I have the feeling that you missed the great honor and privilege to work with M$ finest technologies you can see in action and i mean ActiveX and COM. What a joy to the world.
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

I really don't understand why everything has to be so complicated when it comes to 64 bit. It's not exactly like it's a new technology... 
I've also run across several things that work perfectly fine in 32 bits, but not at all in 64 bits...

I dream of the day of working in a 64bit environment.
Hell our legacy system is still in MS Access 2000 running on a 32bit XP.
I have a feeling that Windows Whine will have died the moment we leave XP at this rate

Actually spend time on their most profitable product line? That's just silly. Better to spend time and money messing up all the icons and colors in Visual Studio, creating an abominable site for App Store developers and developing a tablet nobody wants.

You may be able to create your own DateTimePicker control using VB.Net. The only reason I say "may be able to" is because I do not have Office 64 to test this, but it works great for my 32 bit Office 2007.
Microsoft released a SDK to create ActiveX controls in VB.Net that can be hosted in VB6 and the created controls work great in Excel as well. The SDK is targeted to VS2008 and VS2010 and installs a template for creating am ActiveX UserControl in VB.Net.
Back to the future! – New version of the VB6 InteropForms toolkit is released!![^]
Microsoft InteropForms Toolkit 2.1[^]
As this was designed for VB6, the template targets x86. This in itself is appropriate, but the ninnies did this under the AnyCPU configuration. So you think AnyCPU is targeted, but in reality it is x86; I mention this because I think you will want to target AnyCPU for this to work with Office 64 bit.

...you see a clickbait link titled "The Surprising Link Between MS and Sunshine" and wonder how anyone could be surprised about Microsoft being run by a bunch of sunshines.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
