[Mark]

hi,
isn't it possible to disable the auto-correct feature for a microsoft
access control of date time field?
thanks

If you are talking about the spelling correction, yes.
Set the AllowAutoCorrect property of the text box to No.

If you are talking about NameAutoCorrect, disable under:
Tools | Options | General

If you are tallking about the way Access spins invalid dates around until it
finds some combination it can make sense of, then, No; there is no way to
disable this annoying behavior.

its a very annoying feature, if users regional settings is not the expected
setting he/she enters dates incorrectly, so i want to show the regional
setting string(dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy whatsoever) for displaying near the
date time fields, is it possible?
