Mysql DateFields

I am using Lazarus 0.9.28.2 on a Fedora 12 System. MySQL version 5.1.47.

I have a table with a date field in it which I am unable to update using a tDBEdit. No matter what date format I try to use it seems to fail. This has become an irritant and is forcing me to run a query to convert a string representation of the date into the date format. This requires more columns in the table and a less clean implementation of the application. Fortunately the amount of data is small for this app.

i don't have experience with lazarus, but on windows, i should go with TDateTimePicker... i bet there's one on lazarus...

edits are very bad way to enter TDateTime...

I had tried that & it wasn't working either. I haven't tried it under Windows yet, but on Linux/Lazarus it does appear to be broken.
