Hi Jimmy,

Like I said many times before ---- sophisticated COBOL programmers like
Kellie
Fitton only uses bourgeois concepts and techniques, especially when it
comes to
designing a complex software system for business applications. :---)

using a messsageBox to alert the user of a missing data or improper
characters
in an editBox is a bad programming idea ---- simply because it will
pause the
process of the dataEntry cycle, and forces the end-user to click on the
button
to confirm the message, before allowing him or her to continue to
correct the error.

The format of the Date that you have described above (yyyymmdd) is
really passe
and cannot be used in the graphical world application ---- the sign of
the time right
now is:  "Date-And-Time-Picker" control window, it is very elegant and
easy-to-use
visual calendar, that allows the end-user to simply click and select
the desired date
or time, in a straightforward fashion without typing any thing. Very
cool, you know.

Regards, Kellie.
