You most likely have a calendar ActiveX control installed on your
system. This was part of the original ActiveX demo, and the calendar
works pretty well.

The control isn't installed by LV. It is an ActiveX control, and is
installed by some MS application like Outlook or something. For details
about ActiveX controls, you may want to refer to the manuals. For a
crash course, drop a
n ActiveX container on the panel, popup in it and
choose Insert Object... or something similar. A dialog will then show
you the controls, servers, and documents that you can insert. The
calendar is one of them, and once dropped, you can acess it
programmatically through Property nodes and Invoke nodes. Again, these
controls aren't built into LV and are a bit more difficult to figure
out, but they are quite powerful, especially at extending LV with
controls that aren't built in.
