texbox data type

(OP)
I have 3 text boxes that require a date be placed into them. Is there a way to only allow dates to be placed in these text boxes?

RE: texbox data type

Use a DateTimePicker or a Monthview control (or even a Calendar control!) instead of a Textbox and you will ensure that you get a date, and that there is no confusion about date formats.

Good Luck
