“Date” refers to what type of data you’re trying to validate. The IsValid function takes a datatype argument for the first parameter; one of the parameters is Date. Other applicable parameters include “Int32″ “Int64″ “Decimal[1,2]” Etc. You should remove the brackets around your stage variable cDispDt. I wasn’t very clear when I created this blog post and will be editing it soon. The brackets were intended to serve as placeholders, to wit, “put your variable here.”

I hope this helps. Please feel free to respond and let me know how it goes!

I took your example and applied it to my code but not sure what “Date” is?

IF NOT(IsValid(”Date”, [cDispDt]))
THEN ‘9999-12-31′
ELSE [cDispDt]
