I assume you are talking about ASP.NET, in which case you can use the "System.Web.UI.WebControls.Calendar" control.

You can (and I quote from MSDN) "Use the Calendar control to display a single month of a calendar on a Web page. The control allows you to select dates and move to the next or previous month."

You can make a calander from scratch of course too, but this would mean a lot of code. If you use the asp.net calander control it would be a lot less work (though it does not give you as much freedom).

Best thing you can do is read the MSDN page about the .NET Calendar web control...
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ClassTopic.asp

You can either set the Calendar in your .aspx file, or (as I assume you're using a VB code-behind file) you can create the Calendar in the code-behind file and attach it as a child to a control in the .aspx file.

If you are interested in particular things happening when you select a date, think about handling the public "SelectedChanged" event (which involves a post-back of the page containing the control).
Or even handling the "DayRender" event, which will allow you to alter the individual days as they are being rendered.
