Thank you... However, I did change the preference, but it reverted back to "Invalid".. In addition, the date range setting is not working for me.

I set the 'State date" : January 1, 2000 . End Date : December 31, 2009. after this. Whatever I type in, it is always said "unavailable". Or invalid (if I managed to change the error message for the DAte in Preference)

Regarding the Date range limit, you're right, I run a couple of tests and it doesn't work. I opened a separate thread for it and we will attend it here from now one.

Regarding the error messages.

I tested and a custom error message was showing for me:

Unless you were referring to some other Error message. I changed this one:

Did you change that message or some other one?
