I've just knocked upa quick test. Dropped two | TDateTimePickers on the form, added you function and called it, passing the | value of the first DateTimePicker - doesn't seem to do anything. Then tried | calling your code, then assigning a blank value to the DateTimePicker - now | I get the usual exception about invalid date. Sorry, can you give me some | more pointers, Aha. The code I supplied is to prevent the GPF caused by pulling a blank one down and then putting it back up again. This is not your problem. I can see what the sticking point is - how do you define an "unpopulated date" and get it to appear blank on the date time picker component. Tricky. First, tell me what a blank date means to your app. Does it mean a date before time began, or today, or what? We'll take it from there. -- Mark Jacobs DK Computing http://www.dkcomputing.co.uk markj atty critical dotty co dotty uk
