How can I Quit a Invalid date Message?

Look The thing is that I want to validate a textbox so I have a textbox formated like a date. When I type data like 55/25/1699, a invalid data message is diplayed but I want to change message with different sentence
How Can I do it?

In the error method of the textbox, or your form put in the message that you want to show the user, when the specific error occurs.

the thing is when I type a invalid date it doesn't execute any method, I already put a message in error method, but it doesn't display the message.
When I type 23/56/5220 the focus stays in the same textbox only display invalid date message, I don't know, I already put set notify off to quit this message but the focus stays in this control, I just need to find the way to display my own message.

I've encountered this problem before, too, when developing a multi-language system (where "Invalid date" would always be in English).

As I recall, the only way we could get around it was make the textbox have a character value, and use " / / " as the inputmask. Since it is character type, VFP wouldn't do date-validation on it. Robert Bradley
