Using a calendar box in a report

[capzilla37]

I would like to somehow use a calendar box in a report. The dates would not
need to be used anywhere else in my database, I just need them so they show
up when I print the report out. Also there are two places where I need to do
this on the same form. One being "Date Filed" the other being "Put Out Date"
I had tried to use the insructions on this page:

in the events tab is hidden. Please excuse my ignorance I am new at this.
Thanks in advance, Andrew

in general terms; a Report is an output doc only....no controls for events
that the user could manipulate...

So your calendar is really going to be just a picture/image in a report.

Would you then recommend that I switch to a form? But if I do switch to a
form, can I still print and export my work like have been doing in the report?

Thanks for your help anyway, I have solved my problem. I will just put a text
box with "Due Date" in it and have it associated with nothing. Therefore, I
could just fill in the due date when prompted each time. Thanks again for
your help. Andrew
