Calendar control

[Luis]

I'm trying to use the ActiveX calendar control on a form.
What i'd like to do is to get a certain initial date and
final date from a table and "paint" this date interval
with other color than the rest of the calendar. The idea
is to create some sort of planner.
Is this possible with this control? And if so how?

The answer is no. The ActiveX calendar control doesn't expose any properties that allow changing the
color of a date range.

You can easily specify a DateRange with this nonActiveX version of the
Microsoft MonthCalendar control.

A97MonthCalendar.zip is an A97 database containing a Class that wraps
the Microsoft Month Calendar Common Control in an easy to use interface.
A2K Version here: MonthCalendar Access 2000.zip
This is a completely API generated Month Calendar derived directly from
the Common Control DLL. What this means is that there are no
distribution or versioning issues as there are if you use the ActiveX
Month Calendar control. In other words this is not an ActiveX control!
