Is there a Calendar control I can download or buy that will allow me to show
a month at a time?
I have an events table and I want to have a calendar display a full month
with days that have events scheduled in a different colour or somethinig.
My standard blurb is as follows. However it seems to me that if you
grabbed a calendar based on an Access form (there are links on the
below page.) you could resize the controls, add a text field to each
date field and insert the events in each control. So as to not exceed
Access limits on the number of controls on a form I'd insert each
event as text separated by vbCrLF.
See the Calendar Tips page at my website

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.
