Converting date to Varchar? and Varchar to Date?

I have a column of data in a table that has date formatted as '2006-03-26 00:00:00.000'

What T-SQL command that will alter the column so that it is now Varchar '03-26-2006'?

I also want to know how to do the opposite... if I have '03-26-2006' via command, how do I convert the column of the table to be datetime from varchar

This should give you an idea of how to handle these conversions:

DECLARE @.MyDateTimeValue datetime
SET @.MyDateTimeValue = '2006-03-26 00:00:00.000'

SELECT convert( varchar(10), @.MyDateTimeValue, 101 )

-
03/26/2006

SELECT cast( '03/26/2006' AS datetime )

2006-03-26 00:00:00.000
