I have found a really nice FREE datepicker / calendar control

http://www.excentricsworld.com/customcontrols.aspx?id=7


This is proving very useful, but I want to subclass it.

I chose ..... Project - Add web user control

and called it CtlCalendar

This gave me a blank form so I dropped my control on it and changed a few properties.

I re-built my solution and then dragged CtlCalendar.ascx from the Soution Explorer onto my test form

The new control will not let me posistion it on the form unless I wrap it in a panel. This makes adressing the control a PIA.

I repeated the whole experiment and that the "blank" form generated by

Project - Add web user control

actually tells me to wrap my control in to a grid layout panel. Aha says I. But sadly using this panel in the control seems to change nothing.

Where am I going wrong in all this...This was such a simple process in Visual Foxpro:(

Please help
