copyright with ms access?
if you get it from public forums, and was freely shared, its public domain.

If you want I can email Allen and let him know. Although he no longer updates his website I expect he would fix a broken link.
Alternatively you could use my Better Date Picker which is very similar and more up to date. Can’t provide a link as I’m on my phone but it’s in sample databases and on my website

I have downloaded it and am trying it I might have to resize it and can it work with your code to open in fixed place Only just added it so haven't had time for a detailed look.

 

[arnelgp]

the code is yours and everyone else that buys the book.
they made the book for the public.

in respect, just mention where you get the source code and the original coder.

i believe in free code. you don't keep it to yourself and die with it.
you let the code live. exposed it. pass it to the next generation. share it so others may benefit.

Yes I agree. Peter Hibbs has created some excellent example apps and his help files are outstanding. Highly recommended.
Best of all probably are his Flexgrid examples. Unfortunately they don't work in 64-bit Access

I need to update it for 64 bit but think I can work it out if not I know where to come lol

 

[Dreamweaver]

Just updated all his APIcalls to 64 bit can somebody check them as I only have a 32 bit system.

'Store rectangle coordinates.
Public Type FormCoords
    lngX1 As Long
    lngY1 As Long
    lngX2 As Long
    lngY2 As Long
End Type

#If VBA7 Then 'use PtrSafe & LongPtr
Declare PtrSafe Sub GetWindowRect Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As LongPtr, lpRect As FormCoords)
Declare PtrSafe Function GetDC Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As LongPtr) As LongPtr

Declare PtrSafe Function apiSystemParametersInfo Lib "user32" Alias "SystemParametersInfoA" (ByVal uAction As Long, _
                    ByVal uParam As Long, lpvParam As RECT, ByVal fuWinIni As Long) As Long
#Else

#End If

'Store for usable area of screen (see frmCalendar code)
Public Type RECT
    vLeft As Long
    vTop As Long
    vRight As Long
    vBottom As Long
End Type

I did find most on WIKE API Except
apiSystemParametersInfo
I will post the topic on utteraccess where I found the calendar for others thanks

I can't check them at the moment as I'm on a tablet.
You could have saved a lot of time and effort by using another date picker with no API declarations so no conversion needed...
