Setting MSCAL.Calendar.7 date value

[Chad1984]

I'm using an MSCAL.Calendar.7 class object on a form that allows the user to select a report name, options, and the start and ending dates the period should cover. The user then clicks a button and the proper report fills out. The problem I'm having is that I can have the objects pop up with a given date (by editing the property), but that's static- I want them to at least show up set to the current date or something.

I realize this is an insanely stupid question, but for some reason it's not working for me- how can I set the object to a date dynamically?

You can't set its Value property to Date() in the Load event procedure of the form ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Duh! I thought it would be something really easy. I was trying to set it to a specific value- I rearranged the numbers, put them in single quotes, in parentheses, tried every combination, I could think of for an hour, with no result.
StartDate = Date
(where StartDate is the name of the control and Date is a function that returns the current date) worked like a charm... and then it occured to me to try single quotes for specific values, as in:
StartDate = "8/12/07"
Thanks!
