Popup Calendar in a Form
Here's what we mean by a popup calendar in a form. Below is a form that has a date of birth field.
When the user clicks on the button to the right, a popup calendar will appear.
The user can then select the date from the calendar object and click on the "Set Date" button to return the value to the originating form.
Popup Calendar in a Subform
Here's what we mean by a popup calendar in a subform. Below is a form that contains a subform. In that subform, there is a date of birth field.
When the user clicks on the button to the right, a popup calendar will appear.
The user can then select the date from the calendar object and click on the "Set Date" button to return the value to the originating form/subform.
