The style you probably want is: DTS_SHORTDATECENTURYFORMAT which gives you something like 8/15/2012. If you select the control in Resource Builder there should be something that lets you change styles. Usually resource editors have a status line or tool tip that gives a brief explanation of the different styles. But, I haven't used Resource Builder for 5 or 6 years and don't recall exactly how it is laid out. For what it's worth, I think resEdit is a better resource editor, and it's free. You can download it from: http://www.resedit.net/ resEdit has a list of properties that you can assign to a control, usually on the left hand side. When you click one of the properties in the list, at the bottom is a status area that explains the property. For example with a DateTimePicker, there is the Format property. On the bottom it says: Format - One of: Short date, long date, or Time. The Format property in the list has a drop down combo box that lets you pick: Long Date, Short Date, Time, and Short Date Century. If you pick Short Date Century, resEdit adds the DTS_SHORTDATECENTURYFORMAT style to the control. Most all resource editors work in a similar fashion. You just need to explore in Resource Builder and see what does a similar thing. -- Mark Miesfeld ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
