Access 2007 textbox date setting
Hi I have an application developed using Access 2003 that I want to convert
to Access 2007. In this application typically where a user can enter a date in a text box I have an adjacent button to display a popup form containing a calendar control so the user can select a date. The problem is that when converting to Access 2007 these date text boxes now have a default setting to display a date picker. When the user tabs to a date text box a date picker is displayed that partially covers a calendar button (not a great look). I would like to turn off the form textbox default to display a date picker for all date fields. This will then allow me to remove these calendar buttons overtime. Is there a method to set the textbox default to Never show a date picker for date fields (and then reset in the future)? Any ideas or suggestions appreciated :-) Many thanks, Jonathan |

Access 2007 textbox date setting
There is not a single setting for this, but you can set the property for
each one. (It would be possible to do that programmatically, but would take you some effort to write.) -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
