Calendar Control 9.0

[PatrickH]

Can someone tell me how to make this ActiveX control indicate today's date? I just want to plug it into my Intranet homepage to display the calendar and current date. No picking dates, scheduling, etc.<br>
<br>
Tnaks!

Initialize the value property to 'date', which has todays date. Otnerwise it maintains the design date. <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

I'm also have a problem with Calendar ActiveX 6.0. I tried the 'Date' solution, but it didn't work. Any ideas what needs to be done?
Thanks

anyone haver a clue how to add text messages to the calendar. I need data specific to each date to be displayed inside the calendar. wdresdner@vablood.org

I found a very good example of the use of the Calendar control that works with IE 5 and above. It should fit the bill for anyone with an intranet that has control of the server.

The one issue that remains is that it gives a warning that the control is not script safe, but once responded to, does allow the functions to work.

Follow this link to see it, then view the source to see how it works. It makes use of the behavior resource which exists as a seperate file, you can download both for use in studying.

If you have trouble with following it or getting it, let me know via email at the following address: support@hgworks.com.

What I need help with is how to make the DTPicker control work within a Visual FoxPro v.6.0 environment. I can't seem to get the starting date value set for today's date. The control examples I've seen only illustrate how to use it as a data bound control. What I want is to use it to validate and accept user input for a date field to pass to a subsequent report query. Can somebody shed some light on this for me?

Sorry, I left the link out for the example. Here it is:

Aviars, I tried both ways you posted of setting the calendar to today's date. Neither has any effect.

Nor does setting these values in the Immediate pane in Break Mode.

The control's Value will only accept a literal date entered from Design Mode.

What am i doing wrong? I am using Access 2000 and Calendar Control 9.0

This used to work for me in Access 97.

ok, it simple. go into the coding of your calendar and write this line anywhere:

&quot;Name of your form&quot;.&quot;name of your calendar&quot;.today

thats all!

don't know if you've figures this yet...

If you use the OnLoad event and set the date ie

me.calendar.value = Date()

then it will set itself...

Doesn't work on Open Event

Maybe problem solved
