Possible values are "dropdown" and "modal".

Default is "modal".

When set to "modal", the calendar is intrusive to the DATETIMEEDIT field: Once the calendar opens, the user must validate the date selection by clicking the OK button, or keep the current field value by clicking the Cancel button.

When set to "dropdown", the calendar is less intrusive: The user can type directly into the DATETIMEEDIT field. A single click on a date validates and closes the calendar. There is no way to cancel the selected date.
