Please critique my code and help me improve. A little disappointed that I did not feel I was able to do the challenges yet. But I will keep learning and improving.

@mrgee1978 Thanks for submitting and apologies for the delay! Unfortunately I ran into problems when trying to add a record. You should use TryParse or TryParseExact (recommended) instead of parse, otherwise computers with a different date format will get this error:

Could you please fix it so I can approve? 😄

@TheCSharpAcademy thank you so much for reviewing my code. On the method that threw the exception, I had already done a check to make sure that the date string passed to the method was a valid one in the GetValidDateString() method. I have been trying to recreate the problem by entering the date string that appears in your screen capture and it seems to work fine for me I don't get the exception, so I was wondering if there was anyway that you could tell me everything that you entered when trying to add a coding session. I want to understand exactly what I did wrong to cause it to throw an exception and this would help me tremendously so that I can refactor the code. Thank you so very much for all of your help.
