SYMPTOMS

When using the Date Time Picker Control in a Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 AppWizard (exe) Database project, you may receive the following error:

Compiler Error "Error C2065: 'DDX_FieldDateTimeCtrl' : undeclared identifier"

CAUSE

The database dialog data exchange cover routine generated by the Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 AppWizard for exchanging data between the Date Time Picker control and the recordset member variable is DDX_FieldDateTimeCtrl( ). This function is omitted from the Visual C++ 6.0 release code.

RESOLUTION

Replace the database dialog data exchange cover routine DDX_FieldDateTimeCtrl( ) with the AFXAPI DDX_DateTimeCtrl( ). Remove the fourth parameter in the DDX_DateTimeCtrl() call.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a table with a Date/Time field.
Create a Data Source to access the table.
In Visual C++ 6.0, create an MFC AppWizard(exe) project to access the table created in step 1 using the DSN created in step 2.
Add a Data Time Picker Control to the dialog box and associate it with the Date/Time field in the table.
Compile the project.

RESULTS: This generates the following compiler error:

error C2065: 'DDX_FieldDateTimeCtrl' : undeclared identifier
