Just be aware that if you create the form using the version that ships with Office XP and your users are running Office 2000, your control will break on the user machine. This is because Microsoft activeX controls are forward compatible only. You may want to have a look at Doug Hennig's Article "Tame Your ActiveX Controls" in the June 1998 issue of FoxTalk Magazine. He includes an ActiveX loader that gets around this problem. 'Course, if you are coming to Essential Fox next month, you can come to my ActiveX controls session and get an updated version of his activeX loader along with a pop-up calendar form that uses it. He was kind enough to let me have the code for my session < s >.

Hi Marcia,

I'm trying to use the neat calendar control that came with the source code of your book "1001 Thing You Wanted...", the one in chapter 04. But, when I open the ch04.pjx project and then try to modify the cntdate class in ch04.vcx, I get an error:

Error instantiating class. Cannot find yadatxtbase in ch04.vcx. Where is this class located? I've looked everywhere in the source code and can not seem to locate it?

Thanks!
