>I'm using the MS Calendar Control in my VFP 5.0a app - MSCAL.OCX. It says "MS Calendar Control 8.0" on the ActiveX controls toolbar when I add it to the form. On the properties sheet it says MS.Calendar.7.
>
>When I ship out my app to the user, using the SETUP wizard, I include MSCAL.OCX. On most of his machines, it works just fine (all Win NT 4.0, by the way). One ONE machine, when the calendar pops up, it is missing the month/year selector. I've had him manually copy a new version of MSCAL.OCX into the SYSTEM32 directory (and make sure there are no other MSCAL.OCX's floating around). Same problem.

>The other day, he installed NT on a new machine, and then installed my app - this machine also has the bad calendar control.

>Anyone know what might be going on? It LOOKS like I'm getting the wrong version of the calendar control. How does the system find these things? By the name? Or by some internal ID number? This is a real PITA, since I want to ship the app to a bunch of different sites, but the calendar control is a vital part of it, and I've got to figure out what is going and and fix it.

You are not alone. I too have had this problem. I even installed the latest BUGFIC from MS (servicepack) to no avail. I am sorry but this is only a sympathy email so you know you are not alone. I had to rewrite my program using a vfp class.
