Default Calendar drop down

OK. Everybody refers to Ron de Bruin for how this is done. I do it...a
calendar appears and that's it. I can't make a selection, I can't get rid of
the calendar even if I click on another cell. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Ron,

Using Excel 2003, windows XP. When I open the calendar control, the box
with the triangle (DESIGN?) shows too.

Maybe you have another program installed that install this control
After you insert it do you see the "Exit Design mode" button on your screen ?

Click on it to exit design mode
Now the event code will work on the control

I click InsertObjectCalendar Control. A calendar appears along with the
design mode box. Whether I X it or not, the calendar stays, and no selection
as to actual date is made.
