This is what I ended up using: RULE: datefromVALID CRIT: REGEX ARGS: ^((0?[1-9])|(1[0-2]))/((0?[1-9])|([12][0-9])|(3[01]))/[0-9]{2,4}$ FFLD: datefrom MESG: - starting date, must be mm/dd/yyyy format. ### it only allows 1-12 for the mm field and 1-31 for the dd field. Also, it allows yy or yyyy variations. > If all you want to do is require it to be in m/d/yyyy > format, use the REGEX criterion: > CRIT: REGEX > ARGS: ^[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{4}$ *************************************************************************** This is an automatically-generated notice.
