Insert Date into Database

[mako18]

Ok, how do I get Dreamweaver to insert a date into a database.
I have an HTML Form with 3 different Drop-Down Menus (month, date, year) so people can select their birthdate. I want that in turn to go into the database under the 'Date' format.
Is there a way to do this? Or will I just have to have 3 seperate fields within the database itself for month, date and year?
Thanks

The simplest way is to concatenate the fields then insert as Date.
