If someone would explain where to download this file and then install it I
would be very greatful. I have actually found the file and downloaded it
howerver I can't figure out how to install it and apply it to Access to fix
the problem.
Thanks

If you've already got the file, use regsvr32.exe to register it. I've got
instructions at the end of

What "problem" are you trying to fix?

If you need to deploy mscomct2.ocx, then you'd normally copy it into the Windows\System or Windows\System32 folder and
register it using regsvr32.

What's the problem? We like to avoid using controls given version
problems and such.

If Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control is what you need then I'd
suggest visiting the Calendar Tips page at my website

Duane Hookum has an awesome and simple calendar in a report. See the
