How to insert the date into a date field in a dialog

#1

I want to display today's date in a date field in a dialog. So before
displaying the dialog I have code like (3 different ways of trying to do
it):

Can some kind soul please tell me what I'm doing wrong? And how to do it
right?

Hello Peter,

could be something like this:

DIM unoDate
unoDate = createUnoStruct("com.sun.star.util.Date")
unoDate.Year = Year(Date)
unoDate.Month = Month(Date)
unoDate.Day = Day(Date)

unoDate is now the date, which should be put into the field:
oDateControl.Date = unoDate

Haven't tested this before for Dialogs, but the start with unoDate
works for forms.

Regards

Robert

Thanks Robert.

That works fine. Someone else on the LO Ask platform also suggested

which also seems to work OK. (I don't think you need the View - it seems to
work either way).
