ASP & Date Functions

If you do some string manipulation with your date, you can still use IsDate.
How are you getting your date? Will you know if it will always be
Day-Month-Year? If so, you can re-arrange the string and test it. Like,
IsDate will return true for "Feb 28 2003" (with my US regional settings).
So, just rearrange your string and use IsDate still.

Please don't multipost. I've already replied to this question over at
..asp.db. If you feel you must direct your question at multiple
newsgroups*, then post one single message to the desired groups by
putting the group names into the To list (aka crosspost)

*.asp.db is the only group you needed to post this to. Your question
concerns asp and database code: absolutely no ambiguity.
