High fives, Bill and Mike, Since we're on the subject of time, is there a way to pick a time of the day in clock fashion like we can pick dates from the calendar (getdate function)? And, as I suspect the answer is no as I have found nothing so far, is there a way to create a table with all time options (in, say 15 min increments) for a user to pick with a choose command (short of entering every iteration directly in a table)? I have replaced my date input fields with the getdate command and need some equivalent to enter the time (as in: pickup date, pickup time, delivery date, delivery time). All dates and times are in the future.
Thanks for any insight.
