Default Coding an AcitveX Calendar to appear on the tab it is called in a

I have a form that has multiple tabs, and all contain date fields. Instead
of having a calendar for every tab, I would like to use only ONE calendar to
populate all the date fields, no matter what tab the field is on. But I
don't know how to code the calendar to appear on the tab that it is called,
instead of just having it appear on the first tab when it is called. Can
this be done, and how?

Do the tabbed pages take up the entire form or is there room to one side of
the tabbed pages to place the calendar?

Or

You can move the tabbed control to one side, place the calendar on the form
itself, then move the the tabbed control back over top of the calendar. Then,
with the tabbed control selected, goto

Format - Send to Back

Now the calendar will show on all of the tabbed page

Do you have a routine for assigning the Calendar's value to the last textbox
to have focus?

Thanks for your answer.

Yes, the tabbed pages (there are 6) take up the entire form. In fact, they
ARE the form. No room on the side for anything:-(

Then use the second method I gave you. Instead of moving the tabbed control
aside, select and cut it, place your calendar on the form, paste the tabbed
control back, then with the tabbed control selcted, goto Format and click on
"Send to Back"
