how can I add a Calendar to a form so it doesn't view unless pushed by a button or some other way?
 
Add a button to the form and put

me.calendarname.visible = true

in the on click event

Bobby,
I have an example AC2000 DB at http://www.byerley.net/AccessCalDemo.zip . The calendar is on its own
form and therefore the single calendar can be used on many forms in your app.. There is example code
showing how to implement it on each type of form including datasheet view and subforms.
 
See:
http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm
A97MonthCalendar.zip is an A97 database containing a Class that wraps
the Microsoft Month Calendar Common Control in an easy to use interface.
A2K Version here: MonthCalendar Access 2000.zip
This is a completely API generated Month Calendar derived directly from
the Common Control DLL. What this means is that there are no
distribution or versioning issues as there are if you use the ActiveX
Month Calendar control. In other words this is not an ActiveX control!

Mike... your method 1 is exactly what I am looking for.. i have copied your code in, however I am still not able to get the calendar to come up either by double clicking or by pushing the button. I have put the code in the proper places under the Double Click (Field) and OnClick (button) I have tried to structure my names exactly like yours as well, but when I click on the button nothing happens.... any ideas?

Did you import the Calendar form "frmCalendar" from the example database into your own database?
 
I used Mike B's code and was able to get it to work on the double click of the field and a click of a button. now I have two date fields on the same screen... i created calendar and calendar1 for the two calendars (because I wanted to tie it into the source data)... I have the two buttons as well. here is my documentation. My issue is it pulls up the calendar for all four situations .. what code change do I need to get the first date/button (which is fine) to pull one calendar.. and the second date/button to pull the second calendar. I am using ActiveX controls....

thanks, Bobb
