George,
You will need to get a hold of datetime.e written by Carl White from the
archive. It's an excellent library for date/time
maniuplation/calculation. "Two Thumbs Up!" There's a routine in his
library called "ValidDate". Also if you download my Timesheet program
from the "Recent Contributions" page there are two routines to handle
formatting a date for display in an edit window and converting that
character value to numeric for validation (CvtDate and ExtractDate).
The timehseet program uses dates pretty extensively. Also, I would
suggest if you are requiring the user to input a date try using the
MonthCalendar control in Win32lib. Makes date entry much easier.
Hope this helps.
Jonas
