How to Install Microsoft Date & Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP4)
In the posting “Insert a Drop Down Calendar Menu In Excel – Choose a Date!” one of the steps requires that you select the Microsoft Date & Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP4).
Looking for it? Trying to figure out where to download it from? If it is not installed on your system you can download it here.
To unzip a CAB file simply follow the directions in the posting “A Free Alternative to Winzip or WinRar: 7-Zip”

I’ve tried 6 times in the last 12 hours to install DTPicker control in my newly downloaded version if O365 on my new machine with new Windows added security. Have done this many times b4 successfully with other laptops with no issues. DTPicker appeared in More Controls box and everything was fine.
Followed these steps as before:
to register mscomct2.ocx. download to download folder.
Extract to desktop.
Move file to c:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder.
at admin command prompt (run using Powershel)l type at default prompt without changing directory
regsvr32 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\mscomct2.ocx
FOR SOME REASON, THE CONTROL IS NOT APPEARING IN THE ACTIVEX CONTROL BOX.
I can’t seem to figure out what’s wrong. I’ve completely disabled Windows Defender and the DTPicker is still not in the More Controls box.
Please help, if anyone knows what’s wrong.
Thx for anyone’s help. cr car1946@gmail.com
