I want to use the activeX calendar that I've seen used in VB applications and some Microsoft websites to popup to allow a user to pick a date and then have the chosen date populate a text field instead of having to type the date in manually.

Does anyone know how to do this or have a similar solution?

BTW, I would suggest using a Javascript (preferable) or Java-based approach, which are both cross-platform compatible, rather than activeX, if this is for a web site, and you want your pop-up calendar to work with Netscape and other non-IE browsers!
