Kevin,

Thanks for the tip - I'll check that out.

Is there a way for empty or blank date fields coming from VFP tables to display as empty fields instead of displaying as '12/30/1899'? I have read some other threads in the Visual FoxPro section and they seem to indicate that this happens because of the VFP9.0 OleDb driver.

If something is not right, I would like to display a quick error dialog and return focus back to the textbox for them to re-enter the search criteria.
