Default Pop-up Calendars in an Excel Spreadsheet

Hi,

I have checked every resource I can find (including Microsoft online help),
but cannot find a solution to my problem.

I am wanting to assign a pop-up calendar to a column of cells in an Excel
spreadsheet so that when I click on the cell the pop-up calendar (current
month)will appear so that I can select a date from either the existing month
showing or scroll through using arrow buttons on the calendar to future
months. Once I select a date, I want the date to appear in text form within
the cell (much like what Microsoft Money does when entering a transaction
date). I am positive I have seen such feature in a previous Excel
spreadsheet (which I, unfortunately, dont have and dont remember where I
saw it).



Please tell me that this can be done and, if so, how to do it. I am only
generally versed in Excel (up to the point of functions, but not Pivot
Tables, ActiveX or Macros). If you feel this would be beyond my scope, could
you please provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to build a single
column of about 1,000 cells with a pop-up calendar assigned to each cell?

In case it is necessary, I have Microsoft Excel 2003 running on Windows XP
Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 2.
