I'm developing a c++ application using Visual Studio 2003. I have a dialog in my application with a date/time control on it. The date/time control allows you to select 1 of 3 different display formats (short date, long date, and time). I set the format to long date, compile my program and everything works fine. But the next time I open my dialog window in the dialog editor, the date/time control has reverted back to it's default display format (short date). Why isn't this property staying put on format I want. I keep having to change the date format back to long date before each compile and it's getting really irritating.
Thanks!

If you mean the date picker control you can define the default in the properties page of the resource editor.
