I'm trying to use Microsoft's DateTime Picker ActiveX Control in my asp page but I do not know how to set the Minimum/Maximum date. FOr example, I tried:

< PARAM NAME="MinDate" VALUE="10/01/1999" >

but it doesn't work as I am still able to choose earlier dates.

I notice that when I paste the control from the toolbox onto my ASP page and view it as text, I see the following settings for MinDate and MaxDate:

< PARAM NAME="MaxDate" VALUE="2958465" >
< PARAM NAME="MinDate" VALUE="-109205" >

What are those? Perhaps it's a date format? If so, and the only way I can set the MaxDate and MinDate is by using the format, then how can I convert from "10/01/1999" to that number format?

Or if you can refer me to any online resource that automatically picks dates like Date Picker, I would be very grateful.

Thanks.
