DateTimeSpinbox.cc (vers. 10)

Once more into the breach, dear friends ... here 'tis. The latest 
version. I think I've addressed all the issues, added some comments 
explaining that the control does not change your system display 
defaults, and so on ...

Um, it would help if I attached the code, wouldn't it? (sigh)

Problem is that the container doesn't have an onGotFocus event -- if it 
did, I could do something with that ... if you TAB to the first 
entryfield, all is well ... if, in your pushbutton code you do something 
like:

form.DateTimeSpinbox1.DatePT1EF.setFocus()

That should work too ...

Version 10 appears to work, but I need three attempt to change a date value
because it is so
fiddely. It is certainly not a userfriendly contol. It worked better in one of
the previous versions
where for example the month part was selected and could be changed in the first
attempt.

I will leave it at that and hope that somebody else will step in with comments
and test results.
