Ajá, y ScanDate utiliza TryEncodeDate:

Código Delphi [-]
function TryEncodeDate(Year, Month, Day: Word; out Date: TDateTime): Boolean;
var
  I: Integer;
  DayTable: PDayTable;
begin
  Result := False;
  DayTable := @MonthDays[IsLeapYear(Year)];
  if (Year >= 1) and (Year <= 9999) and (Month >= 1) and (Month <= 12) and
    (Day >= 1) and (Day <= DayTable^[Month]) then
  begin
    for I := 1 to Month - 1 do Inc(Day, DayTable^[i]);
    I := Year - 1;
    Date := I * 365 + I div 4 - I div 100 + I div 400 + Day - DateDelta;
    Result := True;
  end;
end;
