My guess is that you moved the datecalendar control on the form after you placed it.  The control is made up of three separate components, a container, an entryfield and a pushbuton. Open the .wfm file in the sourcecode editor and check the constructor code for the datecalendar object.  If there is more than one entry for datecalendar the easiest way to deal with this is to delete all of the entries.  Close the sourcecode editor and then open the form in the designer and place a new datecalendar control where you want it. If the designer has not used the same name as before (probably DATECALENDAR1 unless you have multiple datecalendar controls on the form) then you will need to change its name back to the original otherwise existing references to the control in your code won't work. Because the datecalendar control is made up of three components, moving it once it has been placed is tricky.  One needs to first select the control in the Inspector's combobox.  This will show the object's handles on the form.  The only object selected is, however, the container. If you move it now it leaves the entryfield and the pushbutton behind.  One also needs to left click on the entryfield and the pushbutton with the control key held down.  This ensures that all three components are selected.  Without releasing the control key drag the control to its new position.
