thanks for your answer !
I have tried the unbound TIB_Date control but now I have 2 problems.

1)
I used the OnChange event and in the event-procedure IB_Date.text has stran=
ge values. In addition to that the OnChange event is always called twice if =
I press a key to change the date (not if I click the open calendar). This is=
also true for the bound control.

to explain the strange values look at this onChange proc
procedure TForm1.DateTimeChange(Sender: TObject);
Begin
Showmessage('.Text='+dtp.Text+' .Edittext='+dtp.EditText)
end;

my Dateformat is dd.mm.yyyy
if I change 27.11.2001 to 26.11.2001 (overwrite the 7)
2 messageboxes appear
1st: .Text=2..1..001 .Edittext=2.11.2001
2nd: .Text=26.11.2001 .Edittext=26.11.2001

the second time OnChange is called everything is fine

2)
I have to change all DateTimePicker.date to StrToDate(IB_Date.text)
(perhaps I add a property .date to TIB_Date)

to Spou:
I know the RXLib but I want don´t want to mix different db-aware and non-db=
-aware DatePick controls
thanks
