c.haslam Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) No, I'm not kidding. It seems that $DTS_SHORTDATECENTURYFORMAT is not in any of the included files, but it shown in the help for _GUICtrlDTP_Create. And how do I disable the DTP control. (I realize that $inpDate is a handle.)

c.haslam Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Sorry about that. I copied and pasted from SciTe. Somehow the names of the included files went missing. I try again (and manually enter filenames): CODE#include <GUIConstants.au3> #include <GuiDateTimePicker.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Global $dlgXCopy = GUICreate("XCopy", 588, 705, -1,-1) ; centred Global $hndInpDate = _GUICtrlDTP_Create($dlgXCopy,144, 232,120,25,$DTS_SHORTDATECENTURYFORMAT) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ExitLoop EndSwitch WEnd GUIDelete() Off-topic: I used Insert Codebox. SHould I be using something else to put code into a topic?

SHould I be using something else to put code into a topic?You can use [autoit ]insert code[ /autoit](without space) or the code brackets you used for the code. The value is 0xC for DTS_SHORTDATECENTURYFORMAT As I said, I have an old beta... mine doesn't have a value and no reference to it in GUI Styles, just a reference to the value on line 61 of the suggested #include... I don't know if it's in either of the 2 other releases or not. I did read that Comctl32.dll must be older than 5.8 for this style, so if it was omitted for any reason, that is why I would assume.

GaryFrost Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Looks like either a type-o in the help or the include, I'll have to figure it out. What is declared in the include is $DTS_SHORTDATECENTFORMAT SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

c.haslam Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Thanks. I had forgotten about WinSetState(). On my PC, both GUICtrlCreateDate() and _GUICtrlDTP_Create() show the date in yyyy-mm-dd format. I see that _GUICtrlDTP_GetSystemTime(GUICtrlGetHandle(...)) can be used with GUICtrlCreateDate().
