Not so fast, your code does not work while his does. 
[Hint] Your code will not return false for strings of length 1, 10, 101, etc.

Of course not !  Thats an exercise for the next poor soul that works on the code :p

For checking whether the string contains a valid date the code is crap. (SCNR)

Why can't not ONE of you folkes be grown up enough to simply say that the rubbish:
://it checks if it contains 11 char (dd/MMM/yyyy)
if (Convert.ToInt16(chkdate.Length.ToString()) != 11)
{
// Do something if not.
}
SHOULD be:
:// it checks if it contains 11 char (dd/MMM/yyyy)
if (chkdate.Length != 11)
{
// Do something if not.
}
How hard can it be?
It's OK to pinpoint bad code like that but it's not OK not to come up with a useable alternative.

Michael,
Is your sense of humor having a bad day?
But if we are geting serious, I'd like to point out that your question contains a double negative and means the opposite of your apparent intended meaning.

Shouldn't the comparison do this?

if (chkdate.Length.ToString() != "11")<br />

...Double negative... I give up... SS... forget it...
Not beeing 100% into C# (I'm c/cpp) I suppose that this issue is something in the area of 'to get the types right' right? (ough double 'right' ... sorry)
If this is string: chkdate, then this is int: chkdate.length and then I compare 11 to int which is ok, or?

Michael,
I'm far from 100% into C#, like you, I'm a c/c++ guy. (We still have lots of stuff that's says it's c++ but it's mostly old style C).
Anyway, this is an issue of getting the types right. And I was just being a smart alec.

i am doing a proj to implement quantum encryption in a vb appln. i just need a best algorithm for doin that.. pls help me soon as my proj dates are coming closer....
Thank u,

I think you are going to need a very small chisel and hammer.

No need. All VB apps are quantum encrypted anyway.
Or did I mean 'a quantity of cr*p'?

Correct.

Quantum cryptography makes use of light waves and optical fibers. Firing up Visual Basic 1.0 isn't going to get you there.
Suggestion: Get a flashlight and manually flip the light on and off (1 for on, 0 for off).

Once you get some code written, modify your your post and add some code so your post will be in the proper forum.

Although I also have a hard time taking this seriously, here goes a shot at a serious answer. Quantum Cryptography usually signifies two things, as far as current tech allows: (1) generating truly random numbers, via Quant. Phys.; (2) sending keys securely, by using quantum physics to recognize a tap on the line. MagiQ sells VPN hardware that does both of these things. Their RNG alone creates up to 100 unpredictable keys a second.
So, what do you need to do? Get some of that hardware. Write VB wrappers around all pertinent API functions. Generate keys with the Quantum RNG, and use them with a good encryption algorithm, like AES. If you are transmitting data, send it using Public Key cryptography, with at least the private keys generated from the quantum hardware. You can do the key-exchange part over quantum hardware, to detect taps. Operator should be notified if line is breached regularly. Just be sure to ask MagiQ (or the other unknown one) for technical documentation, to be sure this would work. Oh yeah, if you build a VB Quantum CryptoAPI, I will be expecting a free copy.
