>I have been using the ActiveX calendar (the one that comes with VFP 5) in one of my applications for awhile now, and I have had no problems with it...until now. The problems are suddenly occuring in components that have not been changed for months. Whenever I try to pass a date to the control, I get the following error message:

>As near as I can determine, this problem started happening after I returned from DEVCON and installed VFP 6, but I cannot say that with absolute certainty. Have any of you had similar problems with the calendar or any other ActiveX components? If so, can you recommend a solution, or point out what I am doing wrong?
