i have a txtfrdate and txttodate in my form. i want to set txttodate.value when txtfrdate loses focus. so in txtfrdate.lostfocus() i do,

thisform.txttodate.value=thisform.txtfrdate.value

this works fine.

i enter 05/21/2004 in txtfrdate, but at txttodate, when i type only upto 05/24 .......... and press my save button......... txttodate changes to the value of txtfrdate.

how can i avoid this? both textboxes are set initially to date().

pls help. TIA.
