calendar form date

Is there a way to have a pop up calendar on an Access form so that users can
click on the date that needs to be entered in the date field?

Thanks

Lots of options for you on calendars.

This is my personal favorite from Sensei Stephen Lebans:
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!
Instructions included on the site.

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.

If that doesn't work I would suggest this one:

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:

I recently stumbled across this one:

The Access Developer's Handbook has a form-based one included with the book/CD:

I've also heard some good things about this one:

This one might work just fine as well:
