This is a good one, Allen, thanks! I didn't think to use code to force the
button to show for the date picker. I have an issue where, if I use a date
input mask, the date picker button won't show, so doing a got focus event
might be just the ticket. I'd get rid of the input mask, however, some users
do use that option, and would most likely complain if I removed it.

You could create an AutoKeys macro, and assign a keystroke to RunCommand
with ShowDatePicker.

Alternatively, if you want this for one date box on one form, you could
add a shortcut key to SetFocus to the date field, and then RunCommand
acCmdShowDatePicker
