Hi
I want to use a date picker (6.0) sp2 on 2003
I don't know if this came with 2003 so that is the first question
as it may have belonged to xp or 2000 that were here first. I don't
want to use it if it won't port to other machines.
Secondly: I want to set the default value but I click
on the help in access properties and get a white form.
In the control properties the help says it can't find
cmctl298.chm which is not on the machine. Any
ideas where to get this.
Third question is should I be using this control at all
given how the above.
thanks for any thoguht

Funny, mine says "MSDN not found" I assume this means the subscription
service for developers. Anyway, the default is set by changing the value
property. When you rt-click on the control select dtpicker -object
properties, and set the date value there. By the way, mine is (SP4) so you
may need to download some updates.
I have used this in my database programs and it works on all the machines I
have tried it on, except I may have to set references on some to recognize
it, or install mscomctl2.
