Data Annotation Ranges of Dates

Docs on MSDN says you can use the RangeAttribute

[Range(typeof(DateTime), "1/2/2004", "3/4/2004",
        ErrorMessage = "Value for {0} must be between {1} and {2}")]
public datetime Something { get; set;}

jQuery validation does not work with [Range(typeof(DateTime),"date1","date2"] -- My MSDN doc is incorrect

I did this to fix your problem

 public class DateAttribute : RangeAttribute
   {
      public DateAttribute()
        : base(typeof(DateTime), DateTime.Now.AddYears(-20).ToShortDateString(),     DateTime.Now.AddYears(2).ToShortDateString()) { } 
   }
