Hi,

I have this test project;
The intent is to take a date entered in the editfield and test that it is a Saturday. If it is then enter the long date in the editfield. If it's nat a Saturday then do a msgbox and update the entered date to the full shortdate.

The ultimate goal is to be able to enter the date and when going to the next field validate the date entered.

I has two editfields and one pushbutton;
the following code if entered in the lostfocus field won't run. I entered in the MouseDown of the Pushbutton it works fine.

  Dim d As date
  Dim s,t As string= ""
  Dim b As boolean

  s = editfield1.text
  b=parsedate(s,d)
  t=d.longdate

  If InStr(t, "Saturday") = 0 then
    MsgBox "That is not a Saturday"
    t=d.shortdate // strip day off bad day
    editfield1.text=t // update display to complete shortdate
  else
    // was a Sat., update display to a longdate
    t=d.longdate
    editfield1.text=t
  end

Any clue what's wrong?

Tia,

Robert Poland
