Default Datepicker

So I should design the form using the seperate read layout, then activate the
read layout and everything should copy over?

But when I copy that control and paste it on reply side of the form it

in when they pick a date on the compose I want that exact same date they
picked to be duplicated to the reply side when I answer the form and send it
back.

The reply side acts like a completely new control box w/no relation to the
compose side. I have done the copy and paste for other controls that do mimic
each other just fine except in this case.

I'm using Outlook 2002 on Windows XP Pro if that has anything to do with it.

Any advice appreciated yet again.

That is because it is a completely new control. What you need to do is design
the common elements of the form before you split the form into a compose and
read form. That way, the contents of the control will autoload into the similar
control on the read page.
