The Date field is valid to the year 9999. The Attorney, Date, both 20 character fields and up to 20 characters in the Description can be used as Search criteria..

Clicking the Find button to the right of the Attorney, Category and Case fields displays a list of previous entries for that field as seen in the screen below .
