Here's a more complete version, that ONLY works inside of the TW prerelease (because it needs the range operator). ABSOLUTELY make a backup because if something goes wrong, you will have to wait forever for the screen to update:
\define datematch() ^$(month)$/$(day)$/$(year)$ <$list filter="[range[2010,2018,1]]" variable="year"> <$list filter="[range[0.801,0.812,.001]removeprefix[0.8]]" variable="month"> <$list filter="[range[0.801,0.831,.001]removeprefix[0.8]]" variable="day"> <$list filter="[all[tiddlers]regexp<datematch>]" > </$list> </$list></$list> That blank space in the middle is deliberate. Without that there is no output. This checks every date from 1/1/2010 to 12/31/2018, including a few dates that don't appear on calendars. The dangers in this technique are one more reason why it's better to set up a separate date field.
