The timezone was the problem - thanks a ton. It is working fine now.

Chiph - that does help somewhat - my date convert fine except for the hour - the other components - including the min and second are fine - the hour is always 7-8 + of what it should be so if the date is 01/01/2003 1:1:1 it will convert as 01/01/2003 8:1:1. Any suggestions?

Thanks - using keypreview and keypress works for the keyboard events - but does not work for the mouse. How can I capture the mouse click events for the entire application?

That piece of code does work. But the problem is that I am using a third party control which brings up the windows print dialog. But even if I set the paper orientation before calling the function that displays the dialog, the dialog always shows the default printer orientation and not the...

Thanks, I found the controls and managed to do what I wanted too.

I read this tip about using a DBCombo to have a hidden field (as a bound column) and another as the ListField. But the DBCombo works only with the Data Control not the ADO Data Control. I hunted for but could not find a combo control that bound to ADO DataControl. Any suggestions?
