Hi all,

I recently made a Windows 7 system-style timestamp control as an update to the XP-style timestamp control shown here: XP Style Timestamp Control

As far as I know, this is the only system-style control missing from The "Missing" System Control Suite

See the attached screenshot...

Please try it out and let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback!

Nice, but there are two things

  1. The up/down arrows don't like Resizing of the control.
  2. If you don't display the time (only show the date), then the up/down arrows extend beyond the box (also related to resizing of the time display)

Thank you for the suggestions! I didn't even notice those issues...I made the increment/decrement arrows small like they are in the system spin control and now they don't stick out beyond the box as you mentioned. I also moved them to the left side so they stay in place when resizing...I don't know why that doesn't work when they're on the right. I did like that look much better, but at least this is still better than nothing!
