Thank you for the reply Sue, I omitted to mention that I am using Outlook
2007 Professional. So if there is a way that I may design a form which I can
use to keep tabs on my clients this would be most helpful. Leon

In versions before Outlook 2007, Outlook has no date picker control available to programmers (which, by the way, is one reason why the first page of the appointment, journal, and task forms is not editable). See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=26 for controls you can add.

Outlook 2007 includes its own Outlook-aware date and time picker controls for use with the new form regions feature, but not with traditional custom forms.

I use Tasks to keep a record of my dealings with clients. I have been trying
to design a Task form which allows me to inter alia keep a record of each
discussion. On Page 2 I've tried to set up a number of "Contact Date" fields.
I've set up each field as a Date field but I don't get a drop down pointer
which allows me to enter a date from the calendar. I have to enter the date
by typing it in. Is there a way of setting up each field to bring up the
calendar?
