Calendar Control

J

Jerry Anderson

I added the Microsoft Calendar Control as an ActiveX to my form. Access won't
allow me to see the tables available for the source of data. When I'm in the
form view and looking for controls in the properties window, I can see the
form, detail, and various labels, but the calendar control isn't visible.
What am I doing wrong?

There could, likely will, be lots of version problems when you go to
distribute the MSCal.OCX..

One alternative is MonthCalendar is a completely API generated Month
Calendar derived directly from the Common Control DLL. There are
links to several downloadable calendar forms at my website. As these
are forms you can also do anything with them you want.

You can also use the calendar form which comes in the Access <insert
your version here> Developers Handbook by Litwin/Getz/Gilbert,
publisher Sybex www.developershandbook.com. These books are well
worth spending money. Every time I open one I save the price of the
book.

Duane Hookum has an awesome and simple calendar in a report. See the
Calendar Reports sample section at
