    It would be easier and less error prone in your app if you use drop down lists instead of letting the user type the date in. Every person likes to write the date different. If you only use the dropdowns, then you can ensure that you can create the date they wanted.

    If getting the date from a user via the web, this ASP.NET control works great!

    If you're using a WinForm, try the ComboBox approach hellswraith mentioned. You can combine that with the IsDate function.
