set the date in a date field : NOT autoit picker

[yaso 0]

I am trying to set the date in a date picker field not created by autoit (shown in the attached images).

I did not create this field. It already exists in the window.

I used the following code:

; enter from date

$sFromDate  = "09/01/2017"
ControlFocus($hWnd, "", "WindowsForms10.SysDateTimePick32.app.01")
ControlSetText($hWnd, "", "WindowsForms10.SysDateTimePick32.app.01", $sFromDate )

As the AutoIt Window Info gave me info about the control but not the specific items ( month/day/year) inside the control.

How to set the date?

Thanks.
