Missing "Calendar Control" VB option in Excel for XP

Hey all,

Ok, i found a website that explains how to add a quick reference calendar for adding dates in excel. It's here: Excel Calendar Control. How to create a live Excel Calendar with VBA.

Now, i get stuck in the middle because the "calendar control" option doesnt appear in my list of addition controls.... you'll know what i mean when you see the page..... How can i get this?

Thanks,

Matt

I had exactly this problem, built my application in Excel 2000 and upon update to XP, lost the calendar control on most XP workstations.
There should be a c:\WINNT\System32\mscal.ocx file present.
If there isn't it needs to be installed from the Office CD. (I cheated and just copied the file from a 2000 workstation and it worked).
