Sorry, I have problems to understand what you want to realize. Have you
looked at the examples from the SWT snippets list, first:

http://www.eclipse.org/swt/snippets/#datetime

?

It is also useful to study the widget documentation. Quoting:

"Styles:
DATE, TIME, CALENDAR, SHORT, MEDIUM, LONG, DROP_DOWN
[..]
Note: Only one of the styles DATE, TIME, or CALENDAR may be specified,
and only one of the styles SHORT, MEDIUM, or LONG may be specified. The
DROP_DOWN style is a HINT, and it is only valid with the DATE style."

Until recently Windows was the only platform that showed the drop-down
calendar because it is the only platform that provides this natively. This
case was recently fixed on the other platforms by showing an emulated
calendar instead. The bug report is
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=277638 , which has Target
Milestone is 3.7M4, so it will not appear in an official release until June
2011. If you want to see it in action in the meantime then you can download
a 3.7-stream integration build.
