Hi Anoop,
In order to validate a date I am using next query:
select date_format(date_sub(date_add('<yourdate>', interval 1 day), interval
1 day),'%Y%m%d') = date_format('<yourdate>','%Y%m%d');
It will give you 1 if date is valid.
Best regards,
Mikhail.

No problem - I followed up and found out that this function is not
available. THought probably you were referring to a later version of Mysql..
anyways...
We use Java - and maybe I could use that - I was just wondering if I could
help reinventing something already there.
Thanks so much for the suggestions/
Anoop
