DateTime

One of my fields in the table, used as a data source, is of type DateTime. By default the field displays just a date, no time. What should I do to split this field into two seperate fields; data and time? Should I use the UnboundFields to do so? If so do you have any examples of how to use the Unbound Fields? The documentation is spaty at best. How do I initialize the value of the UnboundFields?

    I don't know what "spaty" means, but I assume it's not good. Stick out tongue

    I actually had an issue today, trying to include the same column twice in a field layout. I was just testing, but it showed the ig binding mechanism is not happy to see the same field listed twice, which means you couldn't create a couple of converters to format the field in different ways.

    I haven't tried dealing with times yet, so this is pure guess work...

    could you live with a combined field? If so, I posted a response today wherein I converted a boolean to a string, which allowed a converter to display "yes" or "no" instead of a checkbox. The same could probably work for this; specify the editor as a string type and then convert the datetime to a string.

    There's probably an easier way, but I think tihs would work.
