Here is a VB6 routine I wrote some time ago I think does just what you want. It uses an ODBC connection to an Access database.

Private Sub Calendar1_Click()
    'Set the reminder date for this quote
    varDateYear = Calendar1.Year
    varDateMonth = Calendar1.Month
    varDateDay = Calendar1.Day
    varReminderDate = varDateMonth & "/" & varDateDay & "/" & varDateYear
    
    '=====================
        Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") '***'
        Set rs = CreateObject("adodb.recordset")
        cn.Open "QuoteDB", "admin", ""

        strSQL = "UPDATE [Quotes] SET "
        strSQL = strSQL & "[Reminder] = #" & varReminderDate & "#"
        strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE [ID] = " & Form1.varQuoteID
        Set rs = cn.Execute(strSQL)
        cn.Close
    '=====================
    
    MsgBox ("A reminder for this quote has been set for " & varReminderDate)
End Sub

Calendar1.value will return the date selected from the calendar, so you can add it your database by;
1. directly using adodc1.addnew, or
2. inserting the calendar value in a textbox that is connected to the adodc control.
