you will only see the runtime error while debugging in delphi? are you testing in or out of the IDE

Hi.

 

I am trying to check if a date is valid without raising a runtime error, but I cant seem to work it out.

 

This is the code I am trying

 

  try
    strtodate(s_value);
  except
    on EConvertError do
    begin
      showmessage('The date "' + s_value + '" must be entered in the format dd/mm/yy');
      b_ok := false;
    end;
  end;

however this raises a runtime error when the date is invalid as well as displaying my error message.

 

Is there any way to lose the runtime error message and solely display my error message?

Cheers

 

Chris Veale
