We'd like to use comboboxes similar to Outlook in a VFP 6.0 app, for the entry of time values. When I say 'similar to Outlook', I mean the following behaviors:
  • Preset list of times (every half hour or so)

  • User can type in the desired time if it's not displayed. Formatting is updated when they leave the field

  • When the start time is changed, the end time changes accordingly

  • When the start time is changed, the rowsource for the end time combobox is modified to exclude times earlier than listed in the start time combobox

  • If the user wants to change the length of the appointment, they do so by simply changing the end time (via typing or selection), which does not affect the start time.

  • We would like to store the time as a string in the format 'HH:MM AM'

  • Ideally, we want an all-VFP solution


  • Has anyone done this before? Any pointers or gotchas on doing it?
    Thanks!
