How come when you put in the msg box:
put "01/01/01 are you kidding me" is a date
you get true? Am I missing something?
How do you validate a date entry?
Hi Chipp,
Using Mac 10.3.9, Rev 2.8.1- dp-2/3, Note: dp-1 only allows a 2
numbered year: 07
Don't know if something like this is what you are looking for.
I use it in a closeField for a field that just contains a date:
01/01/2007
If 13/42/2007 is entered, the answer dialog is shown. "is not a date
works"
on cDateFormat pfldName
set the itemDel to "/"
put fld pfldName into hold
if the num of chars of hold <>10 or hold is not a date or the num of
chars of item 3 of hold is not 4 then
answer information "Invalid date format. Please enter date in
mm/dd/yyyy format." titled "Invalid format"
select text of fld pfldName
EXIT TO TOP
end if
end cDateFormat
Regards ... Bob
