>I have an object with a format of 'KD' and would like to be to check for a valid date before VFP 7 displays its 'invalid date' in a wait window.
>The reason is that I would like to generate all validation type messages in our own formatted message box.
>Since the user is going to define the format of the date in the application's preferences, the date could be in one of several different format.
>What is the easiest way to accomplish this task?
>TIA.
