Are you shure GetObjectPtr works as expected? In the way you use it it can't set fldStartDay since you can't change parameters of functions. Perhaps you should declare and use it like fldStartDay = GetObjectPtr(TXTSTARTDAY); In the code you posted fldStartDay is never defined. -- Mit freundlichen Gr��en Helmut A.
