    Calendar Control

    I am looking for a calendar (date) control like the one that appears in the date column of the attributes pages in RE.

    It is not one of the default controls. I tried RE7_SC72.SuperCalendar, but that is not what I want.

    Re: Calendar Control

    Thank you very much. That was exactly what I wanted. Plus I got code that I'm sure would have taken forever to work out on my own.

     I was having problems at first -- the calendar would not show. I fiddled with some of the attributes on the control, got the calendar to give the date as dd/mm/yyyy, then I finally got it worked out. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the issue, and the attributes appear to be back in their initial state. Grrrrrrrrr.

     Anyway. Thanks much.

    Re: Calendar Control

     What do you know about the "ShowCalendar" property of the RE7_SC72.SuperEdit70Ex control?

     The reason that I am asking is because I have added a second one of those controls to my form, and I cannot keep them from producing the date in the dd/mm/yyyy format.

    I was having this problem with a single control, but it would go away when I set the "ShowCalendar" to False. Now, whenever I run the macro that property gets set to True, even if I set it to False in design mode. And the dates are always in the dd/mm/yyyy format.
