Hi all,
I just got a nasty call from a customer that spent an hour trying to run a report from Sep. 1 through Sep. 31. Rebooted the computer several times and all that.

I have a custom text box class that I use to get dates. It works wonderfully and brings up a calendar if the user double clicks on the text box. The problem is I can't find a way to valdiate the date if the user just types it in. If the user enters an invalid date the cursor just stays in the text box. On error does nothing here as one would expect but the normal wait window invalid date also does not show, not that I'm a big fan of that anyway. How can I trap for an invalid date? I would like to be able to display a message box or bring up the calendar but I can find no way to trigger it.

Thanks in advance,
John.
