Date selection

I am using Livecode Community Edition 7.0.0 build 10018 on a laptop running Windows 7 Professional.

I need a date selection facility whereby at the push of a button a calendar is displayed so that a specific date can be selected and thereafter inserted into a field. I am creating an app for PC'S (desktop) usage.

I have tried all the LC specific third party offerings without success. I have been programming for over 30 years in Clarion and am astounded at this.

Any ideas

Sincerely
Derek Henderson

Hi Derek,
Have you used Sarah Reichelt's calendar?

I'm using it on Mac/Win/iOS/Droid with few adaptations.

Hi Simon
I have put the calendar stack into my app stack.
In my app stack I have placed a button and a field on a card.
When I click the button the calendar is displayed perfectly and I can select a date.
My problem now is what code is required and where to place it for the selected date to appear in the field.
I appreciate all advice in this regard.
Many thanks
Derek Henderson
