The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Outlook 97

SUMMARY

The Outlook 97 calendar control cannot be used on a custom Outlook form page or with other programs.

MORE INFORMATION

The Outlook appointment, task, contact, and journal forms contain a dropdown calendar which allows you to select a date by clicking the desired day on the calendar. This feature is internal to Outlook and you cannot access it from another program because it is not a separate control.

To see the calendar feature, open a new appointment and click the arrow to the right of the Start date or End date fields. Outlook will display a small monthly calendar where you can click to select a date.
