Calendar active x to show todays date

[dominicgingras]

Maybe it’s a simple question...

I have a pop-up form used for entering a date for my user. When I open that pop-up, I want the active x to display today’s date.

I tried this code:

Me.DateDépart.Value = Now()

No success

Any help will be appreciated.

Try:

Me.ControlName.Value = Date()

Note - if you are using the Microsoft DateTimePicker control (mscomct2.ocx) then you need to place the above code in the forms OnLoad event.

Yes I did place the code on the on form load but when I put date() the () seem to disapear. I think I read something about date() and access 2002...

The brackets do disappear because it is a function without any parameters - that's ok! did it work???

Yes
