Rob,
I think it is locale dependent.
When you write "as date" I think it returns the value according to your specific settings.
Thanks to you guys, I had a nice lesson.
I am not going to use this now, but as a matter of curiosity I tried to set the DatePicker to a certain date.
I could not do it. May be it should be formatted or something, but all calls seem to return an error.
Ahh! Rob, when you used "stringFromDate" you used "stringFromDate_" how did you know to add the underscore?
I did not see anything about it.
Sorry being a pest, but I am beginning to expand my views of programming to include a decent UI.
Thanks very much!
