Question On Date Picker Control

[Hack]

The gray circle signifies the current Value of the date picker. There is no way to get rid of it by setting a property. There may be a way using the API or Subclassing the control.

Which means you should be able to get rid of it by doing

Private Sub Form_Load()
DTPicker1.Value = Format(Now, "mm/dd/yyyy")
End Sub

You could also use the CloseUp event that is fired when the drop-down is closed.

That also doesn't help if the user simply punches in the date (which is also why the changed event is better than the click even to detect changes.)

Which means you should be able to get rid of it by doing

Private Sub Form_Load()
DTPicker1.Value = Format(Now, "mm/dd/yyyy")
End Sub

Close your mouth, you will attract files...

What is so hard to understand? If you set the default value to today, then you get the little red circle, but not the little gray circle.

That only works for tri-occular frogs... not gnomes....
