Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 - Need help!

I am working on a form in Office 365 Excel 2013 that uses the Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0.  When I set the form up last week, this Active X control was working perfectly.  The weekend goes by...and now it's not working at all? 
My PC is 64 bit.  I believe my version of Office is also 64 bit.  When I researched this issue online, I found lots of people who indicated that this control was missing in their development kit.  It was and has always been available in mine
(i.e. I didn't have to load an MSCOMCT2 file).  Further, this control WAS WORKING when I created it last week.  Now it is not, even though no changes have been made to it.  I can place the control on the sheet and even set properties for it. 
But once I click out of Design Mode, it is not functioning.  It doesn't open or respond to any clicks on it. 
Can anyone help me identify a reason why it may have suddenly stopped working?  I don't think it is macro-related because I have a 'Clear Form' button on the same page and it works just fine.
UPDATE:  I've noticed something else peculiar but relevant.  My office 365 just did some updates.  When updates were completed, it auto-reopened my file.  I noticed that the Date/Time Picker button looked funny (really pixelated). 
So I hit 'Design Mode' and resized it.  After I exited 'Design Mode,' it started working again.  I tested it, along with my 'Clear Form' button multiple times.  It seemed to be working fine.  I closed the document and reopened it. 
Enabled Macros.  When I tried to use it after reopen, it doesn't work again.  Won't respond to ANY attempts to click on it. I can click on 'Design Mode' and it sees the control, edits properties, etc.  But when you click out of 'Design Mode,'
it's a dead button again.  I also went to someone else's desk to test this form.  Same problem.  Date/Time picker button doesn't work, even after enabling macros.  The Clear Form Button has no problems though.
Thanks!

Hi,
Would you like to tell me your Excel version number (Go to Account>About Excel). I tested in my version :15.0.4569.1504 and the Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 still could be used.
Then,>> My PC is 64 bit.  I believe my version of Office is also 64 bit.<<  Office 2013 32 bit also could be installed in 64bit operation system. We could check it with Account>About Excel.
Next, as you said >>After I exited 'Design Mode,' it started working again.  I tested it, along with my 'Clear Form' button multiple times.  It seemed to be working fine.  I closed the document and reopened it.  Enabled Macros. 
When I tried to use it after reopen, it doesn't work again.<< 
I recommend we recreate a new blank Excel file and insert the Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 to test.
If it still does not work well, please try to reinstall and re-registry it. Follow the link:

If it works well, I suppose this issue is related to macros. I recommend you post the question to MSDN forum to debug them:

  • Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP6) errors

    One of our functioning VBA projects in Outlook 2010, running under Windows 7 Professional (64-bit), unexpectedly stopped functioning a few months ago. When running the VBA macro we started receiving the compile error message:
    "Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found"
    PROBLEM FORM CONTROL:  The message was extremely frustrating because it gave no detailed indication of the source of the problem.  With a little research, however, we found that the
    Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP6), on a userform accessed by the macro, was generating the error.  A number of older articles, such as the one included below, indicated that we needed
    to re-register the MSCOMCT2.OCX form control, which we did successfully (as did the original author in his question link below).  Unfortunately, as the original author found, simply re-registering the form control did not resolve the problem.
    UNRESOLVED QUESTIONS:
    1. Does anyone know why this functioning control would unexpectedly cease to function?
    2. Can anyone help us restore the functionality of the 'Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP6)'?
    3. How come the form control is listed in the object library, is available in the 'Additional Controls' dialog, and can be inserted into a form, without any indication that it is broken?
    SUPPORT ENGINEER RUN-AROUND:  Another frustration is that a responding support engineer, in the prior article, keeps referring the author back to this forum, yet the question is apparently never answered back here in
    the TechNet forum (which ironically refers us back to the original article in the other forum - a game of musical chairs!).
    We suspect that the solution to this problem may be similar to resolving this issue for other similar form controls in other Office 2010 application, not just Outlook.  After several years, and a myriad questions on the internet regarding
    this exact subject, is there someone who can definitively resolve this issue with this control?
    Thank you for any help.

  • Date selection will not print properly when using Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 in Excel 2010

    I have created a field input worksheet in which the user identifies start and end dates for training sessions, using the Date and Time Picker Active X Control.  It works fine on-screen, but when the worksheets are printed, the dates that were selected
    using the date picker calendar print out in an unreadable, huge font.  The large font also appears in the print preview mode.  I've tried modifying various properties in design mode, but nothing that I have tried will correct the problem. 
    Any ideas?

    The DTPicker seems to have some bugs in it when used on a worksheet. I have overcome the above by setting the size properties to the same size as a cell and the Linked cell property to the
    cell under the DTPicker. (Even setting the Linked cell had problems with an error message referring to the Check box property to be set to true so I just set it to true and inserted the linked cell and set the checkbox property back to
    false.)
    Then the VBA code below that Hides the DTPicker after a date is selected and unhides the DTPicker when the linked cell with the date is selected. The code is for 2 DTPickers so you will need to edit to suit your requirements.
    Caveat: If the DTPicker is visible then you can't hide it by selecting the same date again. If this occurs then it is a multi step operation. First select another date and the DTPicker will hide, then click on another cell then back on the cell with
    the date to unhide the DTPicker and then select the correct date.
    Hope it helps and feel free to get back to me with any questions etc.
    Private Sub DTPicker1_Change()
        Me.DTPicker1.Visible = False
    End Sub
    Private Sub DTPicker2_Change()
        Me.DTPicker2.Visible = False
    End Sub
    Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
        Select Case Target.Address
            Case "$E$5"     'This is the linked cell for DTPicker1
                Me.DTPicker1.Visible = True
            Case "$E$13"    'This is the linked cell for DTPicker2
                Me.DTPicker2.Visible = True
        End Select
    End Sub

  • DATE AND TIME PICKER ACTIVEX NOT WORKING

    The microsoft date and time picker (6.0) is not working in systems which doesnt have MS office. What is the solution to use this in systmes which doesnt have office.

    I'm not sure what the date and time picker does, but if you use an ActiveX object which does not exist on another system, the only way for it to work is to install MS Office on the target machine. The ActiveX component has to be registered on the systems.
    Probably not what you wanted to hear.
    Is there any way you can get what you want without using ActiveX?

  • Issue with Date and Time Picker on Windows 8.1 and Office 2013

    We are having a issue with the Developer tool in Excel called the Date and Time Picker which puts a calendar field into the spreadsheet where you can select a date from the calendar popup
    If we change this date field and then save and close and reopen it reverts back to the previous date before the change was made
    If we do the same process on a Windows 7 machine with Office 2013 it saves the changes we made to the Date and Time picker field

    Hi jdono2,
    I'm using Windows 8 and Office 2013,and I can't reproduce this issue.
    Please make sure you have already upgraded to the latest version of excel, try to reregister the MSCOMCT2.OCX.
    Also you can try to use another date picker add-in to test this issue.

  • Date and Time on Mac OS X and Windows XP running diffrently... (Boot Camp)

    Why the time differently when i change OS? I was used network time server on my both OS, but the time still wrong after i changed operating system... How can i solve this problem?
    Thx.
    Kelvin

    Hi Kelvin,
    The answer to your question lies within the Boot Camp Beta - Installation & Setup Guide. Under the Troubleshooting section on the last page. I quote:
    My computer doesn’t always show the correct date and time.
    The Windows XP and Mac OS X operating systems handle your computer’s date and time information differently, so the date and time may be different when you switch operating systems.
    For best results, use a network time server. Resync the date and time whenever you switch operating systems.
    To resync your date and time:
    In Mac OS X, reset the option to “Set date & time automatically” in the Date & Time pane of System Preferences.
    In Windows, click the Update Now button in the “Date and Time Properties” control panel.
    Alternatively, you can manually set the correct date and time when you switch operating systems.
    End quote

  • Date and Time as Key Figures

    Hi ,
    I have a Cube with Date (DATS Type) and Time (TIMS type) Fileds as KeyFigures.
    I want to load the information from a flat file but when creating the update rules there is no proposal for updating  and by Update Type says "No Update"
    what could be the problem here?
    Thanks in advance
    FedeX

    Hi FedeX,
    Just wanted to add to what has been mentioned by all others.
    When u are creating the update rules..if the message appears as 'Keyfigures are set to no update'..i suspect this could be because u might be havin these keyfigures in the cube but those keyfigures might be missing in ur infosource.
    Also as said ..it makes no real sense adding the date and time keyfigures..
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Marc.

  • Extracting Time without using the System Date and Time

    Hi, can I know how to process a task at this particular time eg. 6PM everyday without using the System Date and Time..
    Do I need to use a Timer to get this done or is there any other solution to do this? Can give me a few hints? Thanks in advance =D

    You could use a timer...assuming you had some good reference point when you started so you would know that from your starting point it's now 6pm.
    I thought I saw you asked this question once already...and you were given a similar answer....I think by Sylviae?

  • Can't change the date and time

    On a recent trip abroad, my N96 automatically switched to the local time on arrival, but it failed to switch back to UK time when I returned. Now my phone is stuck 3 hours ahead, and it won't let me change the date or time manually. When I select Settings | General | Date and time, and click Open, 'Change' flashes up briefly, but even if I'm fast enough to click it, nothing happens.
    I've tried reverting to the Factory Settings, but that did not resolve the problem. I've also checked for Firmware updates, but there aren't any. Any suggestions for fixing this would be very welcome...

    Your operator doesn't seem to support time autoupdate while the operator you connected to while abroad does.
    Go into the clock settings and set auto time update to "off". Then set the time zone to "GMT 0:00 London". This should bring the clock's time back to what it should be. If it doesn't, at least you can do so manually now (having auto time update set to "on" removes your ability to set the date and time manually).

  • Can't change date and time

    Just purchased an Envy 7640. I got it set up correctly to run wirelessly, and can print from all my machines. However, I can't change the date and time. I got into Settings>Preferences>Date and confirm the date and click Done, then go into Time, and change the time, and again click Done. However, it never actually changes, and I see a "Date/Time Not Set" on the main screen.

    Hello @JeffK_1969, 
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that your Envy 7640 is not accepting the date and time.
    I would like to help.
    Reset the printer
    Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
    With the power on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
    Wait 60 seconds.
    Reconnect the power cord to rear of the printer.
    Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
    Then try to set the date and time again.
    If it still will not accept teh date and time, I would call technical support,

  • Can not set date and time

    i can't not set date and time i live in florida and i am visiting hawaii.Brought my apple tv and airport express , created my own network to watch my apple tv but unable to set date and time on my apple tv.Pleas help.

    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • Current Date and Time control

    Hi,
    I'm using the Current Date control on my form.  This is OK for the date but I need the current time on a seperate control.
    I see it has binding options in the Object section ie date, date and time and time but only date seems to work.
    Does anyone know how I can set this to display the time only?
    thanks
    Paul

    Yes, that should be the answer.  But, as I said, when I select time only it still displays date and time.
    In the 'Value' tab, I've been trying different settings.  I set Type to User Entered options and Calculated options.  I only get a blank unless I set this to "Calculated - Read Only" and set the runtime property to the only option available which is 'Current Date/Time'
    So, there must be another setting that I need?
    thanks,
    Paul
