Problem using activate window calendar (VFP3)

[sumpun]

I am using

activate window calendar

to implement a date picker function.

What i have is a text box field and command button

In the click method I have the following code :

ACTIVATE WINDOW calendar
THISFORM.date.value = _DIARYDATE
THISFORM.Refresh

However, it always returns me the wrong date or a date value that I selected from previous clicks of the button.

Is there any way I can obtain the date I selected ????

I need to do this using VFP3 for the time being, then change to VFP7 later. Are there better solutions for VFP7 ??

I am not able to duplicate your problem. Although I only tried in VFP6.0 and VFP7.0.
There are Activex controls for date selecting, and it seems to me they were available for VFP3.0 also. There is a calendar control Activex and Month View control.
