Hie Guys,

I am trying to figure out how i can put a validation condition in my form
that that only accepts D.O.B that is for 6months olds or older.
will today() - 182 work? whats the correct syntax ?

Hi Eva,

You are correct in your calculation, you just need to use a period
character to refer to the "current" question in the validation condition

. < (today() - 182)
