I would like to know how anyone is trapping dates for Y2K in VFP 5.
If I enter a bad date in a date field and try to leave the field, I not only stay in the field, but I can't get an error message to fire at all. If I put field-level rules on the date fields I can't get it to fire: ddatefld <> {}.
From my insight it seems that the database engine is validating dates before it gets a chance to hit the field-level rule.

I just want a message to appear when the user puts in an invalid date.
