Why is my date 2 days off?

You need to set the DateOffset Property. This property specifies the offset value used to calculate the base date for the date calculations. By default, the base date of the control is January 1 / 1900. However, some other languages may use a different base date. Both Visual Basic and Access use a base date of December 30 / 1899. Therefore, if you set this property to a value of 2, date values between the host language and the control will match up.
