Chad, You may well be right - just looking at Microsoft Outlook 2003.jss uses a bunch of other binaries, which I haven't got time to skim through at the moment. Bad show on Fs, though, surely - overriding a default function without providing a fallback to basic functionality in a single application?

Check out the following object pointer to the MS Calendar object: "MSCAL.Calendar" You can instantiate your object pointer by using GetObject or CreateObject just as with other libraries, and you can use the Month, Day, and Year properties of this class.
