Date/Time entry not available on Windows Mobile 6.1 (CE) device

Hi,

It seems that it is not possible to enter the hour and minute digits for a date/time field using ArcGIS Mobile on Windows Mobile 6.1 Classic. Only date (YY-MM-DD) digits are supported, no edit fields are displayed to enter the time. It shows a very simple calendar picker control only ...

Time edit fields are displayed on Windows 32-bit.

Do i need to install a Microsoft component or framework?

Thanks

Fred

Fred,

A long time ago I know but did you come up with a work around for this? It is a real problem not being able to enter or modify the time in the Date field on Win Mobile.

The other, worse problem with date field is that it just defaults to now. Is there a way to make it default to null? Often we have date fields that should often be left blank (like a task completion date, time signs put up, if put up at all) so this makes th eapplication useless. Only option is to use text fields for date and time, not a very good option.

Thanks
Mick
