ActiveX Control Compatibility
I've created a sheet in Excel 2003 with the DTPicker control, but when a user
with either Excel 2000 or 2002 opens it, the controls appear as red Xs. Is this a compatibility issue or are some components missing on thier installations? Thanks in advance. |

I believe that the DTPicker is installed as part of Access, so if the target
machine doesn't have Access, it will likely not have the the DTPicker control. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting LLC www.cpearson.com (email on the web site) "Racer49" wrote in message ...

That makes sense, but is there a method/control to have an excel user have a
date-type picker in excel without access?
