active x!!

[Milan]

Hi People!!

I need some help with Active X objects. Basically i want to use use various active controls in my Access Form. But i haae not done this before . Where can i get different Active X objects from ( any websites ?) . i ok using VB so i imagine you would treat it like any other control on a from , writing code to a particular event ., depending on the type of control being used. Can anybody tell me where to start and the best way to use Active x controls!!!


Many Thanks

Start with the calendar. It should come with Access.

Notes

If you right click on the calendar and select properties, you will note there are not many 'events' associated with it.

If you go to the vb window and under general, select the calendar, then on the right under declarations, there are many more options.

As for any other Active Xcontrols, they can be very tempramental.

Kinda on the same subject. When programming using these Active X controls, where can you get information regarding the properties and methods for those controls?
