KFCAL 1.0 (All Rights Reserved) by Ken Fose 3/25/94 KFCAL is a MS Visual Basic 3.0 for Windows application that can be called by any other Windows application for quick and easy date selections. A user can click a date on a MS Access form and then edit that date with a single mouse click on the KFCAL form when picking another day in the same month. Picking a date in the same year can be done in 2 clicks. Even selecting birthdays 40 years ago can be done very quickly. The KFCAL form looks like a page on a calender, so when the user has to enter or change a date, they see the whole month. Developers using KFCAL don't have to write alot of code to prompt for and validate dates for reports, queries, data entry etc. Adding a new date control can be as easy as adding the control, and adding 1 line of code to the click event (for VB users) or to the On Push property (for MSA users). KFCAL was designed to be as small and quick as possible. The control menu (the little box in the upper left hand corner) is eliminated to prevent users from inadvertently closing the form. KFCAL should be loaded and unloaded from code. KFCAL can be loaded once, and be called from multiple forms/applications via DDE. There is code provided that can be used/modified to get started quickly. For a quick demo, just run VBDEMO.EXE. There are sample Visual Basic calls to KFCAL in VBDEMO.FRM. There are sample MS Access calls to KFCAL in KFCAL.MDB. ====================================================================== Packing List/Setup KFCAL10A.ZIP 1.
