    Calendar icon showing and not showing on the same form.

    I have a form display a series of dates from one table. The last date on the form shows a calendar icon to pick a date, none of the other date fields displaying the form have the icon. Why is the one field showing the icon and the others not? Or, how do I remove the icon from the one field that is showing it?

    What does the ShowDatePicker property say for each?

    For Dates (all date fields have the sane Date Picker option)

    I just noticed this. All the date fields are defined as "Short Date" with a short date mask. When I click in the date fields where the calendar icon is not showing I see the mask displayed, however when I click in the field where the date icon is showing, I don't see the mask.

    The InputMask property is set? Then I guess input mask trumps. Users are expected to type input.

    But they all have the same input mask.

    You are correct the input mask does trump the calendar icon. Thanks for the help.
