Calendars in form fields
In Word, is it possible to create a drop down menu showing a calendar from
which a date can be picked? eg on MS Project if you click on a date field a drop down menu appears and from it a date in future months or past months can be selected. |

Word 2007 has a "Date Picker" content control that can easily be inserted
into a document. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "dabhaid" wrote in message ...

In that case, you could create a userform on which you could have a Date
Picker Control. See the article "How to create a Userform" at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm -- Hope this helps.

I've managed to get the pop up calendar to work in Excel & Word but everytime
I open them it adds a new Insert Date to the context menu. Have followed VBA code but still cant get it to work. If I use the delete command in the Immediate window that works but the same command dosen't seem to work in the Workbook_BeforeClose section. I'm getting frustrated!!!
