InputBox a date
I was able to do it by placing the value of the variable in a cell, then
setting the variable equal to the contents of that cell. In my particular
scenario that worked OK since I would be putting the variable into that cell
anyway.
But my question still stands. What is the best way to get a date from
an InputBox, either function or method. Thanks. Otto

I want the user to respond to an InputBox with a date, like 1/1/05.
However, subsequent checks of this date against another date fail because
the Input date is a string.
I know that I can force the Input 1/1/05 into a date with the
DateSerial function. Is there a quicker, better way? The variable that
gets the Input date is declared a Variant.
Thanks for your help. Otto
