Replacement for Microsoft Access Calendar Control

This database template is a replacement for the Microsoft Access Calendar Control which was removed in Access 2010 and replaced with a simple date picker. If you want more control over how your users select dates, or want to design forms that look like a real calendar, then this template is for you.

You can use my Calendar as either a popup form or as an embedded subform. Either way you have complete control over picking of the date. I teach how to design forms and reports that look like monthly calendars (as well as storing and displaying appointment data) in my full Access Calendar Seminar, but if all you want is a quick form you can plug in to your database, then this template will do the trick.

Sample Database

If you'd like to download a sample copy of the database template, you can do so here. This is a non-editable version of the template which will let you see it work in action. Sample databases are available for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Access.

Full Developer Database

Once you have purchased the full developer database template, come back to this page and click on the Download button below. This will give you access to the ZIP file containing the Template ACCDB file. The full version will run on 32-bit or 64-bit Access 2013 or higher (possibly 2007, but I haven't tested it). There is also an older database for Access 2007 users with the old Calendar Control, and a database for 2003 users in MDB format.

Full Video Seminar

If you would like to learn how this database was built, again, pick up a copy of my Access Calendar Seminar. It covers all of the basics. If you want to see how this database, specifically, was built, then let me know. if enough people are interested, I'll record it as a separate lesson.
