I think if you put the date picker in a container like a Div or Panel and control the width of that then it'll work for you better.

I would avoid the built in date picker.  Try using either straight dojo which I think works better or even some opensource datepicker project.  Either should not be too difficult to integrate in I wouldn't think.

thanks for your response / suggestions. I have created panel and div but in this case alos helper button is going in next line. Is this possible to keep helper button next to the editbox being used for date picker?

How can I use Dojo date picker? special configurations required or same will help.

I am waiting for your prompt response

best Regards,

I wrote an old blogpost about this with some code. That should fix the problem.

or you could upgrade to Domino 9.01 I believe it's fixed there

try to set width of the control by percentage.

I put the date control inside a table cell, set the width of the control, and then set the table cell options to "No Wrap".
