This is an NT 4.0 WS running MS Office 2000 Professional.I have a user who is trying to set up a new form, in the form he is trying to add a control option, (Date and time picker control) from the "More Controls" menu item in the toolbox. However this control is not present. I do have this control though. I've gone and added all of the Access features by running the MS Office 2000 pro disk, and it still doesn't show up. I also uninstalled and reinstalled, still to no avail. Is there something I'm missing? Please help. Thank you in advance.
 
Date and Time Picker can be a swine to get working especially if you copy the database to another machine.

That aside, first of all make sure you have MSCOMCT2.OCX in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 folder

Then open the Access Database and Select TOOLS >ACTIVEX CONTROLS

Select Register and Browse to WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSCOMCT2.OCX and click OK

Now it should work
