Greetings,

I was wondering if it is possible to add text (to a day entry) using the
Access Calendar control?

Thanks in advance!

I was simply wanting to add text to a daily entry in the calendar control.  
For instance, since today is the 8th of February, I was wondering if I could
programmatically add text to that day stating what tasks are due (for that
day)?  So far, I've seen no property that I can use to do this.  I can use
the code below to return the value of the day that the user selected (e.g,
"2/8/2005"), but I have not found a way of adding additional text to a daily
entry in the Calendar Control.  

'// "x" returns the value of the day the user selected (e.g., "2/8/2005")
x = Me.ActiveControl

An alternative might be to display a separate form that displays whenever
the user clicks a particular date on the Calendar Control.  This separate
form would list any items that are due that day.  (Perhaps I could use a
listbox to do this).  At any rate, if there is a better way to do this, just
let me know.  I was just hoping that I could list the actual tasks that are
due on the Calendar itself, but that may not be possible.

Thanks for any input.

Hi,
Access Calendar control do not support this. You can try to look at other
controls, for example: www.dbi-tech.com, www.lebans.com

I'm not a guru like these other guys, but I've used lebans date picker
control and I don't think it would help you. From what I know, I don't think
what you want to do can be done to way you want to. I think it would be best
to do it the second way you mentioned. You need a table where you put all
your task with their due date.
You need a form with a calendar control of some sort and a sub form that
will list all tasks in continuous view. When you click a date in the calendar
you can set the subform to filter out only the tasks due on the date selected.
And likewise, when you create a new record in that subform, it would apply
the selected date to the task you are creating.
