Want to see a Pick a Time button on places where you want to enter a time

Many places in Salesforce that you want to enter a date, thre is a CurrentDate link that you can click to add today's date. Likewise, there is a CurrentTime link that you can click to add the current time. Though on the Date field, there is a Pick a Date button, the Time field does not have a Pick a Time button.

It would be a great timesaver if I could just click the button and select a time instead of having to take my hands off the mouse and type a time.

nmcconnell 12/06/06	Also would be nice to have spin buttons to quickly move a date or time up down with a simple click
sparky Jan 31	This also applies to date/time fields on custom objects. They're a bear to do data entry on, as they require a very particular format but there's no shortcut. Plus they pop the calendar, and when you pick a date it automatically sets the time to the current time. Bad. If you have a date/time that you just want to set to the next day, you can't use the date picker as it'll reset your time. Time entry needs to be improved across the board. Thanks!

eyewellse Nov 3	Yes please! You have to type "AM" in CAPS, not "am", plus, there must be a space before the A. It's a nitpicky widget! Adding keywords to help this Timepicker request show up in search: datepicker, date picker, datetime, date time
JonV Nov 9	This is a repeat of prior ideas - glad to see it's under consideration now. Please support option for 24 hour time entry / display as well. Also need support for a time field that is not date related - for instance for scheduling activities at a time of day (train / plane / school / medication schedules)
