    Using Datepicker in Userform VBA compatible to Excel 2013 64bit and 2007 32bit

    Hi everyone,

    I need to create a userform activity record by date.xlsm where i want to change the textbox1 into datepicker so that I don't have to type it incoherently.

    Furthermore, the file is intended compatible with two versions of Microsoft Office Excel to work with, namely 2013 version with 64-bit and 2007 version with 32-bit.

    I have been trying to change the textbox1 into datepicker for weeks already as I am unable to find solution.

    Appreciate for helping me on this one.

    Thanks.

    Hi ashburnadam,

    Bad news and Good News.

    Bad: DatePicker is not compatible with 64 bit Excel.

    Good: There are alternatives. See post #13 and #16 in the following thread for links to free 100% VBA alternatives:

    @Lewis - you're right, that's why I use a decent alternative that is rather flexible.
    I don't get why there's no default datepicker control in excel that is a) compatible with multiple excel versions and b) portable...
    Anyway, check out my attached file, that seems to work fine

    Hi JasperD, I am referring to the attached file. It did work in my PC (Office 2013 Student Edition 64-bit) but not with my laptop (Office 2013 Professional Edition 64-bit). I haven't try it in 2007 32-bit pc yet.

    It says "compile error: the code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems. Please review and update Declare statements and then mark them with PtrSafe attribute."

    Thanks for your effort.

    Hi JasperD,

    Currently I can only select the date using mouse only. How I can code it so that keyboard also will enable to select it? (I mean using Tab on keyboard for scrolling).

    Thanks.

    Do what it says - update them with the PtrSafe attribute

    To answer your other question - it can be done, but it's too much work for me to do so ;-)

    I have been trying to find the solutions to PtrSafe attribute. How do I update them.

    I am so confusing right now.

    Re: Using Datepicker in Userform VBA compatible to Excel 2013 64bit and 2007 32bit

    I realize I am resurrecting an old thread, however, I am looking to use a date picker option for a macro I am using - I want to print a selection of sheets in a workbook based on a date in a particular cell on each sheet. I have the macro working, however, I would like to use a date picker to select the date versus entering it manually. I took a brief look at the date picker in the above file. I'm sure I can figure it out, was just wandering if there is something Microsoft has recently added? I will take a closer look at this and see if I can get it to work for my purposes.
