Because I did not know that it would be a _drop-down_
component....... Ooops..
I had always associated it with the monthcalendar
component that is on the Win32 tab in Delphi. I
did not know that it really was a different type
of component.

Thank you, it works now, as TIB_Date.
(But, anyway, the TIB_Datepicker still does not
work right? I have it unchecked, do not show
check, etc. It still does not seem to be working
right as it seems it should be: Why would it
not place the visible date in the data in _any_
case?)

Thank You
Steve Fields
