Storing a date into three variables

I would like to have the date 2/3/00 stored
as three variables....

2 = dayvar
3 = monthvar
00 = yearvar

how can I take that date (it will change
everytime.... )

How is the date given to you?

As a Date? ( DateValue("2/3/00") )
Or as a String? ( "2/3/00" )

If its as a date you can do the following :

Code:

---

Dim dtDate as Date
Dim dayvar as integer, monthvar as integer, yearvar as integer

dtDate = DateValue("2/3/00")

dayvar = day(dtDate)
monthvar = month(dtDate)
yearvar = year(dtDate)

---

If it is given to you as a string you can do :

Code:

---

Dim cDate as String
Dim dtDate as Date
Dim dayvar as integer, monthvar as integer, yearvar as integer

dtDate = DateValue(cDate)

dayvar = day(dtDate)
monthvar = month(dtDate)
yearvar = year(dtDate)

Just in case you are not sure about it being a string or a date... Getting the value from a TextBox means it is a string... getting it from a field in a database where it is stored as a date means you get it as a date.
