>I was looking through a bunch of the OLE controls in the VFP library and ran across one called DTPicker. It can be used as either a date or time selector. It seems to look and act exactly like the one I had in mind to use with my project, but there's one problem: I can't figure out how to return the current value of the DTPicker box! There are minute, hour, day, month, etc fields, but they're write only. There is no value field.

Use OLEControl.Object.Value where OLEControl is the name of the Date/Time Picker control that you instantiate. The data type of this value is time.
