Sorry, I don't have he Access Developer's Handbook. I have been following Calendar how-to from web site. http://www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut09.htm The part about dragging the control to the tool box wasn't covered very well. But other clues came to the rescue. So with a some VBA, I am able to make something useful for a customer. If a little award. BTW, I wrote one using buttons, drawn by VBA, but it takes a lot of screen real-estate and is clunky. Thus the (MsCal.ocx) became the lesser of evils. I would like to see Drew's minicalendar to compare it the button code that I put together. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 8:29 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] How to use Microsoft's calendar control in access I use the calendar from the Access Developer's Handbook. If you have that or know someone who does, it's a really nice calendar and easy to implement.

It obviously has to be registered blah blah blah A long time ago (Sorry can't remember from whom) there was a post that included a way cool non-ocx calendar drawn with boxes etc. I can send a copy off list - Easy to work with and to get values into and out of Then there is the timeless brilliance (grin) of Drew's minicalendar. Very simple to work with Again there is Lebans calendar too - All excellent products Name your poison :-) Darren -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Edward S Zuris Sent: Tuesday, 11 November 2008 7:08 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] How to use Microsoft's calendar control in access I think I have learned how load the calendar control Ms-Access > tools > custom > Commands tab > calendar control 9.0 Then dragged the control over to the tool box and it seems to work.
