and after successful
parsing insert data ino mySQL table.
One of the fields in CSV holds a date+time value.
What the script should do is check if the cell has any data, i.e. not
empty and then make sure that the data is date+time.
If the validation fails, it should insert NULL into the mySQL datetime
field, otherwise the actual datetime will be inserted.
Right now the script uses a placeholder "0000-00-00 00:00:00.000" if
the date validation fails (either cell is empty or it has wrong data)
What I tried so far is:

Is it possible to do what I want?
I'd like to use one query to insert the data into the table.
Thank you.
