    Dates

    Hi all

    I have Date 1 and Date 2 in a form.

    Date 2 cannot be before Date 1.
    I want to stop the user from doing this in error and maybe create a message that says e.g. "Error - Date 2 cannot be before Date 1"



    Is this possible?
    Thanks
    Mike

    It would be something you place in the validation rule of your field. http://allenbrowne.com/ValidationRule.html
