Thank you for the explanation in previous email and this code.

Got it all working for my use case, but a couple more issues.

1) I am using a fudge factor of 24 to account for the combobox drop down 
arrow button. I can't find a pixel metric for it. Is there a better way 
of getting the width

2) For some reason, if I click in the line edit part of the dateedit the 
spin box controls are drawn and they fill the entire width between the 
date text and line edit right hand side. BTW I have set 
setCalanderPopup(true).

They all point to "42" ;-)
