Calender Control -- Nothing

[Shiny(*)(*)]

Hi There,

I use the vb calender control in a application. There is about in total 50 of them in the program. The problem is that about 5 of them, when you make it visisble it displays the control with no day values, the month and year is fine but only the days is effected. All the other controls is fine its just a specific nm of them that ****s around.

Please help!!!!

does it act like this at all times or at specific times...
BTW: if you post your code where you are making it visible, might help us to analyse better...

All the time from installation. Its a simple button click event making the control vissible. Vissibility is set to False and when you click a button it becomes vissible. Simple. All of the controls through the program works on the same principal.

if you delete the misbehaving control and insert a new instance there at runtime...will it work properly...

the calender control (assuming you're talking about Microsoft Calendar Control X) is intended to be used with VBA in the MSOffice suite and is known to be very buggy when used from VB6.

It is also non-redistributable (i believe), so I suggest you find an alternative control

Im using mscal.ocx. What other similar type controls are for me to use. That is stable.

yes, that is the one which comes with ms-office. You can use MonthView/Date Picker control which is in the Microsoft Windows Common Controls 2 6.0 (SP4) which is more convenient...
