Remarks

To create a date and time picker control

  1. Call CDateTimeCtrl to construct a CDateTimeCtrl object.

  2. Call this member function, which creates the Windows date and time picker control and attaches it to the CDateTimeCtrl object.

When you call Create, the common controls are initialized.

Example

// choose an arbitrary rectangle for creation
CRect rect(20, 20, 120, 45);
m_DateTimeCtrl.Create(WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | WS_TABSTOP | DTS_SHOWNONE | 
   DTS_SHORTDATEFORMAT, rect, this, IDC_DATETIMECTRL);
