    Question Calender

    Hi,

    I am using a dialog box where the user needs to enter a date. Is there anyway of using windows calender. I know VB6 has this but as far as I know VB5 Enterprise doesn't have this.

    Any ideas?

    If it is an OCX. Just use the components thingy in VB. If it is not on the list, you will need to register it with windows. I use, Twins Register Service, cause you don't have to mess about in DOS. Download it from:

    Brief guide to OCX files. All controls you use in VB are made up of or are contained in files with the extension .ocx or .dll The .ocx ones are mainly ActiveX controls. Basically before Windows knows about the control(s), and which file it is in, you have to register it with Windows. Same goes with some DLLs. Any more questions, just ask away.
