Date in VB

[Micky]

I have a text box which accepts date.
How do I check whether the date entered by the user
is within the specified range

i.e. if the user enters (dd/mm/yy) as "30/02/02"
then this is incorrect as date in feb is 28

So how do I check !!!!!!

Please somebody advise

thnks

You mean like make sure the date is valid?

IsDate("30/02/02")

How do u use Isdate function

I dont want to break up the nos and check Because how will i know
whether it is a leap year or whether there are 30 days or 31 days etc etc
Is there another way other than breaking up !!!!!!

I believe ISDATE will pick it up... but you could alwayys test to be sure. (2000 was a leap year)

Just like I showed you. Just pass the date in question into IsDate() and it will return True if its a valid date, false otherwise.
