Hi
How do I get a date column in an IB_Grid to allow users to pick the
date?
This thread: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IBObjects/message/27436
suggested that it should happen automatically if my database column
was set to the date data type, but that doesnt appear to be the case
for me.
I tried following the instructions for embeddding the IB_lookupcombo
that seemed relevent to the IB_date, ie place an IB_date on form, set
datasource to the same as the IB_grid and datafield to the date
column, cut the IB_grid, selected the IB_grid then pasted. The IB_Date
automatically located in the correct column, but when i run the
project i dont get any drop down selection or anything
different from the other cells in the grid.
Can someone point me in the direction of what i have done wrong?
Many thanks
Pete
