Calendar9 and datepicker6

[FJM]

I am in the position of upgrading computers at work from Access 2008 to Access 2013 and then Access 2016


One problem I am encountering seems to be where I have used a Calendar control on forms.

I have a form where the operator currently chooses a date from a combo box which is linked to a calendar control.

The code is as follows:-
Private Sub Combo42_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Calendar9.Visible = True
Calendar9.SetFocus
If Not IsNull(Combo42) Then
Calendar9.Value = Combo42.Value
Else
Calendar9.Value = DATE
End If
End Sub

When I run the databade initially, I am getting the following warning message
"Your access database contains a missing or broken reference to the file MSCAL.OCX v7"

I have looked up this probelm and from what I can make out, the calendar control needs to be replaced by an updated version.
I see that DTPicker6 is available.
I have tried to simply replace Calendar9 with DTPicker6 in the code but it will not run.
Can anyone point me in a direction ......?

you don't need anything - ensure the control's format property is set to a date format (e.g. short date or dd/mmmm/yyyy) and 'show datepicker' is set to 'for dates'. A small calendar icon will appear when the control has focus which the user can select
