Adding calendar to form

[Rick Cass]

I would like to have a calendar option next to a text box
to collect a date.

Can someone help me with adding a calendar feature and
how to get the selected date entered into the text box?

Please help.

Hi Rick,

(Copied from response in other group)

Lots of options for you.

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 Arvin
Meyer's site and download a couple of his sample databases
that demonstrate how to use the calendar.

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:

This is my personal favorite from Sensei Stephen Lebans:
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!

If you need step-by-step instructions on how to use it in
your database post back and I'll help.
