Hello,

I use the DateTime widget in my application.
I instanciate it as following:
new DateTime (parent, SWT.BORDER | SWT.DROP_DOWN);

Can I load this widget with no default value rather than the current date?

Thx for the answer.
I will use the DateChooser component from nebula library.

Is it possible to SET the DateTime to current? When I use this and a new
form is instantiated, it is already set to current time, but I want the user
to be able to refresh the widget to the current time.

To do this you need to get the current date/time from Java with a line like
below, and then set the DateTime control's values accordingly.

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
