Calendar Control !

Hi !! I'm planning on providing my cutomers with a "Calendar Control"
in their forms to pick dates.

IIRC, I've read a lot of cons some years back about using the ActiveX
control & to rather use a form based tool.

However, here are my conditions:
a) All users will have Office 2003 installed on their PC's.
b) I may/may not be giving them a compiled version. i.e. I may give
some customers an MDB whereas some customers may get an MDE from me.

Will this have any impact ?

Could someone please refresh my memory by explaining the pros & cons
of an ActiveX calendar control & which way should I swing. Also any
pointers to useful past articles & nudges in the right direction would
be really welcome.

Thx & Best Rgds,
Prakash.

Take a look at Tonys page regarding Calendars:

Hi all, I am trying to use a calendar server control which I have ID="Calendar1" in the source code. What I am trying to do is emulate a JavaScript calendar that was being used in an older ASP version of the application. The javascript version worked nicely -- you click on a calendar.gif in an anchor next to a textbox. The calender would pop up in a new window, you select the date, the calendar window would close and the textbox would be...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
