I cannot enter a date that old (the maximum I can set the read-only threshold 
date is 3650 days).  But regardless, I continue to get the same error message 
as indicated prior.  I have re-attached the message for your review.  That 
error comes up after every digit of the year that I try to enter.  Eventually, 
it will accept the year as entered.

I am entering a valid date with a digit year with the delimiters e.g. 10/12//10 
which yields 10/12/1899.

Delimiters are required for date entry, so the second and fourth versions won’t 
work. I had no trouble with the first and third on the Vendor bill entry form.
