Bill, I'm having a little trouble using the control. I have it working successfully in a modal form (it's great - thank you), but not in the main window.

I have the controlsource set to an object property, which is a date value - but upon form instantiation, the value is likely to be blank or null. Is it possible that this is breaking the class?

The symptom is that the displayed value of the control is ".NULL." I have used the VFP debugger to verify the controlsource property, and the value of the object property used as the controlsource.

Help!

>For those of you using my VFP Date and Datetime Pickers classes, I have uploaded a new set of the classes called VFPX Date and Datetime Picker classes stored in DatePickX.zip. This is a 100% VFP solution to the date and datetime picker issue. Functionality is the same as the original classes but the MS MonthView ActiveX control used on the original date and datetime pickers has been replaced with a VFP Calendar class. The Calendar class was designed to be visually similar to the MonthView control and has similar basic functionality. This class is housed in its own class library wich can also be instantiated as a standalone Calendar. A subclass of the Calendar class is also included which has some automatic resizing capability to be used in standalone Calendar scenarios. Documentation for the Calendar class is included for ease of use and extensibility.

>The purposes of creating this new class are to relieve some of the issues some have experienced regarding deploying and instantiating the ActiveX control and also since the Calendar class is fully VFP it can be modified, subclassed or given as much extended functionality as required by the developer. The Calendar control was developed specifically to replace the MS MonthView control on the date and datetime picker class so it does not have the same range of functionality as the MonthView control. On the other hand, since it is VFP, developers will be able to give it all the functionality they need for their particular situations.
