Date Of Birth Issue

[mantrep]

Cant seem to find any info on this problem.

I changed the date of birth option on my customer login page. (changed it to accept resale number information) My problem is when the customer logs in it gives the date of birth error. How can I change it to accept any number combination?

That field has a lot of tests done all throughout the code for it being a date field ...

It is not the ideal field to try to use for another purpose ...

You would really be better off creating your own field ...

Follow a field like the fax and find all of its locations and make a clone on that field for the Admin and Catalog ...
