GUICtrlCreateDate and GUICtrlSetData

[loud]

Hello guys, I've been having trouble with a script of mine, let me explain.

I'm creating my GUI DTPicker items:

$dateTime1 = GUICtrlCreateDate("05:00:00", 260, 196, 75, 20, $DTS_TIMEFORMAT)
$dateTime2 = GUICtrlCreateDate("07:00:00", 260, 222, 75, 20, $DTS_TIMEFORMAT)

Then I'm changing their format:

GUICtrlSendMsg($dateTime1, 0x1032, 0, "HH:mm:ss")
GUICtrlSendMsg($dateTime2, 0x1032, 0, "HH:mm:ss")

Now let's say I've got a button that calls:

Func ChgTime()
    GUICtrlSetData($dateTime1, "12:00:00")
    GUICtrlSetData($dateTime2, "13:00:00")
    MsgBox(0, "Test", "Test OK")
EndFun

The MsgBox pops up, but the Date is not changed, and @error returns 0. Am I doing (or thinking) something wrong?

I don't know what 0x1032 is but I would have expected you needed the message $DTM_SETFORMAT which is 0x1005.

The format string must have non-formatting characters in single quotes, and the last parameter cannot be a string, it must be a pointer to a string. So I would expect that you need something like this

Const $DTM_SETFORMAT = 0x1005;might already be in an include
$Tstring = "hh':'mm':'ss"
$dsStruct = DllCreatestruct("char[" & Stringlen($Tstring) + 1 & "]")
Dllstructsetdata($dsStruct,1,$Tstring)
$pds = Dllstructgetptr($dsStruct)
GUICtrlSendMsg($dateTime1,$DTM_SETFORMAT , 0, $pds)
$dsStruct = 0;delete the struct

But since I'm eager to go to bed I haven't tried this.
