Thanks, but exactly where do I enter the command? I tried entering it into
the Active X Calendar properties as a Value, and tried looking at the code
for the form.

Got it, thanks for the help!

If you only want to display date and are not concerned about the user
changing the date, you can set the ControlSource of the ActiveX object to
be that of a field in the table, or, another text box in the form. The
other text box in the form can even be hidden (Visible set to no).
However, your users will not be able to chose a date by simply clicking on
it. They have to change the control source, like the text box, to change
the calendar. Doing it this way, you have can set =Date() to the value of
the control source.

I hope this works for you.
