+
+
+The TQDateEdit class provides a date editor.
+<p>
+
+
+<p> TQDateEdit allows the user to edit dates by using the keyboard or
+the arrow keys to increase/decrease date values. The arrow keys
+can be used to move from section to section within the TQDateEdit
+box. Dates appear in accordance with the local date/time settings
+or in year, month, day order if the system doesn't provide this
+information. It is recommended that the TQDateEdit be initialised
+with a date, e.g.
+<p> <pre>
+ TQDateEdit *dateEdit = new TQDateEdit( TQDate::<a href="qdate.html#currentDate">currentDate</a>(), this );
+ dateEdit-&gt;<a href="#setRange">setRange</a>( TQDate::<a href="qdate.html#currentDate">currentDate</a>().addDays( -365 ),
+ TQDate::<a href="qdate.html#currentDate">currentDate</a>().addDays( 365 ) );
+ dateEdit-&gt;<a href="#setOrder">setOrder</a>( TQDateEdit::<a href="#Order-enum">MDY</a> );
+ dateEdit-&gt;<a href="#setAutoAdvance">setAutoAdvance</a>( TRUE );
+ </pre>
+
+<p> Here we've created a new TQDateEdit object initialised with today's
+date and restricted the valid date range to today plus or minus
+365 days. We've set the order to month, day, year. If the auto
+advance property is TRUE (as we've set it here) when the user
+completes a section of the date, e.g. enters two digits for the
+month, they are automatically taken to the next section.
+<p> The maximum and minimum values for a date value in the date editor
+default to the maximum and minimum values for a <a href="qdate.html">TQDate</a>. You can
+change this by calling <a href="#setMinValue">setMinValue</a>(), <a href="#setMaxValue">setMaxValue</a>() or <a href="#setRange">setRange</a>().
+<p> Terminology: A TQDateEdit widget comprises three 'sections', one
+each for the year, month and day. You can change the separator
+character using TQDateTimeEditor::setSeparator(), by default the
+separator will be taken from the systems settings. If that is
+not possible, it defaults to "-".

+<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="Order-enum"></a>TQDateEdit::Order</h3>
+
+<p> This enum defines the order in which the sections that comprise a
+date appear.
+<ul>
+<li><tt>TQDateEdit::MDY</tt> - month-day-year
+<li><tt>TQDateEdit::DMY</tt> - day-month-year
+<li><tt>TQDateEdit::YMD</tt> - year-month-day (the default)
+<li><tt>TQDateEdit::YDM</tt> - year-day-month (included for completeness; but should
+not be used)
+</ul>
+<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQDateEdit"></a>TQDateEdit::TQDateEdit ( <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )

+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Constructs a date editor with the initial value <em>date</em>, parent <em>parent</em> and called <em>name</em>.
+<p> The date editor is initialized with <em>date</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQDateEdit"></a>TQDateEdit::~TQDateEdit ()

+digits in the range current year - 70 to current year + 29.
+<li> If the year has three digits in the range 100..999, the
+current millennium, i.e. 2000, will be added giving a year
+in the range 2100..2999.
+<li> If the day or month is 0 then it will be set to 1 or the
+minimum valid day\month in the range.
+</ul>

+
+<hr><h2>Property Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="autoAdvance-prop"></a>autoAdvance</h3>
+<p>This property holds whether the editor automatically advances to the next section.
+<p>If autoAdvance is TRUE, the editor will automatically advance
+focus to the next date section if a user has completed a section.
+The default is FALSE.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setAutoAdvance">setAutoAdvance</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#autoAdvance">autoAdvance</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qdate.html">TQDate</a> <a name="date-prop"></a>date</h3>
+<p>This property holds the editor's date value.
+<p>If the date property is not valid, the editor displays all zeroes
+and <a href="#date">TQDateEdit::date</a>() will return an invalid date. It is strongly
+recommended that the editor is given a default date value (e.g.
+currentDate()). That way, attempts to set the date property to an
+invalid date will fail.
+<p> When changing the date property, if the date is less than
+<a href="#minValue">minValue</a>(), or is greater than <a href="#maxValue">maxValue</a>(), nothing happens.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setDate">setDate</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#date">date</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qdate.html">TQDate</a> <a name="maxValue-prop"></a>maxValue</h3>
+<p>This property holds the editor's maximum value.
+<p>Setting the maximum date value for the editor is equivalent to
+calling <a href="#setRange">TQDateEdit::setRange</a>( <a href="#minValue">minValue</a>(), <em>d</em> ), where <em>d</em> is the
+maximum date. The default maximum date is 8000-12-31.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#minValue-prop">minValue</a> and <a href="#setRange">setRange</a>().
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setMaxValue">setMaxValue</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#maxValue">maxValue</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qdate.html">TQDate</a> <a name="minValue-prop"></a>minValue</h3>
+<p>This property holds the editor's minimum value.
+<p>Setting the minimum date value is equivalent to calling
+<a href="#setRange">TQDateEdit::setRange</a>( <em>d</em>, <a href="#maxValue">maxValue</a>() ), where <em>d</em> is the minimum
+date. The default minimum date is 1752-09-14.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#maxValue-prop">maxValue</a> and <a href="#setRange">setRange</a>().
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setMinValue">setMinValue</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#minValue">minValue</a>().
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qdateedit.html#Order-enum">Order</a> <a name="order-prop"></a>order</h3>
+<p>This property holds the order in which the year, month and day appear.
+<p>The default order is locale dependent.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#Order-enum">Order</a>.
+
+<p>Set this property's value with <a href="#setOrder">setOrder</a>() and get this property's value with <a href="#order">order</a>().
