Hi, While (at last) I’am approaching a v0.1 of my app, I have an headache with a date picker. This ‘date picker’ is within an inline list with an other entry field; it should populate a dedicated ‘date’ field in the dataeditor. > The other entry field works well, but for the ‘date’, when I enter a date (today or any other ones in the future), it disapears after a few seconds. [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tGp21DumGK5VuvgzJGxw\_FuxGF8CNEA6/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tGp21DumGK5VuvgzJGxw_FuxGF8CNEA6/view?usp=sharing) Do you have any clue ? Thanks ---

Admittedly I have never experienced this with a datetime component but this might be the same. > [@Show another sheet column in Form](https://community.glideapps.com/t/show-another-sheet-column-in-form/10187/20): > > It´s what I call a ping pong effect. I have seen this before when an APP has multiple choices and relations Here you can see this annoying effect [https://dynchoices.glideapp.io](https://dynchoices.glideapp.io) If you select an option, the relation works but there is a delay to read/write the final value and meanwhile, the old value comes back and changes the screen. I have thought it could be a failure caused by internet speed (sometines the ping pong effect appears at beggining and later, everything works fine)… ---

Could you please post a screenshot of the “date column” from both the editor and the gsheet. ---

I’ve shown the same thing here: > [@Error saving date in "Column is user-specific"](https://community.glideapps.com/t/error-saving-date-in-column-is-user-specific/10899/10): > > I tried out your app a little bit yesterday and today. This is definitely weird. I was able to add dates, then they would all clear out. I let it sit for a bit, but they would only refill with my previously selected values when I refreshed the app. First enter date: A few seconds later, they wipe out: Waited 5 minutes for a possible refresh. Still no change. It wasn’t until I refreshed the browser window that I was able to come back in and see the dates: ---

Yes, you’re right, it’s exactly this. And I notice indeed that after a night the value are in the dataeditor, see picture (so equivalent to your ‘refresh’ I suppose). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/ca49d69474693f4ec6f5c7dd2486d8ec056eb18e.png) For me it’s a little issue: all my app is relying upon this ‘date select’ … (and I would like to avoid adding another form). Is Glide team working on it? Thanks ---

Hi @Mark Do you plan a fix on this issue? It’s the basis of my app (objective is to display event based upon a user’s selected date).

Could you please share your app and let me know exactly how to reproduce this? ---

The app is: [https://bacobazik.glideapp.io/](https://bacobazik.glideapp.io/) To reproduce the issue: - ‘Hamburger menu’ \> clic on “Mon Parcours” - clic on one item of the in-line lists (all structured the same way) - activate the toggle “_A mettre dans mes défis_” - Field “_Fréquence_”: enter a number > (by the way, you’ll see here the bug (?) that I mentionned in another post: the “e” letter can be typed in the ‘number entry’ field) - Field “_Date de départ_”: select one, and wait \>\> **sometimes** the date disapears, then come back; sometimes it appears after refresh; sometimes it works as it should be… a total mystery. Thanks
