editbox

[jayjay60]

I have created a dlgbox where i put edit box and button. In one of the edit box, i have attached a COleDateTime variable to it. So, the variable is initialized with GetCurrentlyDate, and keep this value all the time whatever i do to change it, it recognizes only the today date and just this date. It's problem for me because i want to be able to change the date and to use this new date for others parts of my application. How could i do that?

thanks in advance

This first application it's just a test so i want to know if it understand correctly what i want, so i just use AfxMessageBox, to return the date after i have changed its format to a string. And, all the time, the message box return to me 13/07/01, whatever the date was put, so where is the problem?

Have you used UpdateData() to transfer the modified values?

Just a hint. s-)

The problem is what the date variable has sence only in declare place. Once decl;ared it doesn't change. All variables lifetime it is nonvolatile. If your variable is a class member, the variable will be constant. When you are using a function, you could get a volatile date, wich has sence at return time. John Fill
