Date control

tecas

is there a way to display a calendar of dates that the user can click
on (like in .net) and return the value to a text box? If not, is there
some code to validate the text entered?

Have you tried the calendar control? There are several 3rd party
calendar controls out there, too.

I wouldn't recommend a calendar control because of the distribution
and version problems. Especially when Access calendar forms are
available you can drop into your app.

See Scott's link to my website.

Tony,

How would I use an access calendar form? Are they readily available
within access or would i have to create one?
