>>Can someone give me the proper way to input a date into the built in dialog box that prompts for input when trying to browse a view in design mode? I have tried various combos like {^2002-01-01} or CTOD("01/01/2001") etc. and all I get are operator/operand mismatches and ambiguous date complaints no matter what I try. If I set my input variable from the Command Window with any of the above forms it flies like a champ. What does this dialog box want? Thanks.

Hi Cetin,

Yes, I meant combinations. From my comments above, I have tried the {^2001-1-1} format and I get the "Ambiguous date/datetime constant" error. That is what is driving me crazy! {^2001-01-01} or {^2001/01/01} or any other variant I can think of gives me the same error. What am I missing here?
