Calendar versions different

[Guest]

I made a form with the calendar version 8 from the system32 folder. On my
laptop, it has the calendar control 9, from the microsoft office folder.
When I try and run the form on the laptop, the calendar kinda works, but the
numbers don't show up. Do I have to register the calender .ocx, version 8
onto my laptop? And if I do, will the laptop even know to overide that .ocx
over the .ocx it is using from the office folder? It's just a mess. I
figured it was like Excel, in that a newer version could open an older
version. Of course we're talking about completely different things, but I
figured Microsoft could figure it out. Thanks.

Yes, the calendar control certainly has versioning problems.

Here's a simple little Access form you can use as a popup calendar in any
version of Access without needing any external reference:

There is also a link to Stephen Leban's wrapper for the MS Month Calendar
Common Control if you want something more.

Hi,
I would suggest to install latest version of calendar control on all PCs you
have. Or use some other, as Allen suggested
