i'm developing a database to sell and i've got a date and time picker
control - Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control, version 6.0
(mscomct2.ocx) on my system. i don't know where i got this but suspect it
may have come from a windows platform sdk. when i install office xp on a
fresh install of windows xp, this control does not appear in the list of
active x controls in access. i want to know where to get this control so
that i can package it and use it with my product. i'm not sure if i got it
from an sdk, but here's what i get when i go to the sdk website and click
"my sdks" in the sdk catalog page:

Gary,

It is in file mscomct2.ocx, usually sitting in the Windows System32 folder.
You can copy it on another machine and register it, and it'll work. Now,
whether there is a license issue involved or not, it's something I can't
really answer.

HTH,

The lower, right button on the Toolbox should take you to a list of other
controls. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't installed any special
packages on this computer, but it is there under Microsoft Date and Time
Picker... Choosing this and placing it on a form automatically causes a
reference to be set Microsoft Windows Common Controls-2 6.0 (SP4) in the
code window (Alt+F11) Tools|References.
 
thanks for the info!
