This can be very cumbersome. For example in you want to enter 1965 you have to start at 1901, then use year dropdown the date picker and select 1929 then again 1939, 1949 1959 and eventually 1965. Much better I think if you can just free type the exact date you want? </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/date-control-gives-only-20-years-span#post-13884 Thu, 15 Mar 2012 22:44:49 +0000 yuniar 13884@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>When you select the upper limit of the date control, it will automatically adjust the list, so you can select it again and going backward. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/date-control-gives-only-20-years-span#post-13852 Wed, 14 Mar 2012 15:56:02 +0000 alecd4 13852@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I noticed that date control only gives 20 years span. Behaves strangely. How do I use it for birthdays with century span - from 1920 - 2020? </p>
