Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. Peter Hibbs <peter.hibbs[ at ]btinternet.com.NO_SPAM> 12/27/2008 4:11:30 PM Access 2003. I am using the Popup Calendar from Allen Browne. What I would like to happen is when the user clicks on the calendar button on the form (which is positioned immediately to the right of the associated date field), is for the popup calendar form to be positioned at the same co-ordinates as the button instead of in the middle of the form. That is, the top left corner of the popup calendar to be the same as the top left corner of the calendar button. I may have to ensure that the buttons are not near the right or bottom edges of the form but that should be possible. At the moment I don't see any easy way to do this so I am wondering if anyone has done this and would like to share the code. Peter Hibbs.

"Linq Adams via AccessMonster.com" <u28780[ at ]uwe> 12/27/2008 4:53:46 PM There may be a slicker way to do this, but I simply open the calendar form in Design View and using trial and error position it. Move the form where you think it should be, click on save and close without doing anything else. Open your main form and click on your button. Repeat this until you get it positioned like you want it. -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!

Re: Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. Peter Hibbs <peter.hibbs[ at ]btinternet.com.NO_SPAM> 12/27/2008 5:02:21 PM And what happens if you have more than one calendar button on the form (as I have)? Peter Hibbs.

Re: Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. "Jeanette Cunningham" <nnn[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> 12/28/2008 8:58:37 AM Hi I used some similar code to do the same thing using A2003. When the database was used in A2007 (as an .mde), the date control and the button/image froze whenever the calendar button/icon was clicked. I ended up needing to remove all the code to position the calendar. By the way, I was also using Allen Browne's popup calendar.

Re: Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. Peter Hibbs <peter.hibbs[ at ]btinternet.com.NO_SPAM> 12/28/2008 9:56:51 AM Jeanette, Thanks for that tip, this database will very likely be used on A2007 at a later date so I will test any code I use on that version first. As a matter of interest, did you manage to determine why the code did not work and would it have been possible to disable the calendar code if it is being used under Access 2007 (since this facility is built in on that version).

Re: Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. Mishanya 12/30/2008 12:31:01 PM Hi Piter I've had the same issue with having more then one calling-a-calenader button on my form. Ended up with copy of the calendar-form for every button (with small respective adjustments in the buttons code) and positioning them thru opening in DesignView and saving in the needed spot. Seems like the most simple solution not requiring cubersome extra code - just a few more same forms in the DB.

Re: Allen Browne Popup Calendar - Positioning Form. "Pete D." <pduffy211AT[ at ]coxDOT.net> 12/30/2008 10:27:29 PM What about the movesize command? Relitive to the top left corner.
