Building Conditional Rules in 2008.3

Has anyone been able to configure a conditional rule in 2008.3 so that if someone selects the current date (today's date), the rule will display an alert and stop submission.  I've tried using several date fields in the rule, but so far nothing is working.

Is it possible to do this using a conditional rule?  I didn't see anything about dates in the documentation.

Thanks - Wendy

its difficult to validate dates as users can set their own prefernce of the date display, there are a few posts on that topic on this forum
