ultimately going to stick a ODBCDateTime object into a database, but
first I have to create it.
My workflow is such that the user selects the date from a widget
(system creates the object using createDate()). On the next page (this
is a wizard type of thing, don't get me started) the user sets the
time of a meeting. So now I have a date object with the actual date
of the meeting, and I want to set the time in that date object so I
can feed it to createODBCDateTime and stuff it into a database.
