Umm. The opposite could be true also. Fed 29 might not be valid for
2037 but it is for 1937.
Well, have fun!!!.

Date is always tricky. When doing the subtracting 100 logic, you might
want to convert the date to a ISO 8 digits numeric field first.
Subscriber this 8 digits numeric field by 100 and check the date to make
sure it is still valid before use it.
Feb 29 might be valid for 2037 and not valid for 1937.

Thanks all;
I had actually "doodled" with the concept of subtracting 100 from the
date, but wasn't sure if this was an accepted way to go.
Thanks for all your help.
