Using an Edit Box and setting the field type to be date works well for validation to make sure that a) there is a value (required field) and b) that a value is within a certain range.

However, when an invalid date is entered (let's say with a character), by default the XPage returns a message "This field is not a valid date". Is there a way to change this text so that I can refer to the exact field that is incorrect OR a way to build a custom validation to throw a different message; one specific to the field itself?

Thanks for the help!
