**Tim Lakinir** · 14 Aug 2019, 02:06 PM

Now the problem is that when I clicked on a BLANK cell in column 1 ( where the date entries ) and the little datepicker dropdown window is displayed.
The today's date is shown.

But when I did not select any date on this datepicker window, and then I click on another cell say in column 2 (country entry) or column 0 (text entry) that the
date on previous cell became automatically updated to become Today's date ?

By logic, since I did not pick a date on the datepicker window, the cell should not display any date and should remain blank. But this is not the case?

See the sequence of images below when I click a Blank cell

Step 1 before I click a blank cell in the Date column :

Step 2 : When I pick a cell and the date picker window is display but I did not select a date

Step 3 : Here I clicked on the cell besides the date but the today's date gotten display in the previous cell !

How do I modify the code to prevent automatic selection of datepicker's values ?
Is there any style or commands that I can use
