@yigit.aybey You can validate that using below exp. Attached workflow ref

Variable of type boolean Format= DateTime.TryParseExact(Input, "dd.MM.yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, DateTimeStyles.None, Nothing)

Format variable returns True if the entered data format is dd.MM.yyyy else false
Input is the variable that contains the date entered by the user

Please install Workflow Manager Activities once you open it

  1. You can mention the required date format to be entered by the user in Label field of Input Dialog activity.

  2. Assign the Input Dialog activity output to one string variable named strDate.

  3. And then check below conditions to validate whether entered date is correct or not.

       CInt(strDate.Trim.Split("."c)(0)) > 0 AND CInt(strDate.Trim.Split("."c)(0)) <= 31 

  CInt(strDate.Trim.Split("."c)(1)) > 0 AND CInt(strDate.Trim.Split("."c)(1)) <=12

Actually, i’m using your answer and also @lakshman answer to. When user enter smt big number like month or day i’m showing the message to user and keeping the number in log message. On the other hand, when user enter “/” or different number or smt i’m using your program as well.
