  • you mean embed an Outlook calendar control in your form? No, that's not possible. Could you not simply use Outlook itself, running side by side your application?

    If not, check out the offerings of dbi-tech.com, they have some great ActiveX controls.

  • Tom,

    I considered using outlook, however, have been unable to figure out how to have other users update "shared" calendars.  And I have not found good documentation on sending data from Access to Outlook.  If you know of good documents or samples I can review that would be great.

    Does the dbi-tech controls work in access?

    Thanks
