SUMMARY
The Outlook Contact, Appointment, Task, and Journal Entry forms contain a drop-down calendar that allows you to select a date by clicking a day on the calendar. This feature is internal to Outlook and you cannot access it from a custom page of an Outlook form or another program because it is not a separate control.
MORE INFORMATION
To see the Outlook calendar control, open a new appointment, and then click the arrow to the right of the Start Date or End Date fields. Outlook displays a small monthly calendar where you can click to select a date.
To use this functionality in a custom form, you must use a custom control that provides similar functionality. These controls typically require that you use Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) in the form. For additional information about where to obtain these controls, please see the following Web site:
