Hmm . . . at first I agree with you, but on second thought, I don't think it
really matters. Since he converting a UInt32 to a string, he needs an 11
char array for any given number. If the handle he gets from the field is
not 11 chars, there is a _potential_ problem. Of course, as long as the
day/month/year values he is passing in are valid, there will never be a
day/month > 31 . . . but better to be safe than sorry, esp if he wants the
code to be reusable in the future.
In summary, both "==" and "<" should work fine, given the assumptions here .
. but based on his follow-up post, it sounds like that might not be the
problem :)
