Compare Dates [resolved]

[demotivater]

What's the best way to check if one date is greater than another? I have two textboxes with dates in them, want to make sure one of the dates is not greater than the other. The below works sometimes, but I just ran into a case where it isn't working.

If txtBidDate.text <> "" Then
                        If txtReviewDate.text > txtBidDate.text Then
                            MsgBox "The review date cannot be past the bid date", vbCritical, "Error"
                            txtReviewDate.text = ""
                            cmdReviewDate.SetFocus
                            Exit Sub
                        End If
                    End If

reviewdate = 6/10/04
biddate = 6/9/04

Is it because I need to format them both to = mm/dd/yyyy so 6/9/04 would become 6/09/04, or is there a better way?

Thanks in advance
