Hi Dipankar

We have something called Calender Class... Have U Heared of it?

We have sample code and form available in forms Demo itself. You can just use that form in your application.

Thanks

For the date item take a trigger "KEY-LISTVAL" and use CALENDER.SHOW;

In the properties pallet of the date item,under List of Values Select:

List of values: Enable_list_lamp
Validate from list: No

This should enable a calender.

Hope this helps
