Example
By default, the minimum acceptable date in Zim is 0. The following assignments are accepted without warnings
>let nDate = 0.
>let pDate = 19991231.
>let qDate = 20010101.
However, when the minimum acceptable date is set to 20000101, the first two assignments generate warnings:
>let nDate = 0.
*** Warning *** DATE value is invalid but the operation was performed.
>let pDate = 19991231.
*** Warning *** DATE value is invalid but the operation was performed.
The following assignment executes without warnings:
>let qDate = 20010101.
