Hello,
I am trying to validate a date. My table is defined with a column with a
data type of Date/Time. On the table design page, the Input Mask is:
"99/99/0000;0;_".
Currently, there is an input mask on the form where the date is entered. It
is:
99/99/0000;0;
Question: Should there be an input maks on both the table design and the
form?
Does one override the other? What is the best practice for this?
Currently, when I enter a date on the form, invalid dates are accepted.
Such as:
"02/45/2007", "14/23/2008", which are obviously not valid.
I need to ensure that for this particular form that the date entered is
greater than the current date. On the form, I have tried a validation rule
of >=Date(). Invalid dates are still being accepted by the form (prior to
saving the record. SAving the record is yet another issue...)
Can anyone point me to some good examples of input masks? I have not found
any that satisify my needs yet.
TIA,
Rich
