I have a strange thing happening I have been working with Outlook and Excel VBA for maybe 5 years or so and have been using the Date Time Picker for all of that time, it has just started giving me some weird grief. I have registered the mscomct2.ocx on my PC and that hasnt changed for all the time. Recently whenever I save a form with a Date Time Picker on it the form loads with "could not load an object because it is not available on this machine" error and the date time picker is missing, and no matter what I do I cannot get this to register, please please can someone help me! I have no idea what has happened! thanks in advance, John
