De: Frank Cazabon <[email protected]> Asunto: Re: Date typed-in problem Para: [email protected] Fecha: jueves, 12 de enero, 2012 15:22 Angel, that sounds to me like the field you are using as a date is actually a character and you have some validation converting it from character to a date value which displays the "space bar" message. I think you should change it to use a date field and remove any validation. But again, I'm just guessing. If you could show us the form or a sample illustrating the problem I think it will be safer than allowing dubious dates into your data by setting StrictDate to 0 Frank.
