I need a date dropdown list and a time dropdown list

I can create a combobox with my own custom drop down list, but there has to
be built in drop down lists available... i.e. date. How do I turn a blank
combobox into a combobox that will allow the user to select a date from the
dropdown list? Or even the little calendar that allows you to select a date
from the calendar (like in an Outlook appointment)?? I looked into fields,
but haven't been able to find how they can be applied to this. (I can get a
control to display a field, but don't know how to get the dropdown list, or
how to change the field using the control.) I also need a dropdown list with
time.

After searching this forum a little, I found that there is no date picker
control for outlook forms. PLEASE let me know if this is a false statement...
I am not opposed to trying something a little more complex or tricky (i.e.
using something other than a traditional outlook form???) to get what I need.

There is no date picker, you have to use a 3rd party control. In Outlook
2007 there's a date picker but it's only supported for use in Outlook 2007
Form Regions.

Search at www.outlookcode.com for date picker and review that information.

When posting always post the Outlook version to be supported, what language
and API you are using and pick the correct group. For Outlook forms the
group would be microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms.
