If I leave the dateField objects enabled: <mx:DateField id="dtCmplxStartDate" enabled="true" />
then from the function: dtCmplxStartDate.selectedDate = tempStrtDt; the gui shows the date in the textInput part of the dateField component. All I have to change is <mx:DateField id="dtCmplxStartDate" enabled="false"/> and dtCmplxStartDate.selectedDate = tempStrtDt; does not show date in gui.
