Hi every one I’m new on Servoy. I’m a french developper and I apologize in advance for my poor english… I have a problem concerning date fields in Servoy 4.1.4 . I’m using the servoy\_sample\_crm solution to learn servoy developpement and I’m trying to improve it a little bit ! My problem is that not any of my date fields with a calendar type works ! When I click on the little button next to the field, the calendar doesn’t appear ! Is there any one who knows why ? I thank you in advance ! Have a nice day. ---

Is this in Smart Client or Web Client ? Is the button enabled (maybe field is readonly) ? ---

This is in Smart Client and my field is enabled. In web client every page with a date field produces an "internal error " !! ---

You can also check the logs for error, something must go wrong there. servoy\_log.txt is in application\_server folder of the install and .log file is in servoy workspace folder/.metadata . There should be some errors there, I think. ---

If I remember correctly, the forms in the sample crm are readonly if you’re not in add or edit mode. Can you use your calendar field if you press the edit button first? ---

First I’d like to thank you for your help ! This is really nice. I use my calendar field in a dialog form and it doesn’t appear in add and edit mode. I check the log and I keep you in touch !
