    ActiveX Control Calendar not showing


    Hi,

    So I'm having an issue with my calendar showing up. It's set up as an ActiveX Control with the following properties:
    Click image for larger version. 

Name:	Properties.PNG 
Views:	10 
Size:	21.9 KB 
ID:	17409
    When I open the form with the calendar in it, I get the following error message: "There is no object in this control"

    When I hit debug, it brings me to the VBA code set up in the Form_Load(). The current code is:
    Code:
    Me.ActiveXCtlInputDate.Value = Date
    After I close the debugger, the form does open up but the calendar is missing.

    Thanks for your help.

    If you have it on another PC, in VBE menu, tools, references,
    get the path of the activeX control (in LOCATION path)
    Then look for that same control on the PC missing the contrl.
    Add it. (if missing, copy it from the other PC)

    MSCAL.OCX has been deprecated. I searched the web and found a couple posters mentioning they are able to get it to work on newer versions of Office. I would simply depend on the newer Date Picker. Why risk data integrity on a control that might run amok after a Windows update was applied.

    Thank you,

    I just removed the old field and started using Date Picker.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
