MS-Access MVP.. Help re: Calendar Controls and Dates

[Joe Blow]

Hey all you wonderful people out there helping us newbies out.
You're hard work is TRULY appreciated.

I've seen it before, but I cannot recreate it...
A little text box for a date, mm/dd/yyyy and then a little icon next to it,
to pop up a calendar and be able to select the date you want, then it gets
populated into the text box and closes the calendar control... I can't seem
to find it. I found the calendar control, but I don't know if I am using it
correctly.

Thanks so much...


Joe

or for easier programing choose option 2 <g>

Seriously, a single line in the textbox's click event is all it takes:

=popCalendar()

can't be easier than that, can it?

Hi Arvin,
I found this post and was trying to have similar funcionality on a form. But
it didnt seem to work for me. I looked up one of your calender zip files and
tried to copy in the popCalenar function but to no luck.
Can you please elaborate a litlle as to how to use that function...or do I
need some addins for my access. I am running a 2003 version.
Thanks & Regards,
Abhijeet
