ACC97: Class Property of 97 Calendar Control Is Mscal.Calendar.7

• Microsoft Access 97

SYMPTOMS

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

Microsoft Access 97 includes the Microsoft Calendar Control. When you view the properties of a Calendar control that you added to a form, you see that the Class property of the control is Mscal.Calendar.7.

CAUSE

The Class property identifies the OLE Object type; this information comes from a Type Library. The Microsoft Calendar Control uses a version 7.0 Type Library; therefore, the Class property is set to Mscal.Calendar.7. This has no effect on the control's functionality in Microsoft Access 97.
