Re: [EpiData-list] "Illegal entry" Dates

You cannot have illegal dates: 99, -77, 88 are not dates and if they were, they are not legal, there is no date that contains, e.g. "99". A command for a legal date range and legal date values should look something like this (using European date format here):

legdat RANGE 01/01/1900 31/12/2008 LEGAL 30/12/2009 24/11/2008 END END
