DAP - Input mask in date field?

[Techniproshop]

How can I force users to enter a date the way I want in a DAP? Can I use an input mask?

Thanks.

It works but the user will get an error message and how can I add a msgbox to tell the user the proper way to input the date?

If it works, why would there be an error message? What message do you get? What is your code? Did you code a message box within the code?
