ActiveX Controls - 4/3/2001 13:54:00   
Hey MikeO, Spooky or Vince (or anyone else for that matter)

Anyone know anything about ActiveX controls and how to use them successfully in FP. I have a Date/Time Picker that I want to use and have it write the date selected into a SQL database. Is this possible and can you point me to some tutorials or something like that

Thanks in Advance

If you can get a value posted to an ASP page then there is all the Spooky advice available as to how to get that into a db. Your problem is how to get the date value out of the ActiveX and posted to an ASP page I guess, and this pretty much comes down to how the ActiveX works. Normally they come with some kind of documentation. Have you gone through it?

RE: ActiveX Controls - 4/4/2001 20:08:00   
The control I am trying to use is "Calendar Control 9.0". As far as documentation I honestly have no idea where to look. I'll dig through and see if I can find anything about using it. It seems the more involved I get in this project, the more complicated it gets. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Check out URL
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q205/6/86.asp

This will allow the date you select on the ActiveX Calendar to be displayed on the page
I am also interested in how you could then pass the date value to an Access Database.

Any suggestions appreciated

I was sent this code snippet.
It may help!
*************
Drop a calendar on a new page, switch to the HTML View, and add this code
after the calendar's code:

<form id="MyForm" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MyDate" value="">
</form>

<script language="vbscript">
Sub Calendar1_Click()
If MsgBox("Do you want " & Calendar1.Value & "?",vbQuestion+vbYesNo) =
vbYes Then
MyForm.Submit()
End If
End Sub
</script>

Then switch back to Normal View and set the properties for your form to go
to a database.
