Greetings,
Has anyone ever successfully used the win32 tab's
TDateTimePicker with a "Windows Long" date format?
I ask, because its appearance is foul -- instead of showing
something like:
Tuesday, 21 May 2001
it *justifies* the text to the full width of the control, thus showing
something like:
Tuesday , 21 May 2001
It looks pug-ugly and unprofessional, but I can't seem to find a way
to affect the display, other than selecting short date format, which
is not wanted. It's not caused by Windows date/time format
settings, because they don't have spurious spaces etc. In fact, I
believe the behaviour is wired deep in Comctrl32.dll, because a
VC++ app using the same core control has the same nasty
behaviour.
Yet, I've seen other applications with a nice long date format, so...
...any clues hot to pummel THIS control into shape, anyone?
TIA.
cheers,
peter
