How are you accepting the input? A textbox? Have you considered using a "masked textbox"? (I can't recall the official name of this control type.)

I'm accepting it in a textbox. Unfortuantely, i still don;t know how to masked it. Thanks.

Can you show us the code which moves the value from the textbox to the date/time variable, or whetever you're placing it in?
Also, I don't know whether it will be much use or not, but the control I was referring to can be found under Project|Components as "Microsoft Masked Edit Control".

Hi there,
Why not make things alot more easier by using VB Masked Control, you can save alot of valuable time. Good luck & take care.

Yes, it might be helpful. The datepicker control might be even better.
However, it sounds as though the real problem is not the input, but the conversion to a date value. That's why I asked to see the code.

I tried the Masked and its works fine but i'm trying to fix my tab index now. i think it got mixed up. Btw, killer42 i don't have a code yet to input the date. What I have is the textbox labeled as txt_activedate with the datasource pointed to an access database.
