C    *YMD            Test (D)              SomeDate                 20
C                    If          *IN20 = *On
C                    Time        Today
C    *MDY            Move        Today     SomeDay
C                    Else
C    *YMD            Move        SomeDate  SomeDay
C                    EndIf

Totally untested, some things I found out today (like the Time op code).  You 
may need
to play with the *YMD, *MDY, *ISO, etc... but you should get the general idea.

The whole key is the Test (D) to test a value (numeric or string) for a valid 
date.
