I am writing an IIS application which enables users to view and change data in an SQL database.

There are some date fields which can be updated and because the <FORM><INPUT TYPE=... does not allow date I choose to use a button which opens a new window containing a calendar. For this calendar I use Mscal.ocx which is (I think) part of MS office and not of IE 5.

Now I have 2 questions:

1. Is there a calendar control which is part of IE 5 because all users have IE 5 installed but not all users have MS office?

2. Is there a digitally signed downloadable version of Mscal.cab so I can put the URL to it in the codebase value of the <OBJECT tag. If it is not digitally signed IE wont download it because of security settings office policy wont let me change that?


If anybody can answer one of the two questions I will be very happy.
