Calendar FirstDay problem

I have developed an access97 db with a calendar control(8) activeX control on a form.

On my windows98 machine the FirstDay shows as Sunday (as the setting is set). On my WinXp machine the FirstDay shows as Monday. WHY?

I have tried code ActiveXctrl.Firstday = 1 (1 should be Sunday) but still no help. The funny thing is that if I set the Firstday to 7 then it does show correct on the XP machine (sunday) but then it cocks up the 98 machine (saturday).

Has anybody any suggestions/code that could help.

Thanks

From the site link I posted above, I went to the
Viescas Consulting Calendar sample database and downloaded the sample calendar database. It appears that the author developed this to get around the "across versions" problem, and it appears that it could be a useful alternative to the Microsoft ActiveX calendar control.

Tom,

Cheers for all your thought into my problem. I am not in work until Monday so I will check the links out then. I will let you know how I get on.

Thanks again
