Calendar in Excel Form (using mscal.ocx)

  Asked By: Jeff    Date: Jan 25    Category: MS Office    Views: 2701
  

I am using a calendar in a vba form in Excel (the mscal.ocx activex
control). My goal is to set the calendar up so that only a change in
the the month and year drop down boxes are required in order for the
date to be transferred to its text box on the form. I have made it
work; however, if I try to change the date again from the calendar,
the text box goes blank and will not re-populate with the calendar
date unless I either expand the calendar back out and click on one of
the date buttons, or if I close the form and then re-open it.

Does anyone here have experience with this type of thing?


Here's the code I'm using:
=============


Private Sub Calendar1_NewMonth()
Calendar1_Click
End Sub

Private Sub Calendar1_NewYear()
Calendar1_Click
End Sub

Private Sub Calendar1_Click()
Calendar1.Day = 1
frmCourseBooking.txtDateTaken.Value = frmCourseBooking.Calendar1.Value
End Sub

Follow these steps in creating a calendar  or download the calendar from this
website.

I had seen this page earlier,
but it did not answer my main question. That was: "how can I get the
calendar to update the date  more than once in a session?" I have
managed to make the calendar  update the date text  box whenever either
the month  or year  are changed, but if I try to do that a second time
without first closing the form  and then re-opening it, all I get is a
blank text box.
If I revert to using days as well, and clicking on the day  buttons,
then it works as it should; however, I only wish to select month and
year, and then have the date entered.
