   FWIW, the only action in a Close button event should be "Unload Me".  The   
   End statement is *never* needed in a VB application and can cause harm if   
   used to end an app before all cleanup has been done.  It's nearly impossible   
   to use End completely safely.  Don't use it.

   It's a bug with the MonthView so you've either got to not use that control   
   or work around it somehow.
