Accessing Exp. Ship Date field in OE Order Entry OCX in VB6.0 1

[vbdbcoder]

Have you tried to capture the button click event of the Exp. Ship Date on OE Order Entry OCX in VB 6.0 ?

Background is I have a VB 6.0 app with OE OCX that has additional functions. Now the client wants to set the Exp. Ship Date to a certain date when simply clicking the date control on OCX. I don't seem to recall that accessing a component in the OCX is feasible.

Thanks in advance.

Use GetControl(). Snippet from some production code:

Public WithEvents fldCust As VBControlExtender
....
Set fldCust = AccpacOE1100UICtrl1.UIAppControls("afeOEORDHcustomer").GetControl()

Now you can program events.
