Hi, Is there any possibility to load a web calendar within an access form with the possibility the data being entered into table?

Thanks in advance

To view a web calendar in Access, you can try to use a Web Browser control. To enter the web data into a table, it's better if the web calendar has a REST API for doing that.

I did this a long time ago using VB.NET front end and an Access backend, but I think you should be able for find the VB code to do this and convert to VBA. I wish I could find the cod somewhere where I did this. I only did it as a learning chance, but should be doable. Maybe someone has an example. I think I used some of this code.

Absolutely, and I suspect your best bet would be using vanilla javascript, no frameworks, something that is compatible with IE, because you may have (or not) the most up-to-date version of the browser control, which runs Edge, but I think most people will have the IE compatible version installed, so if you plan using that in other Access versions, it's best using a simple thing so you won't struggle later.
