ActiveX controls in VFP
>>I have an oleCalendar control on a form which I wish to reposition at run-time. I have tried setting the Top and Left values accordingly and also tried the Move method using appropriate parameters, but the control remains firmly positioned where I place it at development time. Can someone tell me what I am over-looking? (Not that it should make any difference, but the calendar is not visible until the user double clicks on date fields on the form. The calendar then becomes visible,but will not move away from the position I set at Development time).

Before I posted my query I tried putting the oleCalendar in a container object and moving that; the container moved but for some reason the contained calendar control did not! Hence my post. On reading your post I thought that it had to be the case that it would move, so tried it again - and it worked. I can only assume that I did not do it correctly the first time. So, mystery solved. Thanks for the arm-twisiting :-)
