I am trying to create a calendar to pass the value that I choose from the
Calendar, to the field duedate on my form. I know this is possible, but I
cannot figure it out.

Also, when I create my calendar on my form, I don't want to "full size"
calendar, I would like to have a small button that would then open the
calendar for the user.

Thanks in advance..

Hi Brook,

Lots of options for you on calendars.

This is my personal favorite from Sensei Stephen Lebans:
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!
Instructions included on the site.

You can use the Calendar ActiveX Control that ships with your
Access program. You'll find it under your ActiveX Controls list.
To help you see how this works I suggest you go to MVP Arvin
Meyer's site and download a couple of his sample databases that
demonstrate how to use the calendar.

If that doesn't work I would suggest this one:

You may also want to check Tony Toews' site which lists many
calendar options including using forms and even an API solution.
You can find that here:

I recently stumbled across this one:

This link gives some step-by-step instructions:

I believe this one is fairly new:

The Access Developer's Handbook has a form-based
one included with the book/CD:

I've also heard some good things about this one:

This one might work just fine as well:

This one was just recently passed on to me:

Found this one not too long ago:

This one was dropped on my desk the other day:

Jeff,

Thank you very much for all the options, I will take a look and find the
best one for my applications.

LOL! You copied and pasted that, didn't you Jeff? Or am I just suffering

I have that post (and many others) saved in my database of newsgroup
answers. Really comes in handy.

In any case, it was worth seeing again :-)
