Wanting to use the calendar from Calendar Control 9.0 to select the date for
the date field in my form.  I am using MS Access 2000.

Rather than the control (which can be problematic), take a look at the
all-API approach Stephen Lebans has at

Do not use Calendar Control!  I have had nothing but heartaches usin
it.  I would recommend using something like this:

http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0057.htm

There are some other code based calendars out there that are good tha
I have tried, but this is the easiest to implement and use.  All yo
have to do is copy the module and the form to your database and add th
code to the object in your form where you want the date to go.  Eac
additional calendar control merely needs the code with the object.  
usually place trhe code in OnDoubleClick or OnGotFocus if you want i
to pop up when you tab to the object.
It is pretty easy to use and once you do use it, you'll never loo
back.
You'll probably have to do some fancy footwork if you move to Acces
2002 or 2003 if you use CC 9.0.  Datepicker doesn't care what versio
of Access you have.
