Oh dear, Oh dear!

What ever happend to :
DATE = ''
FOR I = 31 TO 28 STEP -1
  IF OCONV(ICONV(I:rest of date,'D'),'D') = I:rest of date THEN
    DATE = I:rest of date
    EXIT
  END
NEXT I
IF DATE = '' THEN Come to screeching HALT

Of course for the people with backward dates (!!!), the "I:rest of date" would look like MONTH:I:YEAR with the appropriate separators, wouldn't it????

I use the method my dad taught me when I was a kid, cuz I couldn't
remember "Thiry days hath September...".

Hold 2 fists side-by-side, forefingers of right & left hand touching.
Each knuckle and each valley between knuckles represents a month.
Start at the left pinky knuckle and count off months.
If a month lands on a knuckle, it has 31 days.
If it lands on a valley, it has 30 days. (Except February has that 28/29
thing going on.)
