Data input validation

I have a variable, vToday, that in my script I set to yesterday's date to give a default value. Now I want to be able to change this to any date value. I have set an input variable object but I need to be able to force the value to a valid date. For instance, if somebody enters 1/4 I need that to be formatted as DD/MM/YYYY i.e. 01/04/2021, preferably updating the vToday variable. Any ideas?

Hi @CEJW , maybe you should think about using an extension for that, i found this for example :
