drop-down control for date entry?

[dbnDavid]

Is there any way to insert a control on an Access form that allows a date to
be entered with the kind of drop-down list you get on web pages? The Calendar
control is too big and elaborate.

You're welcome. Glad I could help.

Here are some other calendars that you might want to check out too:

Thanks a lot. This is exactly what I needed.

You could certainly roll your own code to produce dropdown combo boxes with
such functionality. However, I wonder if you wouldn't be happy simply using a
popup calendar form. The calendar is on a separate form, so it's not big and
obtrusive in the way when it's not being used.
