I have a form with 4 date fields and 4 calendars.... ie. Datefield1 tied to
Calendar1, Datefield2 tied to Calendar2, etc. What I would like to do is
use only one calendar for all 4 date fields. Is this possible and what is
the code to do this? Please keep it simple. Thanks in Advance. Donna :-)
 
I prefer calendars/datepickers constructed completely with Access' objects
rather than using (and having to distribute with the application) the
ActiveX.

One I like can be downloaded for free from http://www.wolfwares.com; there's
one, also, in every edition of the _Access Developer's Handbook_, by Litwin,
Getz, et al, published by Sybex.

And Googling the archives of comp.databases.ms-access at
http://groups.google.com will turn up references to several others. They
have the additional advantage that you can jump and and modify the
form/control/code to do what you want.

Click to expand...

On my site, you can download an Acess2K database that demonstrates the reuse of a form containing a
single calendar control that is callable via the methods demonstrated (onClick, onDblClick, Command
Button). There is ample sample code with commenting to help you infuse it into your own application.
The Calendar is callable in Datasheet View as well.

try the Access 97 developer's handbook by Getz and Litwin and Gilbert,
Sybex books.
It is probably in later versions of this book also
Gives you a little form that you can open with a button and tie results
to a field on your form.
