Entering Dates in VB.NET 1

[arigsby]

How do you prevent a date being entered in a textbox that has already passed?

 

[hayt]

dim myDate as date

if isDate(myTextbox.text) then
myDate = cDate(myTextbox.Text)
end if

if myDate < now() then
messagebox.show("ERROR! Date is old and stuff!", "date error", MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation)
else
'do stuff
end if


try that. let me know if this helped.
