I have a form that uses a calendar control and works fine in the original mdb
file. When it is compiled and loaded on another pc, you can't read the
calendar. The printing is too small. I have changed the systems display
settings and checked that the computer has the fonts being used in the
calendar. I am now at a loss as to what is causing it. Your help is greatly
appreciated.

There could, likely will, be lots of version problems when you go to
distribute the MSCal.OCX..

One alternative is MonthCalendar is a completely API generated Month
Calendar derived directly from the Common Control DLL. There are
links to several downloadable calendar forms at my website. As these
are forms you can also do anything with them you want.

You can also use the calendar form which comes in the Access <insert
your version here> Developers Handbook by Litwin/Getz/Gilbert,
publisher Sybex www.developershandbook.com. These books are well
worth spending money. Every time I open one I save the price of the
book.

Duane Hookum has an awesome and simple calendar in a report. See the
