Hi Joel,

You have lots of options on calendars besides the Date Picker.
See if any of these can work a little better for you.

This is my personal favorite from Sensei Stephen Lebans:
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!
Instructions included on the site.

http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm

You can use the Calendar ActiveX Control that ships with your
Access program. You'll find it under your ActiveX Controls list.
To help you see how this works I suggest you go to MVP Arvin
Meyer's site and download a couple of his sample databases that
demonstrate how to use the calendar.

If that doesn't work I would suggest this one:

You may also want to check Tony Toews' site which lists many
calendar options including using forms and even an API solution.
You can find that here:

MVP Allen Browne has some ready made calendar forms you
can download here:

A friend told me about this one:

Here is a cool one in French with a slick clock as well:

I recently stumbled across this one:

http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm

This link gives some step-by-step instructions:

I believe this one is fairly new:

Here's another one of interest:

If that one gives you trouble you may want to try this one:

The Access Developer's Handbook has a form-based
one included with the book/CD:

http://www.developershandbook.com

I've also heard some good things about this one:

http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm

This one might work just fine as well:

This one was just recently passed on to me:

http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm

Found this one not too long ago:

http://www.referee-assistant.com/calcontrol.htm

This one was dropped on my desk the other day:

And last, but not least I would try this one:

Hi Joel,

Well I did give more than one link so I'm not sure which
site you are referring to exactly. If you mean this site:

http://www.lebans.com/monthcalendar.htm

Then use the 2000 version as it works with Access 2000,
2002, and 2003.

Post back if you have trouble following the directions.
