Screen Date field and F4 calendar

Question

We are on v6.4.  I am trying to add a date field to a screen that is not defined in the dictionary.
The field resides in an internal record of a db table as follows:
mt_int_rec        LIKE zcrd_intrate,
zcrd_intrate is defined as:
                     MANDT
                     RECTYP     
                     FICO_HIGH
                     FICO_LOW
                     TERM_HIGH
                     TERM_LOW
                     LTV_HIGH
                     LTV_LOW
                     EFF_DT_HIGH       Z_EFF_DATE_HIGH         DATS     8     DATUM
                     EFF_DT_LOW       Z_EFF_DATE_LOW         DATS     8     DATUM
     INT_RATE
     DATECR
     TIMECR
     USERCR
     DATECH
     TIMECH
     USERCH
I'm adding mt_int_rec-EFF_DT_HIGH and mt_int_rec-EFF_DT_LOW to a sub-screen.
When adding the 2 date fields to the sub-screen from the mt_int_rec, I can't seem to get the F4 ability to provide the standard calendar drop down.  I know I've done this before and the solution was pretty simple, but it's been over a year since I've had to maintain a screen in ABAP.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
